Half a century has passed since Porsche launched its first Turbo model on the market, and on this occasion the German manufacturer decided to launch a special limited edition, the 911 Turbo 50 Years. Only 1974 cars will be produced, which symbolizes the year when the Turbo model was first introduced to the public.
Its distinctive features, especially with the optional Heritage Design package, make it a highly desirable collector’s car among Porsche enthusiasts. The new Turbonite shade, which is exclusive to Porsche’s Turbo models, makes its debut on the 911 after appearing in palettes for the Taycan, Panamera, Macan and Cayenne models. This color is used on the rims, tailgate, fuel tank cap, Porsche logo and Turbo 50 badges, while the contrast is created by an anthracite gray color on the rear spoiler, mirrors, and intakes on the bumpers.
The profile of the car, with decals, is reminiscent of the livery of the Porsche 911 RSR Turbo concept from 1973, which was the basis for the upcoming 911 Turbo (930). On the engine cover is the marking “1974-2024”, while the turbo inscription appears in the light projection when opening the door. It is equipped with a new sports exhaust system with black tailpipes, PASM sports suspension that lowers the car by 100 mm, making its appearance more aggressive.
The interior is inspired by the Zeitgeist movement of the seventies, with MacKenzie tartan inserts on the seats and door panels, while Turbonite details the seat belts and contrast stitching. Perforated RaceTex material covers the ceiling. Turbo 50 badges adorn the illuminated door sills, headrests and numbered plate.
For those who want to stand out from the crowd, they can choose the “50 Years Turbo” Heritage Design package, which includes Aventurine Green Metallic body paint combined with a brilliant silver hood and optional silk matte decals reminiscent of vintage racing cars. Also, stickers can be partially or completely removed.
The 911 Turbo 50 Years is powered by a 3.7-L boxer twin-turbo engine with 641 hp (478 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque, paired with an 8-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission that sends power to all the wheels.
