Technical
Specifications
Its legendary air-cooled,
horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine produces 282 horsepower. A manual
transmission with six speeds helps the 911 Carrera achieve a zero-to-sixty
time of just 4.9 seconds. The Carrera is also available with the Porsche
Tiptronic-S, a revolutionary dual-mode transmission system that allows
the convenience of an automatic or the active participation of clutch less
shifting. A cast-aluminum suspension translates weight savings into improved
handling, while an aluminum subframe uses rubber bushings to isolate the
suspension from the body for a quieter ride.
The Carrera is a
responsible sports car. Its active safety features include ABS-5, the most
advanced braking system of its kind. And, as with every Porsche, the passive
safety systems include standard dual airbags. Of course, within the Carrera,
you'll discover something else that's reassuring: the soul of a purebred
sports car.
