2017 Porsche 911 991.2 Targa 4 MY18

Taking their lead from the now collectable 996 C4 S of the late 90s, Porsche gave the current 991.2 911 C4 the supercar-swatting Turbo model’s wider rear arches and Tron® inspired rear light bar that connects the two rear light units together.

The models available at launch included the Carrera 4 coupe and cabriolet, the 4S coupe and cabriolet, and the stunning, rarely seen Targa 4 and Targa 4S.

All variants came with Porsche’s all new 3.0 litre bi-turbo flat-six engine producing a whopping 365hp as standard and when fitted with the optional Sport Chrono package, the base model does 0 -100km/h in a phenomenal 4.1 seconds.

These all adjust various behaviours of the car, including throttle response, steering weight, transmission shifting character, the PASM suspension firmness.
