2003 Porsche 996 X50 Twin Turbo-


21k miles, Tiptronic S transmission.  This is a very rare Porsche.  The X50 upgrade is basically a GT2 with all wheel drive and more luxury options.  It has the GT2 bigger K24 Turbos and Intercooler. It also has a more free flowing exhaust with a deeper tone and a factory tune which adds up to 450 Horse Power and 450 Ft/Lbs. of Torque.  This is a 35 horsepower gain over a stock 996TT.  The X-50 upgrade was $17,000 from the factory at the time of purchase.  The original owner also added a Porsche factory GT2 front bumper cover at the time of purchase which was $5,000. This was not included in the $151,000 purchase price of the car when new.  In 2004 the X-50 package became the "Turbo S".  But the X50 was a more rare car especially with the Tiptronic S transmission.  I purchased the car from the original owner with 10k miles around 3 years ago and due to extensive travel for my job I have no time to drive it.  I have been a Porsche Club of America member for over 20 years and this is the 6th and best Porsche that I have owned.  The car is always garage kept and is at my house in the state of  Florida where it has spent its entire life.  There are no dents, dings, or scratches and there is no curb rash on any of the wheels.  The car has been washed and waxed religiously and was recently clay bared and professionally detailed.  There is a 3M clear bra that was professionally installed on the front and mirrors by the Ferrari body shop in Ft. Lauderdale.  I am the second owner, it has only been driven by adults and drives perfectly.  This is a very smooth and fast Porsche with no rattles at all.   It has supple leather, Bose system with subwoofer, Porsche crest in headrest, Dark wood package with Leather and Wood steering wheel, wood shift knob with Porsche crest, Wood E-Brake. The car is completely stock except for the Front and Rear GT2 spoilers and a leather armrest with cup holder.  Since I have owned the car I have replaced the battery with a new Bosch unit. The oil and cabin filter were recently changed.  I have 3 keys, all books and records.

Porsche GT division rules out AWD, SUVs

Fri, Mar 13 2015

Any German automaker worth its lap times needs a performance division. Mercedes has AMG, BMW has the M division, Audi has Quattro GmbH with its S and RS models... even Volkswagen has its R line of hot hatches. And though Porsche is a performance automaker unto itself, even it has a performance division. It's called Porsche GT, and though it's been branching outside the 911 range lately, don't expect it to wander too far. According to Car and Driver, which spoke recently with Porsche GT boss Andreas Preuninger and R&D chief Wolfgang Hatz, there are limits to what the division will do. And while those limits may have been broadened to include technologies like turbocharging and dual-clutch transmissions, they won't stretch as far as all-wheel drive. Take a look at the previous-generation 997 and what separated the 911 GT2 from the 911 Turbo was principally its all-wheel-drive system. Porsche GT isn't planning on doing a GT2 this time around – the new GT3 RS occupying that territory on its own – but the next generation (whether it wears the number 2 or 3) will likely go turbo along with most of the rest of the 911 family. The exclusion of all-wheel drive from the Porsche GT parts bin also means that the division won't be taking on the company's SUVs like the Cayenne and Macan. So the Cayenne GTS will be as extreme as it gets, taking on the likes of the BMW X5 M, Mercedes GL63 and Audi SQ5 without the help of Zuffenhausen's racing department. We can't expect the PDK to stick around though, so to speak. Though the new Cayman GT4 packs a manual transmission, the 911 GT3 and GT3 RS have dual-clutch gearboxes. Moving forward, Preuninger says they'll leave it up to prospective customers to decide which type of transmission they'll build into their most extreme performance models.

2017 Porsche 911 Carrera experienced from the passenger seat

Sat, Sep 26 2015

Autoblog joins Porsche for Rennsport Reunion V at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, the fifth international gathering of all things Porsche. If you've ever had a picture of a Porsche on your wall or dreamed of owning a certain model, either that very car or one just like it is here. Watching three 917 racers blaze over the rise at the front straight and down into turn one can make a viewer think, "So this is how Steve McQueen felt..." It was a modern Porsche that delivered one of the highlights of the first day, though: we rode shotgun for three hot laps of the track in the new turbocharged 991.2-series 911 Carrera S, with Thomas Krickelberg, director of powertrain for the 911 model line, our pilot. We cornered him and August Achleitner, vice president of the 911 product line, for a few questions about the changes. What do you call the standard 911 now that it has turbocharged engines? Carrera. If you're wondering what to call the standard 911 now that they have turbocharged engines, the answer is: Carrera. Krickelberg said, "In-house we call them 'little turbo' and 'big turbo,'" but the Carrera is a model line within the 911 model line, the big boy 911 Turbo is a second model line within the 911 family. One will continue to be called Carrera, the other simply Turbo. The move to turbocharging came to serve the twin kings of performance and fuel economy, but engineers played around with numerous configurations. A non-turbo engine displacing about 4.0 liters – that's as big as the 9A1 engine block can go – was considered, but that setup couldn't deliver the desired fuel efficiency. Krickelberg said engineers considered a small-displacement block of around 2.0 liters, but that was abandoned because "takeoff behavior was worse" because the turbo was called upon to do too much of the heavy performance living. Krickelberg added, "Not only that, but there was a too big a gap between real-world fuel economy and homologation fuel economy." Base Carrera and the Carrera S models haven't used the same engine displacement since the 996 series departed at the end of 2004. Achleitner said, "We found 3.0 liters is the best solution to get the best mix of fuel and air in combustion chamber - it offered the best geometry, bore and stroke, and the size of the walls.

Porsche looks back on very first 911 Turbo

Wed, 11 Jun 2014

Porsche has really hit on a winning formula with its series of videos going inside its vault. So far, we've seen the V8 911 prototype, mid-engine test mule and aerodynamic prototype. The company is sticking with the 911 theme in the latest entry, but this time it's an actual production car - the very first 911 Turbo ever made.
Being the first Turbo would make it important enough, but the car was also a birthday present for Louise Piëch, daughter of Ferdinand Porsche and sister to Ferry Porsche, and she regularly used the car. The family didn't just hand her a random car off the assembly line, either. She got to make it her own with some interesting modifications. She supposedly even painted landscapes from inside the car.
You have to wonder what Piëch thought of her present. The early Turbos had a reputation for being a bit of a handful to drive. The boost tended to bring the power all at once, which wasn't always welcome when cornering. She deserves some honor just for driving the car on the curvy, alpine roads. Scroll down to learn about this important Porsche, and we can't wait to see what car the brand showcases next.
