The Porsche 911 Carrera S gets Porsche's Dynamic LED light system which ensures that there is no problem in getting the brightness required while racing on the highways in the night and the lights are there with a dual projector setup instead of having a single projector that usually normal cars for everyday driving have as equipment on top models. The front looks absolutely very sportier and has the Porsche DNA from the other cars that are sportier like this beast. If the headlamps of the car get really very dirty then the 911 Carrera S has that option to clean them for better visibility and not only the headlamps help in better visibility but there were also LED DRLs on the offer with the car. The performance was always a priority for Porsche cars and for better air intake there are also active air intake flaps on the offer.

Heating is also a very common issue and for heating prevention purposes there are heat glazing glasses that are used so that heat can be prevented inside the cabin of the car.

The fact cannot be ignored that Porsche cars do not offer performance as Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet is paired to a 3 litre 6 cylinder bi-turbo petrol engine that generates 414 BHP of power and 500 NM of torque. This engine is paired to Porsche's 7-speed PDK automatic transmission however this was a 2017 model but when we compare it with BS6 911 Carrera S Cabriolet than it has gained performance. There is also a sports Chrono package that is very helpful for better performance in the car. One thing that every enthusiast would ask is about the top speed of the car and the answer to those enthusiasts is that the top speed of Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet is 304 Km/h. The Suspension of the car comes with anti-roll bars to prevent body roll and can be adjusted through Porsche's active suspension management system according to driving conditions. If a person wants to get more from his or car then the Mercedes AMG GTS would be also a great option in a pre-owned car market as it has a bigger capacity engine that will have more power and torque and is paired to 7 Speed speedshift AMG gearbox for better performance when it is compared to the Carrera S Cabriolet.

Price

The Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet in BS6 era costs nearly 2.30 crores but in the pre-owned car market, this can go cheaper till 1.25 crores and would be perfect if a person wants a sportier convertible with performance however Mercedes AMG GTS 2016 model in a pre-owned car market can also be a great alternative if a person believes in more performance.
