The New Porsche 911Turbo--the Most Potent and Capable Yet

ATLANTA - June 21, 2006

Porsche is set to unleash the newest and flat-out fastest version of what many consider the world's best performing and most technologically advanced sports cars in the world beginning this week at Porsche dealerships across North America. The 2007 911 Turbo goes on sale June 24, 2006 in North America. The official on-sale date is June 24 in the U.S. and in Canada.

The ground-breaking 2007 911 Turbo--the sixth generation of what is the ultimate version of the venerable 911 model--provides towering performance in a practical, stylish and functional package suitable for everyday use. Unlike other sports car exotics that end up spending most days stored for special drive time, the 911 Turbo's virtuoso performance is ready for commuting through a workday or letting go on a race track.

For the first time, the 911 Turbo is able to reach 60 mph from a standing start in less than four seconds thanks in part to the new Turbo's power that comes from a revolutionary, 480-horsepower, twin-turbocharged, 3.6-liter boxer engine featuring Porsche's first application of variable turbine geometry (VTG). The new 911 Turbo also offers a redesigned, electronically controlled all-wheel-drive system, and evolutionary styling.

I'm really liking the new details like the foglights on the front CORNERS of the bumper and especially those floating alien-like LED front indicators in the right and left grills. Twin turbocharger, variable turbine geometry (VTG) and electronically controlled all-wheel-drive --- 0-60 mph in 3.4 sec, that's what I call some Porsche goodness.

I can't wait! One of the magazines previewed it and they did 0-60MPH in 3.2 secs :eek: with the Tiptronic S tranny.

And on an icy runway in the winter :thumbsup: Motor trend I think it was.

Also the tip is faster I believe, because you can build boost at a standstill and launch with boost.
