The 911 range is now more complete with the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS, which promises to be a true gourmet appetizer for those who don't want something as hardcore as the GT3.
Porsche chose to keep its trump cards well hidden up its sleeve, leaving the new GTS versions of the Porsche 911 outside the Paris Motor Show and opting to publicize them after the event.
The new Porsche 911 Carrera GTS will be available in 4 versions, the first 2 will be the Coupé and Convertible versions and the remaining 2 refer to the 911 Carrera 4 GTS, with all-wheel drive also available in coupé and convertible bodywork.

To further spice up the recipe for the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS, Porsche did not limit itself to operating «RICE» concepts (race inspired cosmethics aesthetics). For kids, there's more to the aesthetic details of the body than the body with wider lanes, black painted graphics, chromed tailpipes and the wonderful 20-inch wheels with center stud.
Porsche went a little further, just like the previous Porsche 911 Carrera GTS: the power of the 6-cylinder boxer with 3.8l climbed an interesting 30 hp compared to the 911 Carrera S, a little more lung for the bright atmospheric flat six .

To underline the sportier character of the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS, Porsche offers the Sport Chrono package as standard and the PASM active suspension, which makes it possible to reduce the height of the body to the ground by 10mm from speeds only permitted on the motorway.
Speaking of motorways, the efficiency of the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS has not been forgotten and when combined with the PDK box, it achieves fuel consumption very similar to the Porsche 911 Carrera S versions. As for performance, this was reinforced with the addition of power: it only takes 4 seconds for the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS Coupé to accelerate from 0 to 100km/h, with the cabrio losing just 0.2 seconds. The top speed breaks the 300km/h barrier, being faster with manual gearbox, reaching 306km/h.
In the list of desirable options to make up the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS, Porsche left the bi-xenon lighting system integrated with the Porsche Dynamic Light System and an essential sports exhaust.
The great obstacle of the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS will undoubtedly be its price. For Portugal, values in the order of €140,000 are expected for the Coupé and €154,000 for the cabrio version, the Carrera 4 GTS versions will have an increase of around €8000 respectively, as well as the PDK box is worth amounts in the order of 4800€.
