The 2024 Porsche 911 bears an uncanny resemblance to the first car to wear the name, a testament to the wisdom of its mid-engine fastback design. Unlike that first car, the latest 911 is brimming with performance and technology innovations unimaginable 60 years ago, offered in a wide variety spanning no less than 26 different trims.
Porsche 911 buyers can opt for a solid top, convertible top, or Targa top and choose rear-wheel or all-wheel drive, the latter denoted by the number “4” after the name. Add to that a nearly endless list of options, colors, and interior materials, and it is easy to see why the 911 satisfies so many wants.
Along with the mainstay 911 models are a few limited-production high-performance versions such as the GT3 RS, Dakar, and new 911 S/T.
Competition for the 911 includes the Chevrolet Corvette and Audi R8 and more lofty rivals from such legendary names as Ferrari, Lamborghini, and McLaren.
Prices are current at the time of publishing.
What’s New:
Porsche introduces a new 911 S/T model. Commemorating the 911’s 60th anniversary, the S/T is a lightweight variant of the GT3, offered only with a manual transmission and limited to just 1,963 copies. The 911’s infotainment system gains wireless Android Auto and the Spotify app.
Our Recommendation:
From the perspective of cost versus performance, we’d pick the Carrera S. However, each trim appeals to a specific driver, and since money is rarely a concern amongst Porsche buyers, the Turbo or Turbo S might be the best all-around choice.

2024 Porsche 911 Carrera: $114,400

- Carrera T: $124,900
- Carrera Cabriolet: $127,200
- Carrera 4: $121,700
- Carrera 4 Cabriolet: $134,500
- Carrera Targa 4: $134,500
The Carrera line features a 379-hp twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter flat 6-cylinder engine. A flat engine (sometimes called a boxer engine) has its pistons horizontally opposed rather than in a V or vertical arrangement.
The standard transmission is an 8-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic in all but the Carrera T, which gets a 7-speed manual with the 8-speed automatic optional.
The Carrera rides on staggered wheels, 19 inches in front and 20 in the rear. Porsche’s Active Suspension Management (PASM) system comes standard, as does an auto-deploying rear spoiler, heated power side mirrors, auto on/off LED headlights, and Comfort Access keyless entry with push-button start.
The 911 isn’t big on high-tech driver-assist equipment, but it does include forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, front and rear parking sensors, and a federally required rear backup camera.
Interior amenities include heated and partially leather-covered manual Sport Seats with power recline. You also get cruise control, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a tilt/telescoping steering wheel with paddle shifters.
The Carrera’s infotainment system consists of a 10.9-inch color touchscreen playing host to Porsche navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, SiriusXM satellite radio, Spotify, and numerous Porsche-connected services.
The standard audio consists of a 150-watt amp driving eight speakers.
Now, the fun part: options.
Porsche offers hundreds of possible 911 configurations. There are standard and custom paint options, various kinds of leather and Sport-Tex seat upholstery, upgraded wheels, and even the chance to pick up your car at Porsche Experience Centers in Atlanta, Los Angeles, or the European factory.
Some of the more notable upgrades include 14-way power Sport Seats, 18-way Adaptive Sport Seats, a carbon-fiber roof, a power sunroof (coupe), a 13-speaker Burmester audio system, adaptive cruise control, a heated steering wheel, and night vision.
Check the box for the Premium Package with Remote ParkAssist, and you’ll get adaptive headlights, a Surround View monitor, lane-change assist, ventilated front seats, power-folding side mirrors, and Remote ParkAssist.
Remote ParkAssist includes a feature that lets the 911 enter or leave a parking space using a smartphone app. The system can also self-parallel or -perpendicular park.
On the performance front, buyers can add a front axle lift system (to keep the front spoiler from scraping on speed bumps or steeply angled driveways), the Sport Chrono Package, an extended range fuel tank, a performance exhaust, and ceramic-composite brakes.
With the $1,650 destination charge, the 2024 Porsche 911 Carrera comes to $116,050. On a 60-month loan with 5% financing and $0 down, the monthly payment totals approximately $2,190. See 2024 Porsche 911 Carrera models for sale near you
2024 Porsche 911 Carrera includes:
PASM – Porsche’s active suspension management responds instantly to changes in the road surface, helping the 911 remain comfortable but planted in high-speed maneuvers.
Dual-clutch transmission – The 911’s 8-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic transmission is faster and more efficient than a manual transmission, although not always as much fun.
Wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay – With the 911’s wireless connectivity, you can access your phone without removing it from your purse or pocket.

A torque-vectoring rear differential, an upgraded stability control system, and bigger brakes all aid in the Carrera S’s ability to tackle turns.
Optional equipment for the Carrera S mimics that of the Carrera, except for the ability to add a 7-speed manual transmission, a 10-millimeter-lower suspension, LED-matrix headlights, and rear-axle steering.
In addition to the Burmester audio upgrade, the Carrera S also offers a less expensive 570-watt, 12-speaker Bose audio system.

Standard equipment includes a 10-millimeter-lower suspension, launch control, Track Precision app, the Sport Chrono Package that adds a stopwatch/clock atop the dash, and multiple drive modes.
The GTS also gets a sport exhaust, adaptive headlights, Sport Seat Plus (adds power height adjustment and additional side bolstering), and deleted sound insulation to reduce weight.
Among the more interesting GTS options are weight-saving packages that delete the rear seat and insert a 3D-printed bodyform full-bucket driver’s seat in soft, medium, or hard.
With the $1,650 destination charge, the 2024 Porsche 911 GTS comes to $152,550. On a 60-month loan at 5% financing and $0 down, the monthly payment totals $2,879. See 2024 Porsche 911 Carrera GTS models for sale near you
2024 Porsche 911 GTS includes:
473 hp – Tweaks to the 3.0-liter engine give the GTS an edge over the Carrera S, with a 0-60 mph time of just 3.2 seconds.
Lowered suspension – Being 10 millimeters closer to the road lessens body roll and helps the GTS corner with added confidence.
Sport Chrono Package – Replacing the analog dash clock is a digital and analog chronograph. It serves as a stopwatch when running laps but can be configured like a conventional clock for everyday driving. The package also contains additional drive modes such as Sport Plus and Sport Response, active driveline mounts, launch control, and a racetrack app.

2024 Porsche 911 Turbo: $197,200 (Coupe), $210,000 (Cabriolet)
The Turbo ups the 911’s performance quotient with a 572-hp 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged flat-6, standard all-wheel drive (AWD), and several optional performance upgrades from the Carrera S and GTS.
Standard equipment for the Turbo includes rear-axle steering, launch control, Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus, and an 8-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic transmission.
The Turbo features bigger brakes, a performance exhaust, Dynamic engine mounts, the Sport Chrono Package, and wide rear fenders with integrated air ducts.
Active Aerodynamics brings an auto-deploying front spoiler and rear wing.
The Turbo’s cabin adds 14-way power Sport Seats with memory, leather upholstery, a multifunction GT Sport steering wheel, and the Bose audio system.
One noteworthy option for the Turbo is full-bucket seats with rear-seat delete.

3.8-liter engine – This larger engine develops an impressive 572 hp, giving the 911 Turbo a 0-60 mph time of just 2.7 seconds.
Rear-axle steering – The Turbo delivers precise turn-in by pointing the rear wheels opposite the fronts at low speeds. At higher speeds, the rear wheels point slightly in the same direction as the fronts, improving stability in sweeping bends.
Dynamic engine mounts – Engine mounts filled with a magnetic fluid stiffen as the 911 Turbo enters a curve, reducing any outward spike in force caused by the engine’s mass.
2024 Porsche 911 Turbo S: $230,400 (Coupe), $243,200 (Cabriolet)
The Turbo S builds off the Turbo, with a 640-hp 3.8-liter engine and a 2.6-second 0-60 mph time.

- GT3 RS: $241,300
- 911 Dakar: $222,000
- 911 S/T: $290,000
