Porsche revealed the first official images and information on the new 2007 911 Turbo. The sixth generation of the range-topping 911 model features a revolutionary 480-bhp, twin-turbocharged, 3.6-liter boxer engine with the world’s first gasoline-engine application of variable turbine geometry (VTG), a redesigned all-wheel-drive system, and evolutionary styling.

The new 911 Turbo’s engine produces 480 hp at 6,000 rpm, 60 bhp more than its predecessor, raising specific output of the 3.6-liter boxer-Six to an all-time high of 133 bhp per liter. More notable is the engine’s torque curve, which has been bolstered and broadened by the variable turbine geometry system. Peak torque rises to 457 lb-ft (previously 415 lb-ft), but that peak now spans an extended rpm range from 1,950 to 5,000 rpm, compared to 2,700--4,600 rpm in the previous 911 Turbo. Additionally, a function in the optional Sport Chrono Package allows a 10-second, mid-rpm-range ‘overboost’, temporarily increasing turbo boost under full throttle by 2.9 psi, and swelling peak torque to 502 lb-ft.

it was on porsche's website before you, but the car is a good improvement over the old 996 turbo, but it isn't gpong to beat the ZO6 corvette in straight line but will definitely take the corners faster

I think porsche will bust out ferrari's f430 , zo6 and the viper because of its better aerodynamics among them all

Make that three times spi-ti-tout, sorry guys I'll do better research next time. I may be a fool, but I didn't see this Millen inspired Celica in the hide-out index.

Somebody help me.
Why on earth would Porsche release these pictures? I mean they only just released the 2006 model. Maybe it would be worth it if it was a significant improvement, but its not, its another /boring/ upgrade.
not boring...but it isnt a whole model change kinda thing.

Because of the nature of American consumerism, new = must have.

So, for some strange reason in the US, a car built and sold in 2006 is the "2007" model.

Apparently it wouldn't sell if they correctly named it the "2006" model.:rolleyes:
