🌟 Welcome to the Porsche 911 S/T: A 60th Anniversary Gift! 🎁

Crafted by Porsche as a celebration of the 60th birthday of the iconic 911, the S/T pays homage to its illustrious past. The name harks back to 1969 when the 911 S transformed into the S/T, a formidable competition car without the reliance on big wings and hefty aero, a beautiful Frankenstein’s monster of its time.

The modern S/T follows a similar path with a contemporary twist. The heart of this beast lies in the naturally-aspirated 521bhp 4-litre boxer engine from the GT3 RS, mated to a short-ratio manual with even shorter cogs than a GT3. Unlike other 911s, it embraces a sleek design without prominent wings, featuring only a short Gurney flap on the electric rear spoiler.

To enhance performance, the S/T ditches the rear-wheel steering system for weight reduction and simplicity. The use of carbon fiber extends to the bonnet, front wings, cage, rear anti-roll bars, and shear panel underneath. Center-lock magnesium wheels, thinned glass, and a lightweight lithium-ion battery further contribute to shedding precious pounds.

With slim carbon bucket seats, weight-conscious powertrain and clutch choices, the S/T proudly claims the title of the lightest production 911. Weighing just 1,380kg, it outshines the manual GT3 Touring by a significant 40kg.
