997 Turbo S Ice Blue Metallic Picture Blast!

Porsche 911 Turbo S: Even More Dynamic, Top Equipment all Standard
Stuttgart. The engineers at Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG, Stuttgart, have developed a new top-of-the-range sports car for the customer who will only settle for the very best in terms of power, performance and driving dynamics: the 911 Turbo S. The heart of this most exclusive high-performance athlete is of course a six-cylinder boxer boosted by two exhaust gas turbochargers with variable turbine geometry, with an increase in power over the 911 Turbo by 30 to 530 bhp (390 kW). Maximum torque is a most impressive 700 Newton-metres (516 lb-ft). At the same time this new top model comes as standard with all high-tech components available only as options on the “regular” 911 Turbo.

Despite its significant increase in power and dynamic performance, the new 911 Turbo S, at 11.4 litres/100 kilometres (equal to 24.8 mpg imp), does not consume any more fuel than the Porsche 911 Turbo, making it by far the most efficient sports car in its performance class.

The 911 Turbo S comes exclusively with seven-speed Porsche-Doppelkupplungsgetriebe (PDK) (Porsche’s Double-Clutch Gearbox) conveying drive power to Porsche Traction Management (PTM) all-wheel drive. Driving safety optimised to an even higher standard is ensured by Dynamic Engine Mounts and Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV) including a mechanical differential lock on the rear axle. In conjunction with Launch Control on the Sport Chrono Package Turbo likewise featured as standard, 911 Turbo S accelerates from a standstill to 100 km/h in 3.3 seconds and reaches 200 km/h in 10.8 seconds

Top speed is 315 km/h or 195 mph. Extra-light and fading-resistant Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB) provide the same outstanding performance in terms of stopping power and controlled application of the brakes. The supreme level of standard equipment including Dynamic Bending Lights, 19-inch wheels in RS Spyder design with central locking, a three-spoke sports steering wheel with gearshift paddles, adaptive sports seats, cruise control, a CD/DVD changer and exclusive twin-tone leather upholstery in Black/Crema or Black/Titanium Blue additionally underlines the outstanding class and calibre of this first Turbo S in five years.

The new Porsche 911 Turbo S will be at the dealership as both a Coupé and Cabriolet as of May 2010. The German market price of the Turbo S Coupé is Euro 173,241 including 19 per cent value-added tax and local equipment in the market (the Euro base price is Euro 145,400). The Cabriolet retails in the German market at Euro 184.546, again including 19 per cent VAT and local equipment/specifications (base price Euro 154,900).

That's a killer spread especially for those of us with too much car ADD to wait for the flubbed ice blue metallic paint availability for launch cars.

Wonderful color.

Oh man, that color is incredible! I'd love a 997TTS in Ice Blue over Natural Brown or Cocoa leather.

Copied from a old post


Here is my friends long awaited 2008 997 Turbo, he had ordered it on October and it arrived 3 months ago. The colour is very feminine to be honest but looks very elegant and traditional 90's porsche theme. I really liked it with the sea blue interior matching with yellow stitching and carbon fiber trim.

The car is loaded with many porsche exclusive features such as yellow gauges, yellow seat belts, pcm in aluminum, leather seatbacks, illuminated CF door sills, painted oem grills.

Modifications:
V-Kool tint
9FF Chin spoiler
Antera wheels

I recommended him to switch to HRE 040 wheels in brushed and to get the Techart sideskirts,techart rear valance, 9FF rear spoiler and techart tips. I dislike the antera wheels, as I feel its too bulky looking for the cars setup. The owner might be absurd in thinking its " 993 Like" as he states.

I hope we can steer the car into a better look, something very original and understated.





Unfortunately he sold it but the colour looks better than Ice Blue.

Well the 6 months plus delay for my IBM TTS will be worth the wait.
