2009 Porsche 911 Turbo Review, Features, and Walk Around

Call 484-612-4147 for full pricing and details of this 2009 Porsche 911 Turbo. The Porsche 997 Turbo marked the end of the turbocharged Hans Mezger race-derived flat six, and this 911 Turbo in Carrera White with Sea Blue leather interior is an 18,992 mile example with a generous collection of desirable Porsche factory options. This meticulously maintained car will give its next owner the same feeling of driving a new 911 Turbo off the lot that the first owner enjoyed in 2009. The 2009 Porsche 911 Turbo boasts 480 horsepower thanks to a last-and-best example of the turbocharged 3.6 liter flat six. This car's Turbo Sport Chrono package also permits a ten-second overboost that increases the torque from a standard 460 lb*ft to 505. 0-60 mph times of under three seconds and quarter miles times of 12 seconds flat at up to 120 miles per hour are possible in a car that remains fast even by the staggering standards of 2026 sports cars. The Mezger engine originated on the Porsche 962 IMSA and Group C race car of the 1980s. Porsche engineer Hans Mezger's design retains many of its racing features in this road application. Those features include true remote reservoir dry sump oiling, full forged internals, robustly cast two-piece block, cam-driven intermediate shaft with stronger bearing than other Porsche M96 and M97 engines, and generally stronger construction for high performance applications. Additional performance features include the first torque-biasing 911 all wheel drive system courtesy of a liquid cooled differential that can send up to 100 percent of torque to either the front or rear axle. This 911 Turbo includes the optional limited slip locking differential to ensure that the weight-biased rear wheels of the car can maximize grip on acceleration. This car also includes the Porsche Carbon Ceramic Brake option for relentless stopping without fade, reduced unsprung weight, and long rotor life. This car includes a rare interior option - the Sport Bucket Seats - which add significant bolstering and support for sustained high performance cornering without uncontrolled shifting of body weight. A six-speed manual transmission maintains robust driver interaction and control of the engine's powerband. Car review by Tim Mosso
