Porsche 911 Classic 2023 Edition
Porsche 911 Classic 2023 Edition
A limited-edition, 542bhp widebody 911 with a twin-turbo flat-six, rear-wheel drive and – wait for it – a manual gearbox. Yep, three pedals and a stick. 542bhp of old-school vibes wrapped up in some funky retro looks thanks to an overexcited bobblehead’s worth of nods to the past. Oh, and some gawky racing stickers slapped down the side for good measure.
Like the 911 R, the Sport Classic is not really a car about figures, in all honesty, they’re secondary to the experience. But that doesn’t mean they aren’t impressive, and it’s plenty fast. 542bhp and 443 lb-ft at 2,000rpm are good for 0-62mph in 4.1 seconds and a 196mph top speed. In fact, it’d probably go faster than that. You can feel the torque being limited in the first three gears to save the gearbox, so if it could give you the whole lot in one hit it’d go even faster. Plus, it’s down to how good your shifting is.
