Introducing the 2024 Porsche 911 S/T: A Fusion of Heritage and Innovation
Get ready for an automotive sensation – the 2024 Porsche 911 S/T, a thrilling blend of the GT3 Touring and GT3 RS, paying homage to the legendary 1969 911 S. Limited to just 1,963 models, this masterpiece is set to captivate car enthusiasts worldwide, with a starting price of $291,650 in the United States, following a grand debut at the Rennsport Reunion 7 in September 2023, and deliveries beginning in spring 2024.
The 911 S/T stands out with its feather-light weight, tipping the scales at 3,056 pounds, making it the lightest 911 of the 992-generation, 70 pounds lighter than the GT3 Touring. This engineering feat is achieved through the use of carbon-fiber-reinforced-plastic components for the hood, fenders, doors, roof, rear axle anti-roll bar, and back’s stiffening shear panel. The wheels, measuring 20 inches in the front and 21 inches at the rear, add a touch of luxury with their magnesium composition. Ceramic-composite brakes come standard, while the absence of the rear-axle steering system enhances the pure driving experience.
Under the hood roars a powerful 4.0-liter flat-six engine, generating an impressive 518 horsepower, inherited from the GT3 RS. Paired with a close-ratio six-speed manual gearbox and featuring a unique lightweight clutch and single-mass flywheel, the 911 S/T accelerates from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just 3.5 seconds and reaches a top speed of 186 mph.
The sleek design of the 911 S/T features vents on the nose, reminiscent of the 911 GT3 with the Touring Package, and a small Gurney flap on the active rear spoiler. Inside the cabin, drivers can choose between carbon-fiber-reinforced-plastic bucket seats or four-way-adjustable Sports Seats Plus. Upholstery options include Classic Cognac cloth with black pinstripes or two-tone semi-aniline leather in Black and Classic Cognac. Green highlights on the instrument cluster and Chrono package’s clock add a touch of sophistication.
For those seeking exclusivity, Porsche offers the Heritage Design Package, boasting a stunning Shore Blue Metallic body and white Ceramica wheels. Buyers can even personalize their car with roundels featuring numbers from 0 to 99 on each door, complementing the classic Porsche design badges on various parts of the car.
As an exciting bonus, buyers can opt for the special edition Porsche Design Chronograph 1 – 911 S/T watch, featuring a titanium case and a winding rotor mirroring the car’s wheels. With three subdials and green accents matching the vehicle’s instrument panel, this timepiece perfectly complements the driving experience. Alternatively, the limited-edition Chronograph 1 – 75 Years Porsche Edition offers a different style and retails at $11,000.
In summary, the 2024 Porsche 911 S/T promises an unparalleled driving experience, fusing the spirit of heritage with cutting-edge innovation. With its limited availability, lightweight design, and powerful performance, the 911 S/T is destined to become a collector’s dream. Brace yourself for the grand debut at the Rennsport Reunion 7, and let Porsche redefine the future of automotive excellence.
