The 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show is around the corner. German Auto Manufacturer, Porsche is planning to unveil the Porsche 911 Sport Classic at the show. Only 250 of these sports cars will be built. The Porsche 911 Sport Classic will go on sale in January 2010 in Europe. Porsche is bringing back their old tradition of building an exclusive series in limited numbers. This car has been developed over the last 3 years. The Porsche 911 Sport Classic’s design team has paid fine attention to detail. The car was developed by Porsche Exclusive, a specialist department at the German Auto Maker. This division deals with custom designs and has higher standards than Porsche’s normal production division. The Porsche 911 Sport Classic fashions a newly developed dome roof, features a wider rear body and a wider track on the rear axle. The car is fitted with a 3.8 litre direct fuel injection engine.
The Porsche 911 Sport Classic has an intake manifold with 6 vacuum-controlled switching flaps. The car is capable of putting out 304 kW / 408 hp, is fitted with a 6 spd manual transmission, ceramic composite brakes and 19″ alloy wheels. The Porsche 911 Sport Classic also has aerodynamic aids. The car features a Sport Design front air dam with air inlets for the brakes, radiator and oil cooler. The car is also fitted with a rear spoiler that resembles the legendary 1973 Porsche Carrera RS 2.7. The car features a dashboard with a wide range of inserts and custom trim components. The Porsche 911 Sport Classic’s is fitted with an Espresso Nature natural leather interior.
This car will probably not be released in South Africa. For the dreamers out there, a scale model of the Porsche 911 Sport Classic will be made available to buy. Other Porsche enthusiasts will probably find second hand Porsche 911 cars easier in the classifieds publications around the world. This isn’t a car that anyone can afford. The price tag is said to be $266,000 (Over R1.4 million).
