Porsche 911 Sport Classic
This very special version of the 911 has been developed over a period of three years from the original concept to the final production vehicle, receiving the most thorough attention to detail.
The 911 Sport Classic caters for a particularly demanding group of Porsche customers and comes in a production run limited to just 250 cars worldwide. Extra engine power, the unique exterior with a new front and rear end, the new centre section in the roof, new sidesills and wheels, new design of the front and rear lights as well as the rear spoiler full of character prove the high technical standard of this very special project.
All 250 cars in this small series come in the exclusive new paintwork colour Sport Classic Grey, discreet dark trim strips accentuating the unique character of the car.
The very sophisticated and elegant interior in Espresso Nature sets new standards, going beyond even the well known customisation of the interior already offered by Porsche Exclusive.
The most essential specifications of the 911 Sport Classic highlight the supreme class and quality of the car right from the start: 3.8-litre six-cylinder horizontally-opposed power unit developing 408 bhp (300 kW); six-speed manual gearbox; rear-wheel drive; acceleration from 0 – 100 km/h in 4.6 seconds; top speed 302 km/h (187 mph); fuel consumption in the New European Driving Cycle 10.6 ltr/100 km (equal to 26.6 mpg imp).
The looks of this very special 911 are convincing right from the start, the SportDesign front panel with its purpose-built spoiler lip providing an aerodynamic balance with the rear spoiler and strongly emphasising the unique face of the 911 Sport Classic. The bi-xenon headlights with dynamic bending lights come as standard with black surrounds, taking up a special feature with a long tradition at Porsche already to be admired on famous racing cars in the history of the company, such as the 911 Turbo RSR in 1974. On the 911 Sport Classic these headlights with their black rings supplement other features finished in black such as the air intake grids, the mirror triangles and the lower sections on the mirror base.
The double-dome roof stands out clearly at very first sight from the front, again bearing reference to a long tradition already to be admired on the 911 Panamericana show car and in the roofline of the Carrera GT.
Through their unique shape, the side-sills emphasise the substantial width of the car at the rear: While the limited edition 911 Sport Classic is based on the 911 Carrera S, it comes with a rear end 44 millimetres (1.73”) wider and with rear track up by 34 millimetres or 1.34” for even more dynamic performance with substantial lateral acceleration.
An important feature not visible from the outside but highly relevant in practice is the use of aluminium on the doors which, together with other technologies, helps to set off the extra weight of the wide range of standard equipment.
