Low-Mileage Well-Maintained Turbo Coupe 500hp 3.8L Turbo 6 speed Sport Chrono

Is there any sports car manufacturer that's remained truer to its heritage than Porsche? The brand has single-handedly built an 86-year legacy out of performance-minded engineering while designing some of the most endearing cars ever produced. And today, as one of the most respected automobile entities on the planet, they enjoy a tremendous following that's spawned a positively gigantic support system. Introduced in late 1963, the legendary 911 kick started the marque's foray in to high performance royalty. And with the advent of this highly optioned stunner, the company seems more serious than ever about owning the sports car market. A true driver's car, this 6-speed 911 Turbo wraps world class vehicle dynamics in world class luxury. If you're looking for a cool modern classic that's comfortable, sporty and virtually guaranteed to be exclusive, this worldly coupe is just your style!

TAILORED APPEARANCE

A highly tweaked evolution of the 996, the 997 chassis allowed Porsche to keep up with the industry trend of seemingly endless refinement while perpetuating the brand's identity as a purveyor of hardcore sports cars. Dressed in a classy coat of Basalt Black Metallic, there's no doubt this 911 is both timeless and posh. Judging by appearance, that paint coats a pristine profile that's been meticulously pampered and carefully protected since it rolled off Porsche's Stuttgart assembly line. Naturally, lighting is some of the industry's latest technology, with Bi-Xenon headlamps complementing LED indicators, LED running lamps and optional clear LED taillights. A high level of fit and finish highlights a mixed material body that prominently features weight-saving aluminum. Painted spoilers include an extendable rear unit that automatically activates at 75 MPH, or manually with the push of a switch from inside the cabin. And overall, this awesome coupe sprints as one premier performer that's an easy equal for the world's most elite sports cars!

SMART POWER

Most enthusiasts consider the 911 Turbo the quintessential Porsche. Maybe it's because Porsche has spent literal decades refining the same proven design. Or maybe it's because the car is just very good at what it does. We like to think of this 997 as the best of both worlds, since it benefits from years of excellent engineering while retaining the visceral thrill of its manually shifted forerunners. That engineering begins with a 3.8 liter flat six that features niceties like an expansion intake, forged internals and dry-sump lubrication that's stewarded by an on-demand oil pump. Those essentials are paired with Direct Fuel Injection, VarioCam Plus timing and Variable Turbine Geometry that maximizes the twin fans' efficiency. That set-up, standard on all 911 Turbos, is good for an even 500 horsepower and an impressive 480 lb./ft. of torque, on the way to a 3.2-second 0-60 sprint and a 194 MPH top speed. We mentioned “standard” because this 911 Turbo has been optioned with Porsche's much-lauded Sport Chrono Package. Increasing pressure in the car's optimal boost range, the Sport Chrono Package adds 36 more lb./ft. of torque while simultaneously adjusting Dynamic Engine Mounts to ensure smooth and precise power delivery. Mechanically, there are no leaks or squeaks of any kind, and the car's refined engine bay appears just as clean as the day it rolled off the assembly line. And, best of all, the impressive mill represents purpose-built performance that'll fire up in any weather, drive thousands of miles before anyone needs to turn its bolts, and probably lay waste to pretty much anything that's brave enough to stage a challenge in a straight line or in the twisties.

REFINED DYNAMICS

Under the car, wind-cheating panels conceal a roster of technologically forward components. Quick cornering is achieved through Porsche Traction Management permanent all-wheel drive that's aided by optional Porsche Torque Vectoring. Speaking of brakes, stops are a cinch thanks to power-assisted Monobloc calipers, which push either four or six pistons against 13-inch cross-drilled rotors. Those brakes cradle electromechanical power steering, a fully independent sport suspension and Porsche Active Suspension Management, which pairs Porsche Stability Management with standard ABS. Stab the throttle and power spins through an old school, row-it-yourself 6-speed that's finished with standard Hill Assist. A dramatic soundtrack is provided by Porsche Sports Exhaust. And everything rolls on forged Turbo II wheels, which crank 235/35ZR19 in front of 305/30ZR19 Michelin Pilot Super Sports.

A COMFORTABLE DRIVER IS A BETTER DRIVER

Inside this slick 911, it's all about a symbiotic relationship between cutting edge European performance and traditional 'old world' luxury. At the center of the car, heated Sport seats feature 16-way power adjustment for the driver. A French-stitched dash hangs traditional 5-pod telemetry beside a prominent Sport Chrono gauge. State-of-the-art Porsche Communication Management pairs Bluetooth and standard voice activation with Bose surround sound and GPS navigation. At the center of the floor, a full-length console props an optional, body-matched gear selector on crisp, fade-free carpet. Sculpted door panels front power-operated windows, which reflect self-dimming, power-adjustable mirrors. The driver spins a heated steering wheel. And throughout the inviting cockpit you'll find the usual assortment of luxury and convenience features, including HomeLink and standard anti-theft technology.
