Porsche 911

Hello everyone. This is Mina, the administrator of "A Porsche Came to My Home". I would like to share the real voices of various Porsche owners with you! This project was born from the request of our readers, "I want to share the real voices of various Porsche owners!Porsche Owner's File". The 20th edition was given to us by "ACCENT".The 911 Turbo S Exclusive is a rare model, limited to six units in Japan.Purchase, Options, and Driving Review.

〘Owner Information〙
My car: 911 turbo S Exclusive
Pen name: accent
(Your area of residence): North Kanto
Family members: Wife, 2 dogs
I have driven several cars in the past, mostly German cars.As for Porsche, this is my third 911 alone and fifth Porsche overall.It is.
Cayenne (early model) → 911 (997.1) → Panamera → 911 (997.2) → 911 (this time 911 Turbo S Exclusive)
*All are turbo or turbo S.

(1) Background leading to purchase

One morning, I was looking at the Porsche of America website.911 Turbo S ExclusiveI have found a "Porsche". I haven't driven a Porsche for a while, but I found "If this gets introduced to Japan, I'd love to drive a Porsche again!I thought, "I'm not going to be able to do that.

Then, as soon as it was posted on the Japanese website, I immediately went straight to the dealer and made a reservation.However, this model is limited to 6 units in Japan.So, when I had made an appointment but had completely forgotten about it, the dealer told me thatAvailable for purchaseThe company was informed that "the

No way!" I thought, "No way!" But I pushed myself to buy it, knowing that this would probably happen only once in my lifetime or so.

(2) Options / Specifications

It is in a state where it is safe to say that full options are available. However, there are not many options to begin with.Adaptive Cruise Control, Front Lift, Rear Wipers, Burmester Audio.Such as.

(3) Process of vehicle delivery

."Available for purchaseI think it was a little more than half a year since the "Mere Old Man" started working with the company.For limited edition vehicles, import vehicle inspections, etc. are different.It took several months after arriving in Toyohashi.

4) Performance of the 911 Turbo S Exclusive that I feel after owning it

Personally, it is no different from the 911 turbo S (991.2). Numerically, but sensibly, I don't think the average person, including myself, would be able to tell a big difference.

(1) Engine / Engine sound

As for the engine noise.Flat Six's unique toneIt is. At idle, the sound is very subdued, giving the impression of a dry, lean sound. However, once the driver steps on the accelerator pedal, the sound is very strong.It roared to life, its entire body held down by gravity, by over 600 horsepower.My head is so white.

The driver can control the RPMs as desired throughout the entire range, even in the city, and draw exactly the amount of power he or she wants.

It can easily be brought into a power slide with a few centimeters of precision if desired, but since torque is distributed to the front wheels in a linear fashion, including during that time, it is also easy to make them converge as if being pulled by an invisible rope from the front.

As long as the environment is in place, you can enjoy sports driving with peace of mind.

(2) About PDK

PDK is much more sophisticated than the previous one (997.2).impression. In addition, when Sport Plus is selected with the wheel switch on the steering wheel, the shift plagram changes to look like a racing car.

I even feel as if I am a better driver.

(3) Ride comfort, glide taste

I think it is very good. The soft and flat ride is maintained at all speeds, and the car stays tenaciously where it needs to stay on the ground.The rigidity of the body is just vaultThe driver feels a strong sense of protection and a sense of oneness and security with the car every time he or she turns a corner.

In addition, the shape, softness, and hold of the seats are all excellent, contributing greatly to the comfort of the ride.

Handling / Braking

I think it is very good.Less load due to the absence of the engine at the front of the vehicleTherefore, we believe that the ability to soften the basic spring rate is a major contributing factor. All animals kick the earth with their hind legs and steer with their front legs, and this gives us a sense of a design concept based on principles.

In the old 911.It was often the case that the driver would enter a corner while intentionally controlling the load by leaving the brakes on slightly, but this is almost unnecessary with today's 911.We think that this is a good idea.

As with any Porsche.The brakes are also absolutely reliable.Brakes. It is the image of four wheels sinking evenly and biting into the ground to cut down the speed.

    Nice to meet you, I was shown the second of 6 limited editions in Japan. Agate gray is nice ^_^.
    Mine is Carrara White. It is also fitted with studless tires, so it looks like it has been ridden a lot. After reading your report, I think I need to ride my car more.
