After introducing the 911 Targa 4S Heritage Design Edition with mid-century design elements in 2020, Porsche has now introduced the most powerful 911 with manual transmission. It is the second of four planned models from Porsche’s ‘Heritage Design’ story, and fans of traditional models will be delighted by the fact that the Porsche 911 Sport Classic will not be offered in combination with all-wheel drive and automatic transmission.

The car is based on a 70s model, the 911 Carrera RS, and is powered by a 3.7-liter twin-turbo flat-six engine with 550 hp (405 kW). Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a 7-speed manual transmission. It is mounted on 20/21-inch alloy wheels.

“The new 911 Sport Classic is the first vehicle to feature Sport Gray Metallic paintwork,” says Michael Mauer, Vice President Style Porsche. Also, the car will be offered in Black, Agate Gray Metallic, Gentian Blue Metallic or Paint to Sample. Inside, the seats are upholstered in black leather and a Pepita pattern that can also be seen on the door panels.

The 911 Sport Classic is equipped with adjustable suspension with standard Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) and has a 10-millimeter-lower ride height. The roof and front cover are made of carbon.

Porsche will produce only 1,250 copies of this model, and the first copies will arrive in European showrooms in the second half of the year with a price of 272,714 euros.
