Q: How do you make your car sound like a Porsche 911 turbo?
How do you make your car sound like a Porsche 911 turbo?

A: You buy one.

Q: What do you know about the Porsche 911 Turbo?
Tell me everything there is to know about the Porsche 911 Turbo?

A: The best 6 cylinder car in the world.
Porsche is leader in turbocharging technology and boxer engine technology.
The 911 Turbo is All Wheel Drive.
480HP twin turbo Flat-6 engine.
4 seats.
Reliable, as fast as Ferrari and Lamborghini’s, but at a cheaper price.
Aerodynamic and comfortable. More trunk space than Ferrari or Lamdborghini’s.

Brakes last forever and are made out of carbon fiber.

0-60mph in 3.6 seconds.
Top Speed is 193mph.

It is like a vacuum cleaner. The air that goes in the car is more dirty than the air coming out of the car through the exhaust. Very environmentally friendly.

Gets up to 25mpg highway. That is the best gas mileage for an engine with more than 400HP.

Q: What is the Targa version of porsche from 911 turbo, carrera, and convertible?
i know that porsche 911’s got normal one, turbo S, and carrera and convertible.
but i’ve seen one that says Targa 4, what’s the different between them? Does Targa 4 has turbo too?
is there a targa 1, 2, 3,4? what’s the difference between them?

A: Targa means removable roof panel. The 4 means all wheel drive.

Q: What’s the difference between the Porsche 911 GT2 and the Porsche 911 Turbo?
I’m a virgin when it comes to car lingo so take it easy on me but from different sites and pictures the only thing I can tell is that the Turbo is a convertible?

Also, can you get the same model without the spoiler or is that part of the package?

A: Ok so im the biggest car nut in the world haha so here we go…

The 911 Turbo costs 132,000

The GT2 Costs 194,000

The 911 Turbos top speed is 194

The GT2’s top speed is 204

They both look amazing but the GT2 definatly makes more of a statement, and unfortunatly for you, the spoiler for both of those is part of the package.

The Turbo comes in both a Cabriolet (convertable) version, or a hard top version. both look amazing, but the Cabriolet version of the Turbo is $11,000 more.

Another car i would take a look at is the 911 GT3 RS. It is an amazing car, and as close as to a racecar as you can get in a street legal car.

By the way, i have seen both the Turbo and the GT2 in real life, and the spoiler makes all the difference. Thats the most basic way you can tell the car is Turbo or GT2.

Also, try going to your local Porsche dealership and taking some test drives and seeing what feels, looks, and sounds better to you. The Porsche Car salesmen really know there stuff, and im actually going to the San Diego Porsche dealership today to look at some cars, because its so much different then on the computer.

Hope I helped!

Q: Where can I copy a key for a 2007 Porsche 911 Turbo?
I want to copy a key so that i could give a copy to someone. Is this something they do at the dealer or do I have to contact Porsche directly? If so what is the #?
Thanks that was very insightful.

A: Take a copy of you vehicle registration and you key to the Porsche Dealer along with you picture ID. The parts counter will be able to help you

Q: Which is best Audi R8 or Porsche 911 Turbo?
Who makes the more technologically sophisticated high performace sports car? Audi or Porsche?

Also why is it that one is more advanced than the other? How do these two compare?

A: If you were to compare these cars from their performance numbers only……the Porsche 911 Turbo is better (in acceleration, overall power 480 hp vs the R8’s 420) in most aspects except for handling. The Porsche 911 is legendary in the sports car world and has an illustrious history unlike the R8. The Porsche 911 Turbo has been in criticized by car magazines and other publications. They seem to prefer the 911 GT3/GT3 RS as it offers a more pure 911 experience.
The R8 is loaded with technology such as Audi’s Space Frame, Quattro all-wheel drive, Audi’s FSI, magnetic ride control, and LED headlights. The Porsche 911 Turbo is slightly more expensive than the R8. Many people criticize the 911’s familiar look but in a way i think the 911 styling is timeless. The R8 looks much better in my opinion however and it would be rarer on the road. If I had the money these cars cost I would seriously look at the Porsche 911 GT3 but I think I would choose the R8 as it is a better road car.

Q: How much would a 2009 porsche 911 turbo cost in about 10 years?
They’re beautiful cars but I wouldn’t be able to afford a new one!

A: To get a genuinely accurate answer, you will need to ask this again in about 10 years. And what the answer will be then will depend on the continued development of Porsche models compared to earlier examples and the general condition of the economy.

But that said, it’s still possible to make an educated guess based on past values. The biggest variable will be if the current 997 Turbo will follow more closely the older examples like the 930, 965, and 993, or the sharper devaluation curve of the recent 996. There are reasons to speculate that it could follow either one, but in either case it’s possible to get at least a general range.

If it were to follow the high end of the range, and come in close to the 993 Twin Turbo, you’d find used values around $80-90k. If it proves to be more similar to the 996 models, you’ll find pricing in the $50-60k range. The styling on the 997 seems likely to age better than the 996, but it’s production numbers and other factors seem much more in line with the 996. Given all factors and likely inflation, $70-75k seems like a good median number.

Q: where can i find a Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet keyring or model to turn into a keyring?
if its a model then it needs to be matchbox car size.

thanks for your help. and it would be best if i can buy it in Australia.

A: Match Box makes die-cast metal models of the 911 Turbo Cabriolet. I don’t know of a keyring ready made like you’ve described.

Q: How fast can a Porsche 911 Turbo go at maximum speed?
A question raised due to the Twilight series character Alice Cullen and her beloved yellow car.

A: The $126,200 Porsche 911 Turbo has a track record of 193 mph.

It has an engine power of
480 hp at 6,000 rpm
and it goes
0-60 in 3.7 seconds.

The rear-engined car is astonishing for well in fact, it lets you use all its power unlike other muscle cars and exclusive cars whether it is on the highway or off-road..

Q: I need all the information I can get on the 2008 porsche 911 turbo?
I need all the general information I can get, please.

A: While c420’s answer is good, be sure to check out

http://www.porsche.com

Nobody knows specifications for a car better than the people that made it. I have found factual errors on Wickipedia (big surprise) and in Road & Track articles. Read them all.

Added:
Neil has a good idea. Here are my favorite numbers on the car. 0 mph to 100 mph to 0 mph in 12 seconds (I was reading about a “new” U.S. muscle cars boasting its 0 to 100 to 0 time of 18 seconds the other day … pffft).

Distance to stop from 62 mph (100 kph): 98 feet … yes, just 98 feet. Most cars do well to stop from 60 in 120 feet, or more.

Q: How much would tax cost each year for a porsche 911 turbo cabriolet?

A: if you have to worry about the mere tax on a porche…

it’s probably out of your budget…don’t get it

Q: How much does a Porsche 911 Turbo cost?
Can you please tell me more about it? How fast can it go? How much would one cost? Are they convertibles?
Basically, please just tell me everything about them.
Thanks

A: New Ones cost $126,000.

The Convertible versions cost around $134,000.

0-60mph in 3.8 seconds. Top Speed is 193mph. Fastest 6 cylinder car in top speed.

They are 2 door, rear engine, All Wheel Drive cars.
They have 2 back seats, but they are very small. Too small for people to fit in.
The trunk is in the front.
The 911 Turbo uses a 6 cylinder engine. A H6 or Boxer engine.
It makes 480HP.
The 911 Turbo comes with a 6 speed manual transmission or a 6 speed tiptronic automatic transmission.(Semi automatic).
They only use premium gas and they are expensive to fix and maintain, but they are reliable cars.
Porsche engines are made to last long in high speeds. They can drive at 190mph for hours without the engine overheating. Their engines also have lots of potential. Tuners get over 1000HP out of that 6 cylinder engine. The 911 Turbo engine is the strogest and best 6 cylinder engine.
Pretty good on gas too for 480HP. 18mpg city and 25mpg highway.

Q: Can a Suburu WRX STI beat a porsche 911 turbo both stock?
Can a Suburu WRX STI beat a porsche 911 turbo both stock

A: i know the sti will get the jump against the older porsche. i raced one about a month ago and had him up till about 90 mph then he started to pull away. not more than a few feet though. it was a twin turbo.

Q: How fast can new porsche 911 turbo do the 1/4 mile?
this is very helpful. my friend thinks he can beat me while im in my chevelle with a 502 big block
this is very helpful. my friend thinks he can beat me while im in my chevelle with a 502 big block
a 502 has more than 375hp
the top speed does not always matter on the 1/4 mile

A: I checked out conceptcarz.com.I have only found the 0-60mph time and the top speed. The 0-60 time is 3.7seconds and the top speed is 193mph

Q: How would the ‘Porsche 911 Turbo’ be on fuel/insurance?
MSRP $ 128,700.00
I’m looking to get it
i can afford it…

A: Fuel:
One of the most fuel efficient supercars and more fuel efficient than many slower, less powerful sports cars.

It gets 18mpg city and 25mpg highway with a 480HP Twin Turbo Flat-6 Engine.
It uses Premium fuel only since it has a powerful turbocharged engine.

If you drive it like the average driver who drives 12,000 miles per year, gas would cost $1320/year if you average 20mpg and if premium gas costs $2.20 per gallon.

$1320 per year for gas is very good, especially on a high performance sports car.

Insurance woud cost much more. Insurance cost depends on where you live, your driving experience, and your age.

It will cost more than $500 per month most probably.
