Porsche 911 Speedster and Carrera GTS live at 2010 Paris Motor Show

The Porsche 911 Speedster and Porsche Carrera GTS might be the ’same old’ Porsche sports cars but they’re still so good to look at.
The live pics from the 2010 Paris Motor Show reveal the two new models, with the Carrera GTS being an example of the ‘best of’ in the Porsche Exclusive accessories category.

It has the 3.
8-litre engine with 408 hp and is available in both coupé and cabriolet models.
The Speedster on the other hand, can be considered an all-new model for Porsche.
The 911 Speedster is a modern interpretation of the original 964 model and just 356 units will be made.

It’s characterised by a lowered windshield (by 60 mm) and an aerodynamic style with a bulky but classic rear end.
The engine is matched with a dual-clutch PDK transmission and performance stats are a top speed of 305 km/hr and a 4.
4 second sprint to 100 km/hr.
The Speedster weighs 1,540 kg.
On display from Porsche at the Paris Show is also the 911 GT2 RS built in 500 models and equipped with a 3.
6-litre twin turbo engine with 620 hp.
It’s strictly a rear-wheels drive model and weighs 1,370 kg due to the weight reduction and use of carbon fibre typical of RS models.

The event also provided a chance for the public handover of the CEO reigns from Michael Macht to Matthias Müller, photographed together with the Porshce 911 GT3 R Hybrid.
