Overview & Reviews

For the 2008 Porsche 911, the pavement-rippling GT2 model returns, this time sporting 530 horsepower and a top speed exceeding 200 mph. Otherwise, changes are limited to newly optional carbon-fiber racing seats and a more effective sunshade for the 911 Targa's glass roof.

• Outlandish option prices, missing a few common electronic features like Bluetooth and an auxiliary audio jack.

  08 turbo cab tiptronic - 2008 Porsche 911
  By daniel Minc - July 29 - 12:56 am

  Went from an 06 c2s cab stick, to an 08 turbo cab tip. Love the power on demand, glued to the road feeling on country roads. The turbo definitely has a more planted feel on the twisties, probably due to the 4 wheel drive and more weight up front. The c2s felt very light up front with its go kart kind of feel. The main shock to me is how civilized the power train is. Not much of a snarl. no one will hear you and even starting it up is not a noticable event. It unfortunately lacks a killer exhaust note. My 06 C2s started with a snarl which was rewarding. The Tip is smooth as glass, no smg here, and it goes like hell too, but will it fulfill the boy racer desire? Maybe.

  How much for one that works - 2008 Porsche 911
  By maxxx - February 1 - 11:36 pm

  I have owned porsches since 1982, great cars, but what has happened to the quality. Buttons now fall off, electrical system fails - try losing your headlights at 65 on a windy road at midnight (I dont believe they switched to Lucas-but.....) and customer service that talks nice and does nothing. I just dont know, its a blast to drive, but then again, it is a porsche, but then again, its not the porsche I fell in love with

  911 S Conv.,6 speed stick sh. - 2008 Porsche 911
  By Heinz Scheidemandel - June 4 - 4:36 am

  I traded in a 1989 Porsche 911 conv., which I liked a lot. The new one is in many ways a disappointment, although it also handles well. Has a great engine. It is loaded down with unneeded and and unwanted gadgetry, which distracts from the driving fun.The "integrated on board computer with stereo a.GPS" is awkward to use a. frustrating. No oil stick!!
