What is the 2023 Porsche 911 Sport Classic?
In 2022, Porsche released a limited-edition model with distinctive design cues inspired by iconic 911 models from history. This car is known as the 911 Sport Classic.
What is the 2023 Porsche 911 Sport Classic?
The 2023 Porsche 911 Sport Classic revives the style of the 1960s and early 1970s. Like its immediate predecessor, the 997-based 911 Sport Classic presented in 2009, the appearance of this model is inspired by the original 1964 Porsche 911 and the 1972 911 Carrera RS 2.7. The wide body, usually reserved for the 911 Turbo models, a fixed rear spoiler in the style of the legendary “ducktail” Carrera RS 2.7, and the double-bubble roof underscore the distinctiveness of the 911 Sport Classic.
The designers of the Sport Classic were inspired by the Fashion Grey paintwork of the early Porsche 356 when choosing the exclusive paint finish for the new limited-edition model. Twin stripes painted on the bonnet, roof and rear spoiler in light Sports Grey emphasise the sporting design of the car. As an alternative to the exclusive Sport Grey Metallic finish, the 911 Sport Classic was also available in solid Black, Agate Grey Metallic, Gentian Blue Metallic or Paint to Sample.
550 Horsepower
The powertrain is also quite unique. The 911 Sport Classic features twin-turbocharged flat-six engine, combined with manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive. The 3.7-litre, twin-turbocharged six-cylinder boxer engine delivers 405 kW (550 PS). The gearbox has an auto-blip function that compensates for engine-speed differences between the gears with a brief burst of revs when shifting down. The standard sports exhaust system is specially tailored to the model for an even more emotive sound experience.
The suspension is based on that of the 911 Turbo and 911 GTS models. Thanks to the standard Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), its shock absorbers respond to dynamic changes at lightning speed. PASM is combined as standard with the sports suspension, which features a 10 millimetre lower ride height.
Only 1,250 examples of the Porsche 911 Sport Classic were built by the Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur.
