Description

The Porsche 911 Carrera S 50th Anniversary Edition is one of the most special modern versions of the Porsche 911, created by Porsche in 2013 to celebrate 50 years of the 911 since the original debuted at the Frankfurt Motor Show 1963. Here are the key details and why collectors love them. Production & Rarity Limited to 1,963 cars worldwide (a nod to 1963 when the 911 was launched). Based on the 991 Carrera S, but with unique mechanical and design features. One of the most desirable modern limited-edition 911s because it blends classic styling cues with modern performance. Engine & Performance Under the rear decklid sits the 3.8-litre flat-six from the Carrera S. Power: 400 PS (395 BHP) 0u201362 mph: ~4.3 seconds (manual) / ~4.1 seconds with PDK Top speed: approx. 186 mph Available with 7-speed manual or PDK gearbox It also came with performance hardware from the Porsche 911 Carrera 4, including: Wider rear body PASM adaptive suspension Sport Chrono package as standard Mechanical limited-slip differential Unique Exterior Features The anniversary cars have several retro-inspired touches referencing classic 911s: Special Fuchs-style alloy wheels (20-inch) Chrome window surrounds Unique rear grille with vertical slats u201c911 50u201d badging on the rear and engine grille Retro green-lettered instrument dials Colours offered were deliberately classic Porsche shades, including: Graphite Grey Geyser Grey Black Interior Details The interior is where the heritage theme really shines. Highlights include: Pepita (houndstooth) seat centre fabric inspired by early 911s Green instrument dials Aluminium trim with u201c911 50u201d plaque showing the production number Special badging on door sills and interior trim Why Itu2019s Special Collectors love this model because it combines: Limited production (1963 units) Classic design references Wide-body 911 stance Modern 991 reliability and usability Itu2019s widely considered one of the best modern u201cheritageu201d 911s Porsche has produced.
