PROS: The 911 Turbo delivers blistering performance, looks great and is surprisingly practical for a car which delivers supercar performance.
CONS: Expensive to buy and expensive to run.
The 911 Turbo's 3.8-litre flat-six develops 493bhp and 479lb-ft of torque. This means 0-62mph takes 3.7 seconds and flat out you'll be doing 194mph.
The PDK gearbox makes changing gear effortless and extremely quick and the Turbo's powerful brakes and stability control system help in maintaining fine balance while driving at very high speed.
The 911 Turbo looks great and you'll get begrudging respect from car-fans who will be able to tell that this is no ordinary 911. The interior is also a paragon of good taste and fastidious Teutonic build quality.
Every Porsche 911 has climate control, alloy wheels, electric windows and mirrors, and immaculately stitched leather trim. There are myriad options, including a chronograph pack which includes a dash-top stopwatch.
Although the cabriolet roof-top compromises security, the standard alarm system, immobiliser and deadlocks compensate for this drawback. Every 911 also comes with front, side airbags and head airbags. Porsche's stability management system is fitted as standard, and anti-rollover bars pop up behind the rear seats in the event of a rollover.
The car is ideally suitable for two people as there is good space in the front, but even children can be cramped on the rear bench. The compact rear accommodation can be folded to make a luggage bay and you get 150-litre of storage space in the boot,
No matter how hard you drive a 911 and use it as an everyday car, it should not cause you any trouble. It is built from the best materials to the highest standards. It is exactly the same story with the mechanicals and engine, which should last for years.
At £120,677, the 911 Turbo PDK Cabriolet 2dr is not cheap. However, the performance is in Ferrari territory and the Turbo is just as fast as cars which cost twice as much, making it relatively good value for money.
It won't be cheap to run either. Porsche claim it will return 24.6mpg but this is a bit optimistic. CO2 emissions of 270g/km also means that the 911 Turbo falls under the highest road tax band, M.
