Wild in its infancy, the 911 Turbo became
a fury domesticated |
This year's 911 celebrates its 50th anniversary. To celebrate this event, the fifties to offer a particularly dynamic quadratic, namely its variant Turbo discount to date.
For Porsche, life seems to be smooth sailing. The news flow serenely pace of a model year, the 911 range is available in a ritual unchanged for ages. After the recent GT3, it is now the turn of the Turbo a facelift.
As usual, this gem of "11" seeks to balance performance and ability to travel. From this point of view, the 2013 vintage looks very promising. Since its launch 40 years ago, the Turbo has continued to mature, and this movement continues, although it is also capable of making waves. Thus, turning the Nürburgring, the Turbo would be able to complete a lap in "significantly less than 7 min 30", a time worthy of a Carrera GT. But the Turbo requires no concession to its supercar performance, quite the contrary. Declined the 991 generation, it inherits logically an elongated wheelbase 10 cm, for the benefit of space on board. It also retains its two rear seats and all-wheel drive, reassuring on slippery surfaces.

But that's not all. The GT3 also bequeathed him his rear wheel steering, new for Porsche, which is supposed to improve high-speed stability while promoting agility up to 50 km / h. A system that is also associated with active aerodynamics, modulated by the front spoiler retractable three positions, as well as the rear spoiler, which automatically deploys at higher speeds. Nothing in maximizing support with "Performance" mode, the driver would therefore gain two seconds per lap on the Nordschleife. But the engine is not there for nothing. The flat-six now assembles a cavalry of 520 hp or 560 hp for the Turbo S (500 against 530 previously), a stud that passes all four wheels via a 20-inch screen dual clutch seven-speed, series. 3.8 It remains the only supercharged gasoline market by two turbochargers with variable geometry block, and enough to catapult the new 911 Reference 3.2 s to 100 km / h. And if the pilot obstinately press the mushroom verve would stop at 318 km / h. Yet the mechanical claims a consumption decrease of 16%. While the Turbo is just as below 10 liters per 100 km, but it does not benefit from the tax bonus to ease the addition, which looks salty. Excluding penalty of € 6,000, € 163,919 for the count Turbo or 197,288 for the Turbo S. You have until September to convince your banker.
