Porsche 911 Turbo 50 Years

Porsche 911 Turbo 50 Years is a limited edition anniversary model that celebrates the launch of the original Porsche 911 Turbo in 1974.

Porsche 911 Turbo 50 Years

The interior and exterior evoke historic 911 Turbo models, complemented by timelessly elegant and contemporary styling elements. The standard side vinyl graphics are a nod to the historic livery of the Porsche 911 RSR Turbo presented at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1973. It features the current Porsche Turbo-exclusive colour Turbonite, which here makes its first appearance on a 911. Turbonite is also used on inlays in the rear engine cover, the fuel tank cap and in the Porsche crest. It is also being used as a contrasting colour in the Turbo 50 model logo.

Another historical reference is the use of Anthracite Grey on the rear wing blade, rear apron, mirror base and air intake trims. A badge on the rear engine cover grille features a turbocharger icon and the years 1974–2024. When the door is open, the LED door projector projects the image of a turbocharger onto the ground next to the car.

The 911 Turbo 50 Years comes with the 911 Turbo S Exclusive Design wheels in Turbonite as standard. A sports exhaust system with black tailpipes is also standard feature as is the PCCB brake system with black brake callipers.

Interior with a Historic Spirit

As an exclusive tribute to the early Porsche 911 Turbo models, the iconic McKenzie tartan adorns the centre panels of the seat covers and the interior door panels. Additional contrasts in Turbonite further differentiate the car from the regular 911 Turbo S series-production model. These include the seat belts, controls, decorative stitching, trim strips with decorative inlays in black leather and the Porsche crest on the GT sports steering wheel.

An illuminated Turbo 50 logo features on the door kick plates, which are finished in black brushed aluminium. The logo is embroidered into the headrests of the Adaptive Sports Seats Plus. There is also a Turbo 50 logo on the back of the left rear seat. Above the glove compartment is an anniversary plaque in aluminium, which bears both the Turbo 50 logo and the individual limited-edition number of the sports car. The A-pillar, sun visors and roof lining are upholstered in perforated Race-Tex. An analogue Porsche Design Subsecond clock with a special Turbo 50 design adorns the dashboard.

Optional Heritage Design Package

The historically inspired, optionally available 50 Years of Turbo Heritage Design Package complements the anniversary model with numerous additional exclusive design and equipment features. The base colour of the Heritage Design Package is provided by the Aventurine Green Metallic paintwork. Alternatively, both the standard 911 colours and Paint to Sample programme colours are also available. One component of the Heritage Design Package is a high-quality decorative graphic in White (satin finish) consisting of three elements: the lollipop with individually selectable car numbers between 0 and 99, the 50 years of Turbo logo and a Porsche logo. Those who prefer a minimalistic look can dispense with some or all of the graphic elements.

The historic Porsche crest from 1964 is used on the front bonnet as well as on the centre caps of the Sport Classic wheels, painted in Brilliant Silver and White (satin finish). The Turbo 50 and Porsche logos on the rear are in Gold. In the interior, additional leather features and additional tartan design elements round off the anniversary model. The dashboard trim, glove box and seat backrest inlays are covered with the classic pattern. The historic Porsche crest is mounted on the steering wheel, while the centre console storage compartment bears the Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur logo embossed in the leather. The dials in the instrument cluster and the Sport Chrono clock in the Heritage Design Package are finished in green.

Based on the 911 Turbo S

The special edition is technically based on the Porsche 911 Turbo Turbo S. Powered by a 3.7-litre boxer engine with variable turbine geometry twin turbocharging, it delivers 478 kW (650 PS) and 800 Newton metres of torque. With a kerb weight of 1640 kilograms, the result is a power-to-weight ratio of 2.52 kg/hp.

Power is transmitted to the wheels by the 8-speed dual-clutch transmission (PDK) and the active all-wheel-drive Porsche Traction Management (PTM) with Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus), including the electronically controlled rear differential lock with fully variable torque distribution. The Porsche 911 Turbo 50 can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.7 seconds hit 200 km/h in a mere 8.9 seconds.

Pricing

Only 1974 cars will be produced and they are available for order. In the USA, the Porsche 911 Turbo 50 Years has an MSRP of $261,100 excluding $1,995 for delivery, processing and handling.
