Celebratory 911 Club Coupe Marks Half-Century Porsche Partnership

Porsche has unveiled an ultra-limited 911 Club Coupe to honour the 70th anniversary of the Porsche Club of America, reviving a tradition now in its third generation. Sixty-nine of these handcrafted editions will be offered for purchase to PCA members in the US and Canada, while a single example will be raffled to a lucky club member—and the inaugural unit will join the Porsche Museum collection. Drawing inspiration from the Carrera T, the new Club Coupe features a 3.0‑litre flat‑six engine delivering 388 hp, paired exclusively with a six‑speed manual gearbox complete with a walnut shift knob. Its chassis benefits from Porsche Active Suspension Management Sport, mechanical limited‑slip differential, rear‑axle steering, Sport Chrono package, a Sport Exhaust system and six‑piston front brakes—everything a purist enthusiast could hope for. Appearance is dominated by a distinctive Sholar Blue metallic finish—a bespoke hue developed through collaboration between Style Porsche, Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur and the PCA since 2023. The subtle reimagination of the historic 'Clubblau' paint is complemented by red accents on the SportDesign aero front fascia, Satin Black and Brilliant Silver RS Spyder wheels, a 'Club Coupe' door-legends decal, and a unique 'PCA 70 Year' badge on the engine grille. ADVERTISEMENT Inside, the cabin features illuminated door sills and puddle lamps bearing the PCA 70-year logo, black leather seats highlighted with Speed Blue and Guards Red stitching, and a retro walnut shift lever. Optional tartan seat inserts mirror those found in past PCA editions. Owners may also acquire the Porsche Design Chronograph 1 – 911 Club Coupe watch, which echoes the wheel design with its rotor and sports a titanium or textile strap in PCA colours. This marks the third limited‑edition PCA Club Coupe, following the 50th‑anniversary Carrera S in 2005 and the 60th‑anniversary Carrera GTS in 2015. The new Club Coupe retains the manual-box light‐weight ethos of the Carrera T, ensuring a driver‑focused experience. The vehicle debuted at the 2025 PCA Parade in Oklahoma City during a ceremony attended by PCA members and Porsche executives. Timo Resch, President and CEO of Porsche Cars North America, said the car celebrates 'the passion' of PCA members, describing their enthusiasm as 'unmistakable'. Aaron Ambrosino, PCA President, commented that the car symbolises 'what the PCA…stands for,' and reflected excitement for seeing these Coupes at PCA events for 'many years to come'. Production is slated to run from autumn 2025 through spring 2026. While pricing has not been confirmed, it is expected to exceed the base 911 Carrera T price of around US $141,000, factoring in bespoke paint, exclusive trim and additional equipment. The raffle entry for PCA members opens on 11 July, with submissions accepted until 15 August. The draw will take place at California's Rennsport Reunion 7 in September. PCA‑member exclusivity remains firm: after the raffle winner, the remaining units will be offered solely to club members in the US and Canada.

2026 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S: More Power, More Driven Wheels, More Money

As reliably as the sun rises and sets, Porsche is fleshing out the 911 lineup. Following last year's facelift, Porsche just revealed the new all-wheel drive "S" variants, Carrera 4S coupe and Cabriolet, plus Targa 4S. The headline? More power and standard equipment than their predecessors, and a healthy price increase, too. Like the rear-drive Carrera S coupe and Cabriolet , the new all-wheel drive models get a 3.0-liter twin-turbo flat-six making 473 horsepower and 390 pound-feet of torque. The power increase is largely thanks to intercoolers from the 911 Turbo, Porsche says, and the horsepower figure matches the old Carrera GTS's, though torque is slightly lower. As with its rear-drive siblings, the only transmission available is an eight-speed PDK dual-clutch. Porsche is, so far, limiting the manual to just the purist-aimed Carrera T and GT3 . Photo by: Porsche Photo by: Porsche The new 4S models also get a standard Sports Exhaust and larger brakes from the old Carrera GTS model. As before, adaptive dampers, a rear limited-slip differential, and 20/21-inch wheels are standard, while sport suspension, rear-wheel steering, the Sport Chrono package, and carbon-ceramic brakes are optional. However, the Targa 4S gets rear-steer standard. Inside, there's more leather trim standard than before, and the rest of the upgrades Porsche gave the 911, including somewhat controversially, a digital gauge cluster. The coupe comes standard as a two-seater now, with 2+2 seating a no-cost option, and standard on the Cabriolet and Targa. Porsche says in the US, around half of all 911 "S" models are all-wheel drive, so these are an important addition to the lineup. And until now, for the face-lifted model, the entry-level all-wheel drive 911 was the hybrid Carrera 4 GTS. So, these cars usefully lower the barrier of entry. Not that they're cheap. Preliminary pricing for the 2026 Carrera 4S coupe is $156,450—over $16,000 more than the 2024 model, though Porsche stresses this is subject to change. There's more standard equipment and performance than before, but still, that's a large gap. The preliminary cost for the Carrera 4S Cabriolet is $169,650 while the Targa 4S is $171,350. Not that Porsche customers will balk at these prices. Demand for new 911s seems to far outstrip supply. More on the 911 Is the 911 Hybrid Still a True Porsche?
