.............................................................
This is the Porsche 911 Sport Classic, and it just might be the best 911 of all time!
You see, this is no ordinary 911. It’s limited to 1,250 models, and it includes a whole host of classic features from different 911 series and included them in this car for the modern age.
So, what have they done? Starting with the exterior, you’ll find a big stripe up the bonnet to help it stand out from any other 911. It also comes with a double bubble roof, a unique alloy design and some big decals down the side. At the rear, you’ll find some gold Porsche badging, and our personal favourite feature - a ducktail spoiler! That’s right, this is the only new 911 on sale to come with a ducktail!
On the inside, the design is largely based on 911 interiors from yesteryear, whether it be the pattern on the seats or the green lights you’ll find in the dials. Although it looks great, it’s worth noting you can get the same features when speccing up your own new 911, so unfortunately it’s not all that exclusive.
And finally, let’s look at the performance! At the rear, you’ll find the same 3.8-litre twin-turbo engine as found in the current 911 Turbo S. However, the output has been tuned down to 550hp and 600Nm. This is because the 911 Sport Classic is only available as a manual, and only available with rear-wheel drive!
So it all sounds pretty impressive, right? Here’s the thing, though… It’ll set you back at least £214,400!! So is it worth it? There’s only one way to find out… Join Mat for this all-new in-depth review!

    Actually, it is like a normal 6 speed manual. But you can get into the long 7th gear (almost like the 8th gear of the PDK) from 6th to save fuel and to reduce engine noise. Sport Chrono Package is for free with the manual option and I would always go for Sport Chrono in a 911. But I have a problem: The PDK is also absolutely great. And it's faster. A normal Carrera (non S) would be fine for me with manual, but Porsche don't offers that option. Okay - I'm still too poor even for the entry level 911, so that's just fine. Maybe there is once more a 911 T coming up.

    That's what they said about the 911 R, then out came the Carrera T and GT3 Touring. Usually special edition Porsche's are followed up with a mass produced equivalent. I wouldn't be surprised if they produce a 911 Turbo RWD or something afterwards which would tank the value.

    @@lachie5687 You're forgetting there already was a sports classic model from 2010 that was followed by plenty cool Porsches, yet that model is a modern classic of its own. The 911R has more than doubled its value so far so I don't really see where you're coming from. Certainly the Carrera T and GT3 Touring did not tank the value of the 911R, neither did they tank the value of the 2010 Sports Classic with one being sold for $654k, over double its original MSRP. The 911R is its own special car and so is the Sports Classic, the values of which aren't dented by more accessible alternatives such as the Carrera T or GT3 Touring.

    Matt, once all the manuals are out of production, we will all be praising them. That Porsche probably has one of the best manual boxes ever created, I am sure it is fast and precise. Why not celebrate the fact that it may be one of the last manuals in a Porsche, instead of dissing it the whole time? Once we get self driving, electric, speed limited, soulless cars.... you will remember driving this Porsche very well.

    Well said. Dissing manual gearboxes while conveniently ignoring the fact that this car is a limited edition collectors item, not an everyday driver and even comparing the ride to that of an estate car. If it only came in auto or if you had the choice of transmissions then I'm sure Matt would rant about how collectors cars should only be manual. And acting shocked when a limited edition collectors car that will drastically appreciate in value is more expensive than the mass produced Turbo S, how very controversial. Then explaining the unheard of draw backs of city driving with a manual gearbox and feeling the need to explain that you have to down shift.. to overtake.. when in 7th gear. Motoring journalism at its finest..

    I just took my first driving lesson and I *chose* a manual car over automatic. I enjoyed myself, it was so cool to drive a car for the first time and I had a good time managing my clutch and “finding the biting point”. When I left my driving school though, my left leg was killing me. Maybe I need to experience driving faster and on an open road, but after that, I do not understand why a lot of people worship this three-pedal setup like god. I’m sure it’s super fun, but in my circles, it’s getting so cult-like, it’s almost as if people choose to ignore the “other option” completely.

Relatively cheap for a new Porsche, under 140k I think. It was driver focused but not as high performance as the GT3. Does anyone know what I’m talking about? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I definitely agree with him that manual is annoying in town, especially with a heavy clutch + a lot of stop/start traffic. However, this is not a car meant to drive around town. In the end he mentions all the 911 models to get instead, but if he wants an automatic so bad why not get one of those. Why would he want a PDK option in a 911 model like this, that is meant to be a homage to older 911s, which had manual gearboxes? Doesn't make sense to me.
