Porsche 911 Club Coupé

Hey guys,

I really like the 911 Club Coupé but I don't have to many information about it. Do you have some more pictures of the car?







Let's start a "Club Coupé picture thread"...

And is there anything like a brochure with the options available on the car? Never knew that there was an other interior available than the black one.

Greetings from Germany!
Tobi

Targa Tim has or had one, was offered to club members when the 997 came out, def. not worth starting it's own thread over though, just add the images if you wish to the existing 997 picture thread, cheers and welcome to the Team.

Here is the original info thanks to ultimate car page:

The 911 Club Coupe's most visual exterior feature is its distinguishing Azurro California color. This paint color is a modern interpretation of azure blue, a color made popular on Porsche 356 sportscars when the PCA was founded 50 years ago. The rear portion of the standard center console is also painted in Azurro California. As an option, the backs of the sport seats can be painted in this striking metallic blue color, as well. In addition to sport seats, the 911 Club Coupe's standard interior features include black instrument dials and a sport steering wheel and gear shifter. Stainless steel doorsills incorporate the 911 Club Coupe logo, and each car bears a badge on the driver's side door trim indicating its individual number in the series of 50 cars.

The Club Coupe is the first in the current generation of Porsche 911 sports cars to be equipped with the X51 Powerkit. This feature increases output of the 3.8-liter, flat-six cylinder Carrera S engine from 355 to 381 horsepower and peak torque from 295 to 306 ft. lbs., making it the most powerful non-Turbocharged engine yet offered in a Porsche 911 production car for North America. Distinguished by its carbon fiber air cleaner housing, the X51 Powerkit boosts performance through a series of engine enhancements including a larger throttle body, optimized intake airflow, cylinder heads and exhaust manifold modifications, changes in the control unit, and the inclusion of a sport exhaust system. The result produces a 0 to 60 mph time of a quick 4.4 seconds and a top track speed of an impressive 186 mph. Like the Carrera S, the 911 Club Coupe is equipped with
19-inchwheels and tires, Porsche Stability Management (PSM), and Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) for optimal handling. The Sport Chrono Package Plus system is also standard equipment, while Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB) is available as an option.

Manufacturers' suggested retail pricing for the 911 Club Coupe begins at $99,911 US and $145,911 CDN. It is anticipated that PCA members will purchase all 48 cars offered for sale. Due to their exclusivity, the purchasing process for these cars will be initiated through a special website that is dedicated to the model. This website contains full terms and conditions of the sales offer. There is no charge to register for the sales offer. The offer to eligible U.S. and Canadian PCA members for the 48 Club
Coupes that are available for purchase will be open until August 15, 2005. On or about this date, all of the remaining 48 Club Coupes not purchased by eligible PCA members may be made available to the general public. As part of the PCA's Golden Anniversary recognition, one of the 50 911 Club Coupes will be randomly given away to a lucky PCA member. Sweepstakes rules and eligibility are found on the same website referenced above. No purchase necessary to enter the Sweepstakes. The Sweepstakes is open to eligible U.S. and Canadian PCA members until Sept. 12, 2005.

The Porsche Club of America is one of the largest independent, single-marque automobile clubs in the world with approximately 84,000 individual members and 139 chapters in the United States and Canada. Bill Sholar founded the club 50 years ago when he and and a small group of 11 enthusiasts held their first business meeting on Sept. 13, 1955, at Blackie's Grille in Alexandria, Va.

Gorgeous car. At a Grand Am race a couple years back, I saw the #50 of 50 Club Coupe. The "one of 50" given away stated in the article was this particular one. The owner said he won it in a PCA raffle. The color is awesome in person.

It's featured briefly in the very beginning of this video. I'm gonna make a similar one this year. But I learned from my mistakes and will tone down the effects, and leave the music out of the racing.
