Car reviews - Porsche - 911 - Carrera 4S coupe

What's Changed

9 Aug 2002

THE C4S is new to Australia within the current 911 model series, although a C4S was part of the previous 993 model line-up from late 1995. The tough-looking 911, with its 60mm wider bodyshell, 10mm lower ride height and twin tailpipes, appeared here as a replacement for the Carrera 4 when the facelifted 911 came here in August, 2001. That facelift included a fresher interior for all 911 models, including - for the first time - cupholders and a glovebox - plus seatbelt pretensioners with belt force limiters, a 25kg weight gain due to extra roof and side reinforcing, and Turbo-look front and rear styling - including headlights, but this time Halogen not bi-Xenon units. The 911's standard six-cylinder boxer engine also came in for a 14kW power hike, courtesy of a 200c increase in displacement, to 3.6 litres. The addition of the Turbo model's VarioCam Plus variable valve timing technology also helped lift peak torque to 370Nm.

Did you know?

Porsche presented the 911 at the Frankfurt International Automobile Show in 1963. Designed by Ferry Porsche's son, Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, it featured a new flat six-cylinder engine but remained true to the VW concept of using a rear-mounted, air-cooled boxer engine. The first 911 began production in 1964
