Porsche launches new 911 mini site

Until now, consumers have been able to "build" a car of their choice on almost every auto maker’s Web site; however, to experience the true beauty of the new 2009 Porsche 911, Porsche Cars North America (PCNA) is taking its site’s visitors to the next level of Internet interactivity by enabling them to draw their own roads and then "drive" on this virtual asphalt. The company’s new "micro-sites" use the most up-to-date digital technology to offer a sense of what driving a 2009 Porsche 911 is all about.

The new 911 will go on sale on September 20 and features significant advancements, including engines with direct fuel injection (DFI) and an optional seven-speed transmission called Porsche-Doppelkupplung (PDK), which is essentially two transmissions in one: an automatic that is actually a true manual that uses two automatically engaged clutches.

Porsche is not only working on facelifts for the Coupe, Cabrio, Targa and Turbo models; there will also be a facelift version of the high-performance versions too. Latest spy shots caught the GT3 RS testing in the French mountains.

The next GT3 RS will keep the ’GT3 RS’ side sticker and the special colored wheels, the decorative stripe, contrast-painted outside mirrors, rear wing endplates, and roll cage. In the back there will be a 415-hp engine that will sprint the car from 0 to 60 mph in just 4 seconds and will hit a top speed of 193 mph.

As the title says, the new Sportec SP750 is based on the 911 GT2 (997) and is powered by an improved version of the 3.6-liter bi-turbo engine capable to develop 750 hp. In order to obtain the 220 hp improvement the tuner had to modify the turbochargers and titanium con rods, reprogram the ECU and the charge-air intercoolers. With these, the car can hit 60 mph in just 3.2 seconds, that’s a half-second improvement. Top speed is raised to a claimed over 218 mph.

Sportec also offers a new set of 20 inch alloy wheels wrapped in 245/30 ZR20 tires up front and 325/25 ZR20 at the rear. At the interior the customers can buy new aluminium pedals, floor mats and alcantara leather accessories.

2009 Porsche 911 Targa

As part of the update to the 911 line, Porsche introduced the new 911 Targa last weekend. The Targa first appeared in 1967 as a removable roof panel designed in response to concerns that the tightening U.S. safety restrictions would ban convertibles. But today, with a full convertible version of the 911 available, the Targa has evolved into a large sliding sunroof. As with the previous generation Targa, the 2009 model will feature a large glass roof that can electronically slide behind the rear-window.

This fall it will be available as 911 Targa 4 and the 911 Targa 4S. As with the other updated 911s, the Targa models will receive the updated range of engines. The “basic“ version is now powered by a 3.6-liter flat-six developing maximum output of 345 bhp and giving the car a top speed of 176 mph. The power unit featured in the 911 Targa 4S displaces 3.8 liters, developing maximum output of 385 bhp and accelerating this outstanding sports car to a top speed of 184 mph.

After unveiling the facelifted version of the 911 line-up, Porsche has started to work at the next generation Porsche 911, and here’s the first photos taken at a mule around the Nurburgring.

Even if the mule is wearing a 997 body work there are a few details showing we are actually looking at the next 998: the addition of blistered wheel arches hinting at a widened track and a makeshift wing providing additional downforce. Also the quad exhaust tips pulled from the Carrera S aren’t fitted as flush as the 997 model.
