The 2011 Porsche 911 Carrera Turbo S comes equipped with a 530 hp, 516 lb-ft of torque twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter flat six. The all new Turbo S gets several key performance options standard from the base Turbos list of extras, including carbon-ceramic brakes, a torque-vectoring function for the stability control, Porsches excellent seven-speed PDK dual-clutch gearbox, and the Sport Chrono Turbo package.

Further standard equipment includes a full leather interior, cornering headlamps, adaptive front seats, 19-inch, center-locking wheels, and a sport steering wheel with gearshift paddles for the PDK gearbox. The Sport Plus button alters shift response and throttle calibrations, and also allows for a launch-control function, which according to Car and Driver, a PDK-equipped base 911 Turbo can execute the 0-to-60-mph sprint in an astounding 2.9 seconds. They estimate the Turbo S to be about a tenth or two faster than that. Wow.
