It's the high-test version of the 911 Turbo, which is itself the most powerful version of that iconic sportscar available today.

540 horsepower is what you get in the base Turbo. The S? A whopping 580.

But, press the Sport Response button on the steering wheel, if you get the optional Sport Chrono package, and you'll get a boost of even more power for 20 seconds!

Both the rear wing and front lip extend at speed for additional downforce.

It'll cost you, though. The base 911 Turbo starts at $159,200. Step up to the S and you're looking at $188,100 to start.

Pricey, but a single use of launch control in this beast and you'll see it's totally worthwhile.
