Real sport ride only with Porsche 911 Carrera 4S


Porsche 911 4S 2012


The GTS is the swan song of the 997. That's all Porsche has learned during the current occupation of 911 distilled in a package that is designed for drivers, street racers weekends. The specifications not particularly impressive acceleration and does not deform the continuous space / time as some other 911, but this is not the point. This is the best 911 right now because it promotes and encourages. He delights in his benefactions parties as few things we brought. It is pure, but not unbalanced. It is a love letter to someone smart enough to roll to elect other horse mackerel variants 911 (a few million, if you do the math).

Let's start with the output. The standard Carrera S (again, 997) is equipped with 385 horsepower from its 3.8-liter flat-six. GTS-ups played at 408 horsepower at 7300 rpm with the default installation option Powerkit $ 16,900 (tweaks to the respiratory intake and exhaust) 997 S. School Leavers But amazingly enough, the couple who impressed at the wheel. Twist is up to 310 lb.-ft. at 4200 rpm, but with 238 lb-ft is available almost from idle, the linearity of his performance shining through and achieves a race of 4.4 miles per second to 60 hours.

You have more than 3000 rpm to push the value to your order, which means playing with the glorious - and standard - six-speed manual is minimized when knocking in the corners. An optional PDK dual-clutch automatic order an additional $ 4320, but only the seriously allergic three-foot-nix is ​​recommended, with his staff of precise and clear shots, but made clutch. Like this configuration around the city, not bear it.

Other features included are 19-inch centre-lock wheels shod with Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 black (front and rear 235/35 R19 305/30 R19) runs over $ 6K at the dealership, while the front and sports steering wheel design, interior plaster Alcantara and other trinkets that varied with the price of its false in almost GT3 GTS range.

Our tester to the label, just north of $ 110 000 and is equipped with the bits that mattered, especially sports Chrono package ($ 960), Alcantara / leather buckets ($ 2,990) and a sport suspension that lowers the GTS an additional 20 mm and includes a limited slip differential ($ 950). All that is insignificant compared to what is already in the Black American Express - assuming you do not have the option of ceramic brakes option of $ 8150, but still ...
On the issue of suspension is the inability of the GTS alone - at least around the city. Bosses, pushing all sorts of imperfections and asphalt are directly sent over 30 rounds gum before attacking his position as a dominatrix for a good tip. It is brutal, but it is far from being comfortable up to speed. And it is magic.
