Vehicle Description
2007 Porsche 911 Turbo
Throughout its 55 years of existence, the Porsche 911 has
accomplished many great feats. Probably the most iconic Porsche
ever, the 911 has had many variants and forms over its lifetime.
Originally named the '901' in 1963, Porsche had to rename it as the
'911' as French auto maker Peugeot said he had a trademark on
"digit-zero-digit" named models. The Porsche 911 is only
manufactured in the Stuttgart, Germany factory, making about 110
Porsche 911 models a day.
For consignment, a silver streaking in the form of a 2007 911
Turbo, or should I say twin turbo. Yup this German piece of
automotive beauty pumps out a whopping 480hp and can carve curves
with the best of them thanks to being all wheel drive. Also with a
Promotive performance chip and fab speed air filters and a Porsche
GT2 clutch, boogitty boogitty boogiotty let's go racin' boyz and
girlz.
Exterior
When Ferdinand Alexander Porsche penned this car design back in the
early 1960's he had no clue of how it was going to change his
company's life! It was an instant hit and has been getting better
ever since, and keeping the original concept since inception. I
guess you could say why mess with success? This 2007 iteration has
beautifully preserved GT Silver paint (is there any other color for
Porsche?). Aero inset high intensity head lighting, very clean
lines with all expertly minded gaps, black trimmings and some
airflow venting in front and just before the rear wheel well.
Tinted glass resides under the wonderfully curved roofline,
complete with sunroof, tinted rear glass and a sexy spoiler on
back. Wrap around rear tail ligniting is flanking either side of
the "hatchback" lid and underneath a large body matching neoprene
bumper with 2 additional pads on either side of the plate, and some
through the bumper rectangular exhaust piping peeking out from
underneath. A few more vents for extra engine cooling are on the
bottom of the rear quarters, and the wheel wells frame 19-inch
snappy wheels with low profile gummy tires. What a wonderful piece
of German sculpted design made for racing, but this version can run
the roads with the best of them. Snell!
Interior
The typical Porsche enthusiast would expect nothing less than
comfortable, a bit edgy and of course leather for the interior and
with a swing of the doors, expectations met. Here we see molded
Terracotta orange door panels with black power toggles and knobs
accenting the Terracotta, and providing the functions for power
accessories. The door actuator is in another contrast with a
brushed aluminum look inset of the sculpting that's going on with
the aforementioned panels. Inside we are grabbed and held tightly
by Terracotta leather smooth high back buckets that have black tubs
with all the power adjustments to make it just right baby bear.
Racing through the center is a sexy console with more curves than
Uschi Obermaier. This houses a glove box/armrest, handbrake and
shift lever. As we make our way to the center of the dash from said
console, we are greeted with a litany of buttons for climate
controls digital readouts and a central screen showing navi, backup
cam and bluetooth functions for various hookups including a phone.
This is all in a black contrasting to the Terracotta panels, and
has a peppering of brushed aluminum surrounds on various parts. The
dash is a wonderful cascade of circular instruments, the central
tach protruding the most, and subsequent instruments in the round
and white faced, overlap just slightly as they descend to either
side of the tach. In the padded stitched Terracotta dash top center
is a lone boost gauge to keep your eyes on the pulse of the twin
turbos. Wonderfully clean Terracotta colored carpeting covers the
floors, and leads us to the back where 2 buckets in a bench
separated by the hump are shoehorned within passenger space. A
black headliner is above and is nice and tight and has the sunroof
to open and close within its confines. Sch�ne Terrakotta
Drivetrain
A pusher if you will, in the form of a 3.6 liter DOHC flat 6
cylinder with a twin turbo setup to make it go much faster. It
sports EFI and has Fab-Speed air filters. On the back is a 6 speed
manual transmission with a GT2 Porsche clutch. There is a 3.44 axle
on and all this is beautifully preserved and ultra clean in this
rear engine bay.
Undercarriage
All clean with no rust or corrosion seen among the mechanicals that
we can see that are not actually covered with the ground effect
panels the Germans just love to have on. Suspension is front
independent with Macpherson Struts, and back is an independent
multi link setup. Power disc braking is on all 4 corners and there
are factory headers for the spent gases that the twin turbos create
plenty of.
Drive-Ability
I hopped in and was in German sports car heaven. The seats just
grab your body and the car is ready to make love. It starts with a
roar, and it only gets better when it warms up. On the test track
it was a screaming meanie, with neck snapping speed, bias free
braking and it handled like it's on rails. 400 plus horses are just
plenty for this small car! Yikes... and all functions were working
Einfach operfekt.
Plenty of impressive things about this car among a few are the
iconic design, the twin turbos, and the sexy Terracotta interior
with the GT exterior Silver..Hi Ohhhh Silver... Giddyup!
