Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS Convertible 2011
The 911 Carrera 4 GTS Cabriolet is the more aired-out version of the newly introduced pair of more powerful all-wheel drive Carreras, Marking the second of the two new models introduced by Porsche in its ever-expanding 911 lineup. Just like the 4 GTS Coupe, the Cabriolet model gains the powerful 408 horsepower 3.8-liter six-cylinder engine from the GTS rear-wheel drive models and adds in front-wheel drive as well, for a uniquely drop-top all-wheel drive experience.
Like the Coupe, Porsche says fuel economy stays the same, which the automaker attributes to Porsche Intelligent Performance technology. Porsche says that the 4 GTS is built with hardcore performance in mind.
As expected, the Cabriolet gains a few pounds over the sealed-top counterpart thanks to the mechanics of its convertible design.
In terms of cosmetic differences between other 911 models, the new Carrera 4 GTS Cabriolet comes with the expected unique badging on the doors and rear lid, as well as an additional reflective stripe between the taillights. Of course, the 4 GTS uses the same wide body found on other AWD models.
Towards the front, one will notice the Porsche Sport-Design front apron with a black painted spoiler lip and matching black special side skirts.
