Porsche 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series: The Car, The Watch And The Bags
Porsche 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series gets Golden Yellow Metallic finish, carbon-fiber bits, aero upgrades, special interiors, and 27 hp more than the standard Turbo S. Only 500 will be made.
Porsche has opted for a new name for its Porsche Exclusive customization wing. It’s going to be called Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur from now. And to celebrate the name change, the sports carmaker has launched this – the Porsche 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series.
This is the most powerful Porsche 911 Turbo S to come out of the brand’s factory floor. With an additional 27 hp being pulled out of the upgraded twin-turbo 3.8-liter flat-six engine, the special edition’s power output is a mouth-watering 607 hp. It belts out 750 Nm of torque as well. How does that benefit the car’s performance? Well, the added oomph makes the 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series more vigorous. It’ll take only 2.8 seconds to reach 60 mph from a standstill and can top out at 205 mph now. Great numbers, those are.
Since we popped the hood (ehm… the boot in this case) too soon, let’s not ignore the visual updates. The Golden Yellow Metallic paint job is striking and will never fail in garnering attention. This is not meant to be your understated car of the week in any way. The new 20-inch alloys have highlights in the same Golden Yellow shade too. Perfectly complements the rest of the package.

The Porsche 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series will set you back by $257,500. The optional wristwatch is yet to get a US price tag and as for the luggage set, it’s will cost you all of $6,324.

Carbon-fiber. Carmakers are coming up with new and interesting ways to integrate the light and robust fancy material into their production cars. Porsche decided to use it as… wait for it… racing stripes for the 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series. So those two lines on the hood which continue over the roof and conclude on a single piece perched on the boot lid (ehm… engine cover) are actually made of the expensive lightweight material. Splendid. More carbon-fiber application can be found in the side skirts and ram-air scoop. A new rear apron, rear wing, and twin exhaust pipes finish off the drill in stellar fashion.
The interior hasn’t been left out of the special edition treatment. 18-way adjustable sports seats with perforated leather upholstery and Golden Yellow contrast stitching, carbon-fiber door sills with “Exclusive Series” embedded on them and the contrast stitching extending the steering wheel and door panels – the Porsche 911 Turbos S Exclusive Series seems to be in love with its unique exterior color scheme. As expected, the interior has got enough carbon-fiber trim to hold its own against that exterior.
