Last month, Sime Darby Auto Performance (SDAP, the most delicious sounding acronym in the business) unveiled the seventh-generation Porsche 911 at Sepang, but didn’t give any Semenanjung prices, only the duty-free price list that read RM430k for the Carrera and RM490k for the Carrera S.
Now, SDAP has released the price rich boys and girls outside of Langkawi have to pay to take one home – RM800k for the Carrera and RM900k for the Carrera S, inclusive of duties and taxes, but without registration fee, road tax and insurance. What’s included are a four-year factory warranty and four-year complimentary service and maintenance package.
This latest 991 Series made its debut in Frankfurt last year. The Carrera is powered by a 3.4 litre flat-six (downsized from the previous 3.6 litre unit) with 350 hp and 390 Nm. It can do 0–100 km/h in just 4.4 seconds before reaching a 287 km/h top speed.
The Carrera S retains a 3.8 litre engine, and its 400 hp/440 Nm output is 15 hp and 20 Nm more than before. This one does the century sprint in 4.1 seconds and tops out at 302 km/h. Both variants are equipped with a seven-speed dual-clutch PDK transmission.
