Porsche 911 Exterior
The Porsche 911 is available in many different models, including the Carrera, the GT3, the Targa, and the turbo models. Each model comes in many different trims. These many options enable you to customize your 911 as you wish it to be.
The 911 models share the same Porsche’s traditional LED lights designs and the same front grille and vents design with a front splitter. They also share the same traditional aerodynamic shape.
The 911 Carrera models have the less aggressive front as they tend to be the less powerful among other 911 models and more elegant. They come in Cabriolet versions as well. Then, there are the 911 Turbo models that are more powerful versions, with a wider body and more aggressive front. They also come with side vents. If you want a cheaper Porsche that looks like a GT3 Touring version, you can choose the Carrera T that is more track focused with its design and features. All 911 models come with an adaptive aero wing that enhances handling and down force.
The 911 Targa is the spyder version of the 911, and it almost has the same design as the Carrera in a spyder version.
The 911 Turbo models are available in Cariolet versions as well. The Dakar model, another 911 model, is a 911 off-road oriented version. It comes with many exterior features for off-roading; upgraded bumpers, off-road tires, better cooling system, towing hooks…
The 911 GT3 models, the GT3 and the GT3 Touring, have the same specifications, but they differ with the rear wing; the Touring version comes with an adaptive wing, whereas the GT3 comes with a swan neck wing, which is manually adjustable and more track focused. This makes the Touring a better version for the road and long rides. The GT3 models are more track focused, and they come with many aerodynamic upgrades, a carbon fiber hood, and an optional carbon fiber roof for better down force, a carbon fiber wing, and more… The GT3 RS is the most aggressive with more carbon fiber, better performance, more and wider air vents, wider body, a bigger wing, a bigger diffuser, more dark accents, bigger wheels…
The 911 Sports Classic’s design is a combination between a 911 Turbo model and a classic Porsche 911. It has the rear wing of a classic Porsche 911 but the design of the new one, with an interior combined between modernity and classiness.
The sides of a Porsche 911 may have a body-colored, carbon fiber, or a dark mirror cap depending on the trim. The wheel size vary between 19, 20, or 21 inches depending on the model and its performance. You can choose the design as well as the color in some higher models. The new 911 models have a unique taillight that extends on the wide rear body.
Porsche 911 Interior
The Porsche 911 interior’s design varies depending on the trims. It might have an elegant interior full of leather; leather seats and leather steering wheel. Some 911 models come with bucket Alcantara leather seats that are available in carbon fiber as well. The high performance versions come with interior full of Alcantara for a sportier feel. Some models have 4 seats (like the Carrera models), whereas higher models come with only 2. The GT3 and the GT3RS models come with the rolling cage option.
