If we were actually in the market to buy a Porsche 911, the choices are starting to rack up such that we wouldn’t really know what to get (although my personal selection would probably be the Porsche 911 Sport Classic - I just loved that special edition). Anyway, with options to play with, Porsche has just produced this
Carrera 4 GTS, giving the rear-engined model all-wheel drive.

It’s just the latest in the Porsche 911 (997) line-up and takes the recent Carrera GTS with its 3.8-litre engine and gives it all-wheel drive. That’s some serious traction on the model with 408 hp and 420 Nm of torque, and we think it could probably hit the mark with some customers. The model expands the GTS range to two versions - the four-wheel drive option and the previous rear-wheel drive model.

The new model will be available in both coupé and cabriolet versions and despite having more power, apparently it can count on the same fuel consumption as the 911 Carrera 4S. With a manual transmission, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS reaches 100 km/hr in 4.6 seconds, but a PDK dual-clutch gearbox is also available.

A few small touches set this model apart, including a rear reflector strip, redesigned front bumpers and Sport-Design spoiler, side skirts and 19-inch blacked-out wheels. The Carrera 4 GTS will be available from July this year with pricing in Germany at about €111,956 for the coupé, and starting at about 122,000 euros for the cabriolet.
