The Porsche Turbo S is actually quite luxurious. It offers all of the comfort features of the regular Turbo, to which it adds its own special leather upholstery and 30 more horsepower.

Holy son of a botch! Un-farkin’ believable! Redunculous! Sick! Mother-arfer! These censored and modified for our family programming captions were all followed by: “That’s fast!” Yes, the 2011 Porsche 911 Turbo S is wicked insanely fast.

The Porsche 911 Turbo S is a very satisfying car. It’s a very, very rapid car, even in the current era of hyper-fast production cars.

You could drive a Turbo daily — it’s got the most luxury, space (hey, two back seats for the kids!), and refined powertrain of any supercar. But the rock-hard suspension can’t absorb bumps.

Mike Monticello Mike Monticello 6.6 out of 10 2010 Porsche 911 Turbo S Coupe

The seventh-generation Porsche 911 Turbo features the first truly new engine in the model’s 35-year history. Result? A car that is greatly improved, and could very well be the most “livable” supercar in the world.

The 911 Turbo delivers performance that competes with cars that cost substantially more, while providing everyday usability that most exotics simply can’t match. In that regard, it retains the spirit of that original 1974 Turbo.
