The fifth generation of the iconic 911 Turbo arrived as not only the fastest street-legal 911 of its time but also the most refined. The all-wheel-drive sports car heralded the arrival of water cooling in the 911 with its twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter flat-six engine producing 415 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque, enabling it to reach 60 miles per hour in just 3.9 seconds with a top speed of 192 mph. Enthusiasts and industry publications alike were enamored with its performance, with Car and Driver calling the new Turbo "simply intoxicating."

This 2001 Porsche 911 Turbo is presented in vibrant Guards Red over Savannah Beige full leather upholstery with Pepita red/white/black seat inserts. Its classic color combination is complemented by optional amenities including stainless-steel door entry guards with logo, aluminum-inlaid shifter knob and handbrake lever, dual heated front seats, the Nokia Digital Sound Processing audio system, and a Becker-Porsche CDC-3 six-disc CD changer. Desirably, the Turbo was commissioned with a driver-focused six-speed manual transaxle, sending 415 horsepower to all four wheels.

The accompanying CARFAX Vehicle History Report shows that the car was initially registered in Maryland, with consistent documented maintenance from Valley Motors, Inc. through 2009. Passing to a new owner in 2009 at approximately 18,583 miles, the Turbo spent time in Pennsylvania until 2020, with subsequent registration history in Florida and Nevada.

Now offered with just 24,462 miles at the time of cataloging, this attractive 911 Turbo is accompanied by its owner's manuals, toolkit, and jack. Representing one of the most potent and capable sports cars of its time, this Turbo continues to offer impressive performance even by today's standards.
