Porsche has unveiled the 2014 911 Turbo S and Cabriolet ahead of their official debut at the 2013 LA Auto Show. These cars follow their fixed roof sibling which were unveiled in May and commemorate the 50th anniversary of the iconic German sportscar.
Both cars use the same underpinnings and engine line up as their Coupe sibling but in the case of the convertible, it gets a new fabric roof with a magnesium frame. This roof can be opened in 13 seconds at speeds of up to 48kmph. Thanks to the magnesium frame, the roof is able to maintain the coupe like shape.
The Turbo cabriolet and the Turbo S cabriolet both make use of the famed Porsche 3.8-litre turbo charged six-cylinder engine that now produces 521PS in the standard car and 561PS in the Turbo S. This combination has given the car a 0-100kmph time of 3.1 seconds and a top speed of 312kmph.
While the Turbo has been priced at 160, 700 USD (Rs One Crore) the more powerful Turbo S costs 193, 900 (Rs 1.21 Crore) and this does not include a 950 USD (Rs 59, 000) destination charge. Deliveries are expected to take place early next year.
The Porsche India website has both cars already listed but no price as yet. We will update you as soon as the price is out though much like the others cars in the Porsche range, you would need a significantly deep pockets to be able to buy one.
