Turbo S Launch

I assume that this will be online at 0900 March 3rd.

My OPC has been totally silent on the whole matter of the launch although I told them months ago that I was ready to order one.

No details whatsoever have been forthcoming.

 
So, 650ps, 0-62 in 2.7sec and top speed of 205mph. [8D]

Far too much grunt for an old boy like me! [8|]

Not on the configurator yet. :ROFLMAO:

Emailed my OPC but nothing heard yet.

Might be my last decent car, I've waited long enough for this particular car to replace my 991 Turbo S.

Here's a bit more gen on the new models:-

Unveiled in both coupƩ and cabriolet bodystyles, it retains a turbocharged 3.8-litre flat-six petrol engine, but is described as completely new with a new cooling and air intake system. The turbochargers are revised with larger turbine and compressor wheels. Power has risen by 69bhp and torque up by 37lb ft. So Turbo S has 641bhp and 590lb ft between 2500rpm and 4500rpm.

There's a new eight-speed dual-clutch gearbox and 4WD system delivering up to 369lb ft of torque to the front wheels.

Sprint performance to 120mph is a second fastener than before, at 8.9sec.

The car is wider with an increase of 20mm to 1900mm which accommodates a track 42mm wider at the front and 10mm wider at the rear. Wheels for the 911 Turbo S are 20" and 21" with 255/35 and 315/30 boots.

There are new PCCB's have 10 piston callipers at the front. Aero includes pneumatically extendible front spoiler and larger surface (and lighter) rear wing delivering 15% more downforce.

Interior upgrades are consistent with other 992 model series with GT multi-function steering wheel, a 10.9in Porsche Communication Management display, the Sport Chrono package with Porsche Track Precision app, 18-way adjustable sports seats and a Bose sound system as standard equipment.

UK pricing is yet to be announced but in Germany, this is equivalent to Ā£155,970 with the Cab at Ā£165,127.

More torques than a 720S ( but fewer horses)[:)] Managed to get up to Ā£174k...[8D] At least you stand a reasonable chance of getting one unlike some other models. I guess it could be the last hurrah before electricity makes an appearance....
