Porsche Reveals 911 Turbo Cabriolet

With a price tag north of $200K CDN this is the equivalent of an A-list runway model - virtually unattainable eye candy. But who cares? This is quite simply one of the quickest topless cars on the planet.

As with the 911 Turbo Coupé, the Cabriolet will also be powered by a 3.6 liter six-cylinder ‘boxer’ engine with biturbo turbocharging and Variable Turbine Geometry (VTG). The powerplant already generates 480 hp (353 kW) and 620 Nm of torque at 1950 rpm. With the new, optional “Sport Chrono Turbo Package”, which includes an overboost function, up to 680 Nm is even intermittently possible. The manual transmission version can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just four seconds. With Tiptronic S the time can be cut to 3.8 seconds. Both versions can reach speeds of up to 310 km/h. Fuel consumption for the 911 Turbo Cabriolet is 12.9 liters per 100 kilometers – an exemplary value in the competitive environment.

Head on over to the jump for more car specs. Now, here's a little something to balance all that Porsche love. Seriously, we all know the car looks good, but not everyone likes them.

It's arguably one of the most painful videos I've ever seen.
