The Porsche 911 has something for a wide variety of performance car fans. There’s the Carrera for those who might be getting their first 911. The Carrera 4 models come with the additional traction of all-wheel drive. Cabriolets let in the sunshine while the S variants let out more power and sound. If a blend of street comfort, track capabilities, and a naturally aspirated engine are what you’re looking for, Porsche offers the GT3; the more hardcore GT3 RS is ready to race. For more than 50 years, Porsche has made the 911 Turbo, a turbocharged, all-wheel-drive model that’s more potent than the Carrera S, but not quite as extreme as the GT3 variants. Our AutoHunter Spotlight car, offered by a private seller in South Carolina, is a 2016 Porsche 911 Turbo S, which means it takes the Turbo’s already ample performance up a notch.
The Turbo and Turbo S have similar names, but there are ways of identifying the even-higher-performance S model—just look at the Carrara White Metallic example here. Up front, it has LED headlights and the Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS+), which steers the headlights into curves and adjusts the cone of light projected by the headlights based on the car ahead and oncoming vehicles. On the sides, the Turbo S has SportDesign mirrors with V-shaped bases. See those center locks on the black 20-inch wheels? Those are straight out of motorsports.
The Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes behind the myriad of black spokes are designed to reign in the Turbo S’s extra power. How much is that? While the Turbo and Turbo both have PDK seven-speed dual-clutch automatics and twin-turbo 3.8-liter flat-sixes, the S is equipped with larger turbos, which increase output from 540 horsepower and 486 lb-ft of torque (523 with overboost) to 580 horsepower and 516 lb-ft (553 with overboost). As a result, the Turbo S gets to 60 mph a tenth of a second faster (2.8 seconds) and hits a higher top speed (205 mph).
Inside, 2016 Turbo S models came standard with the additional comfort and support provided by the Sport Seats Plus, which included carbon fiber trim in certain areas. The car you see here features classic Black leather upholstery plus even more leather in some interesting areas like around the instrument cluster (which shows only 11,804 miles), and on the steering column and rear center tunnel.
