Porsche Black Edition Boxster S Coming to Beverly Hills

Porsche Boxster Black Edition
Beverly Hills Porsche is pleased to announce the Porsche Boxster model line has a new luxurious top model in addition to the sporty Boxster Spyder: The Boxster S Black Edition limited to 987 cars. With its 320 hp – ten hp more than the Boxster S – this edition offers a substantially larger range of standard equipment and exclusive special options, all at a very attractive price. The new mid-engined sports car is black all over: Black body, black hood, and black 19 inch Boxster Spyder wheels accentuate the muscular appearance of the top roadster. The Boxster S Black Edition will be launched in March 2011 and should arrive in Beverly Hills early in the month.
The color concept of the Boxster S Black Edition is consistent in every detail. The rear side air intake grilles are painted in black as is the twin tailpipe of the exhaust system. The model lettering painted in black on the rear luggage compartment lid identifies the Black Edition as much as the embossed Black Edition model designation on the side of the fabric hood. The roll-over bars are painted in black, too.

The black line of the exterior is continued in the interior. The stainless steel door entry guards feature the "Black Edition" model lettering in black. The standard Sport Design steering wheel with its double-spoke appeal has a non-slip rim of smooth-finish leather and sporty grips. The trim strips of the dashboard and of shift lever or gear selector are painted in black. The dials on the instrument cluster are black as are the partial leather seats with the Porsche emblem embossed in the headrests. Also available upon request: black leather interior. The limited edition badge on the glove compartment identifies the sports car as a model of the Black Edition.

As a standard, the Boxster S Black Edition features the otherwise optional "Comfort", "Infotainment", and "Design" equipment packages, and therefore comes at a more favorable price than a series model with comparable equipment options. The wind deflector is on board right from the factory as are the anti-dazzle interior and exterior mirrors with integrated rain sensor, cruise control and a climate control system. The Porsche Communication Management (PCM) including navigation module are also standard. In addition, the universal audio interface and mobile phone preparation are available as standard. The Sound Package Plus creates an impressive interior sound experience. The standard Bi-Xenon lights with dynamic cornering lights and LED daytime running lights ensure driving pleasure and safety on dark roads. Upon request, the Boxster S Black Edition can be individualized even further with other options of the Boxster program. For example, the Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB) is an option as well as the Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) and the adaptive sports seats with memory function.

The chassis of the Boxster S Black Edition features clear lines with a sporty appeal. A decisive contribution to improve driving dynamics of the limited edition models even further are the tires size 235/35 ZR 19 front and 265/35 ZR 19 rear on particularly lightweight wheels in the special ten-spoke design of the Boxster Spyder. As is typical for a Boxster, the new top model of the mid-engined sports car with its low center of gravity as a result of the flat engine reaches an even more impressive level of agility.

A 3.4-liter six-cylinder engine with direct fuel injection, mounted in front of the rear axle of the Boxster S Black Edition, supplies power to the car. Its output is 320 hp – ten hp more than in the Boxster S. The engine reaches its rated power at 7,200 rpm, the Boxster S power pack at 6,400 rpm. Torque of 370 Nm boosted by ten newton meters is available at 4,750 rpm.


More output and more power equal more dynamics: The Boxster S Black Edition underpins its leading position by a superior driving performance. With its standard six-speed manual transmission, it accelerates from zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 5.2 seconds, a tenth of a second faster than the Boxster S. The top model reaches its maximum speed at 171.5 mph, outpacing the Boxster S by 1.2 mph. The mid-engined sports car is modest only in its thirst for fuel. During the NEDC test cycle, the Boxster S Black Edition contents itself with as much fuel as the Boxster S: 28.82 mpg.

To raise dynamics and efficiency even further, the Boxster S Black Edition may alternatively also be fitted with the seven-speed Doppelkupplungsgetriebe (PDK). This will shorten acceleration times from zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) to 5.1 seconds, the top speed with PDK is 170.3 mph. In comparison with a manual transmission, an additional speed and an intelligent shifting strategy lower fuel consumption to 9.4 litres per 100 kilometres during the NEDC complete cycle.

Live From Detroit: The Racing Lab Porsche 918 RSR Revealed

Los Angeles Porsche dealers got up early to watch a live broadcast form the 2011 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit. The big announcement; a 767 bhp hybrid super car badged the 918 RSR Racing Lab.

Nobody expected this. There was no advance notice. There were no empty promises. There is no turning back: with the 911 GT3 R Hybrid, the future of motorsports began for Porsche in 2010. ‘Year Zero’ of the hybrid age on the racetrack. After several races we could well say: mission accomplished, theory substantiated. But that’s not enough for us. Our most important finding: Hybrid can do more.



This is the racing version of the Porsche 918 Spyder, the Hybrid Super Car scheduled to be in production, its badged with the number “22” in honor of the Le Mans record setting Porsche 917 of 1971.
















Porsche is continuing to extend its performance and high efficiency competence via intensive development work in the field of hybrid technology. With the Porsche 918 RSR, the manufacturer of sporty premium vehicles is presenting a high-end synthesis of 2010's successful hybrid concepts. The two-seater mid-engine coupé 918 RSR clearly reveals what happens when the technology fitted in the 911 GT3 R hybrid and the design of the 918 Spyder are transferred to a modern, innovative super sports car.

Top accolades for Porsche from Germany, Australia, UK and USA

The sports cars of Porsche AG, Stuttgart, are as popular and highly regarded as ever, not just in Beverly Hills but all over the world.

Beverly Hills Porsche - 2011 Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet
In Germany, three Porsche sports cars top the list of the models with the best value retention, as Deutsche Automobil Treuhand (DAT) has now revealed in a projection. According to its findings the Porsche 911 holds its value better than any other model on the German market, followed by the Boxster and the Cayman. Other-make cars only start to appear from fourth place down.

In Australia, a jury comprising eleven motor journalists from the “Sydney Morning Herald”, “The Age” and “drive.com.au” voted the Porsche Boxster the best convertible and chose it as winner of the “Drive Car of the Year Award”. The mid-engine sports car had already won this distinction in the previous year and once again impressed the testers mainly thanks to its “sensational performance when cornering and braking, its characteristic six-cylinder engine and the astonishingly practical and brilliant Doppelkupplungsgetriebe (PDK)”.

EVO "Car of the Year 2010" - Porsche 911 GT3 RS
In the UK, the car magazine EVO voted the Porsche 911 GT3 RS “Car of the Year 2010”, stealing the thunder from a whole host of high-calibre competitors with its authentic handling. It even beat the 911 GT2 RS, which came in third, making Porsche the only brand to appear twice in EVO’s top ten favourites list. And car tester Richard Hammond from the popular UK TV programme “Top Gear” also selected the 911 GT2 RS as his personal “Car of the Year”. “Top Gear” presented another award to Porsche Development Director Wolfgang DĂĽrheimer, whom it named “Man of the Year” in recognition of the energy-efficient but supercar-worthy concept of the Porsche 918 Spyder.

Beverly Hills Porsche - 2011 Porsche Boxster Spyder

In the USA, the renowned “Car and Driver Magazine” included the Boxster and the Cayman in its list of the ten best vehicles on sale in the United States. This was already the tenth occasion in twelve years that one of Porsche’s mid-engine sports cars had scooped this award. Both “are prime examples of classic Porsche values”, commended the magazine. The Boxster and the Cayman also just received the eighth win in the prestigious Automobile Magazine All-Star award.
