About the Porsche 911 991

The 991.1 generation Carrera S represents a significant milestone in 911 history as the final model to feature a naturally aspirated engine before the range transitioned to turbocharging. It introduced a longer wheelbase and a wider front track, significantly improving stability and high-speed composure compared to the 997. The 3.8-litre flat-six is celebrated for its linear power delivery and mechanical soundtrack, especially when paired with the world's first seven-speed manual transmission. While more refined and luxurious than its predecessors, it remains a sharp, driver-focused sports car that has become a modern classic for purists.
