Loosely translated from the original German

The fastest German production sports car, the Porsche 911 Turbo, is also the only street car directly derived from a racing car. In doing so, the 911 Turbo combines its racing characteristics with absolute everyday usability.

As part of the model maintenance, the 911 Turbo received a dual-pipe exhaust system at the beginning of the 1980 model year, which reduces its maximum noise emission from 82 dBA by 25 percent to now 79 dBA, without losing power. Thus, the 911 Turbo, now referred to as the "whispering racer," is also equipped with a new tube oil cooler that keeps the engine temperature within civil limits even in tropical heat and continuous full-throttle driving.

Its 3.3-liter six-cylinder engine delivers 221 kW (300 hp) at only 5500 rpm and accelerates the car from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.4 seconds and from 0 to 160 km/h in 13.4 seconds. For the "standing kilometer," it only needs 24 seconds. These values already indicate the level of active safety that makes the Porsche 911 Turbo as desirable as the fact that it is already a long-term car: The use of galvanized steel sheet, as with every Porsche, ensures that the 911 Turbo practically does not rust.
