Porsche is sending its second generation of the 911 Carrera GTS to the starting line. Four models - a coupe and a cabriolet, each with rear-wheel or all-wheel drive - now close the gap between the 911 Carrera S and the street-legal sports car optimised for the race track, the 911 GT3. Some of the technical ingredients that generate even more driving dynamics and driving fun: 430 hp (316 kW) power, the Sport Chrono package and the PASM active damper system which lowers the car's ride height by ten millimetres. Improved efficiency has also led to quicker accelerations and higher top speeds, but combined fuel consumption figures remain unchanged at the favourable level of the S models. When combined with the Porsche Doppelkupplungsgetriebe (PDK), the 911 Carrera GTS sprints from zero to 100 km/h in 4.0 seconds (Cabriolet: 4.2 seconds). The top speed of each GTS model is beyond the 300 km/h barrier; the fastest at 306 km/h is the Coupe with a manual transmission and rear-wheel drive.

When adjusted for their additional features, the new top models are attractive in price as well. A number of options are included as standard, such as bi-xenon headlights with the Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS) and the sport exhaust system for unmistakable GTS sound. The driver and front passenger also sit in an exclusive Alcantara interior with leather-trimmed sport seats whose centre panels are made of Alcantara as on the other GTS models by Porsche.

The exteriors of the new 911 cars - like all GTS models by Porsche - differ significantly from the other Carrera models. All models have the 911 Carrera 4 body with wide-flared rear wheel arches and a wide track. Also standard are 20-inch wheels with centre wheel locks, which are painted in an exclusive matt black. Accentuating the front end are special trim elements and smoked bi-xenon headlights. Black trim strips on the customised GTS air intake screen and black chrome-plated exhaust tailpipes characterise the rear of the GTS.

I wonder if this model is a quick response to the Mercedes AMG GT with 462hp!
 
Actually quite funny that the wheels are a similar design to those on the AMG GT! This car does look very nice I must say!

The previous genaration Turbo also shared a similar wheel design with the previous genaration CLS AMG.:LOL:

I'll take this please.

First cars will arrive in European showrooms this November, with North America to get the 911 GTS in December.

Great looking car. If I was in the market for a 911 Carrera S or 4S with the powerkit, this GTS version is slam dunk winner. I love the blacked out rear engine cover grill. The rims are hot too.

On the other hand, it would have been a REAL winner if it got at least some of the goodies from the GT3. Not everything, but at least one of the following features: the revised electric power steering, rear wheel steering, or the PDK-S.

Interesting that a GTS version is introduced relatively early in the life of the 991. Makes me think that the next facelifted version of the 911 will have completely different powertrains (like turbo's.).
 
I like it - a lot.

It's got: a lovely classiness and a classy loveliness all together now...

A great 'tweener 911 for those not wanting to make the push all the way to the epic GT3 and rather settle for a less hardcore on-road machine.
 
Not a fan of black rims. But otherwise, I cannot think of an automobile more desirable. In coupe form.
 
Damn.....needs to be debadged ASAP! All that text in different fonts on the back is fugly as hell! Take it all OFF!

Agree - I'd ask them to leave P O R S C H E there and debadge the Carrera GTS wording.

Oh... and I'd be tempted to pull a Marcus and go for the GTS RWD Drop-top. So many cars in one!
 
I wish I could have gotten those rear seats in my GT3. I would have gladly accepted whatever weight penalty there is.
