This is Porsche's limited edition 911 Sport Classic, a car that's said to steal heavily from the iconic rear-engined sports car. Only 250 units of this car will be built. It is fitted with a 'ducktail' spoiler made famous by the 1973 Carrera RS 2.7 and 'Fuchs-style' custom-made alloy wheels from the same era. It also has a 'double bubble' roof that echoes both classic racing cars and the recent Carrera GT supercar.
To improve aerodynamics, a new front spoiler was installed to help balance with the rear wing. The bi-xenon headlamps with black surrounds are reminiscent of the famous Porsche racing cars such as the 911 Turbo RSR from 1974.
Due to a new intake, an engine management system, and modified cylinder heads, the 3.8-liter engine in the Sport Classic is boosted to 402bhp. The car also boasts of the new, variable-resonance intake system, featuring six vacuum-controlled flaps, which allows the engine to switch a more power-oriented and a more torque-oriented geometry.
