Porsche 911 Turbo S with Lightweight kit

The Porsche 911 Turbo S with the optional Lightweight kit is actually the fastest 911 in acceleration from 0-60 mph, according to Car and Driver. The car managed to reach the stated speed on an unprepared surface in just 2.1 seconds, which is faster than the Tesla Model S Plaid.

Under the hood is a 3.7-liter flat-six twin-turbo engine with 640-hp (471 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to all wheels via an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic PDK transmission. It reaches 62 mph in an impressive 2.3 seconds with a top speed of 205 mph (330 km / h).

It may not be a surprise if we look at what the Lightweight Kit brings. First of all, the rear seats have been removed, the front seats are made of carbon fiber, there is lighter glass and the sound insulation has been reduced, which ultimately means that the car is 36 kg lighter than the base model. Thanks to the active suspension, the vehicle is 0.4 inches closer to the ground.

The price of the Lightweight kit is $ 10,340, and the price of the base model Porsche 911 Turbo S is $ 207,000. This means that almost $ 220,000 needs to be set aside for this model, which is not an insignificant amount.
