The New Porsche 911 Carrera – Best One Ever?

Finally Porsche has revealed its latest version of the classic 911 with the new Carrera GTS.

The GTS version of the 911 follows on from the GTS versions of the Boxer, Cayman and Panamara. The GTS versions of all of these cars offer better performance, looks and handling.

Check out the promo video here. Looks great to me!

Available in coupé or convertible form, and with a choice of two or four-wheel drive, the 911 Carrera GTS will feature a 3.8-litre flat-six engine delivering 424bhp – 30bhp more than the 911 Carrera S power unit on which it’s based.

The new model will also feature special centre-locking alloy wheels

Equipped with Porsche’s PDK dual-clutch automatic gearbox, the GTS will be able to hit 62mph from a standstill in four seconds dead, or 4.2 seconds for the convertible version. Meanwhile, the two-wheel-drive GTS with the seven-speed manual transmission will give a top speed of 198mph.

Porsche adds that improved efficiency means the GTS will return the same fuel consumption figures as the S version, despite the improved acceleration and higher top speeds.

The GTS will feature a number of features that are optional on lesser 911s as standard. The Sport Chrono package, for example, gives the GTS dynamic engine mounts, while active dampers will adjust the firmness of the suspension automatically, as well as lowering the ride height by 10mm.

A sports exhaust will also come as standard, as will an Alcantara-trimmed interior with leather sports seats.
On the outside, the GTS will feature the same wider body as the 911 Carrera 4, which will allow for a wider track. Twenty-inch centre-locking alloy wheels, smoked Xenon headlamps, and a smattering of gloss black trim complete the picture.

The 911 Carrera GTS is on sale now, with the first deliveries expected in November. Prices start at £91,098 for the two-wheel-drive coupe.
