Special Aerokit

Having an issue with a little too much lift on your 911 Turbo Coupe? Consider that problem solved with the new Aerokit by Porsche for the Porsche 911 Turbo Coupé.

The Aerokit consists of a new front lip and rear spoiler, thoroughly tested in wind tunnels, and will blend perfectly with the 490 hp coupe. The drag coefficient remains 0.31 while reducing said lift coefficients on the front and rear axle at high speeds.

The Aerokit costs 4,500 Euro when you order it while buying a new 911 Turbo Coupe, or 4,100 Euro if it is to be retrofitted. Prices are ex-VAT, if bought separately excluding painting and assembly and available as of today.

New Aerokit for the Porsche 911 Turbo Coupé

Dr. Ing. h. c. F. Porsche AG, Stuttgart, has developed a special Aerokit for the 911 Turbo Coupé. It includes a front spoiler lip and an entirely new engine cover design with fixed aerofoil.

The characteristic front lip and the distinctive rear spoiler lend the typical turbo silhouette an even more dynamic appearance. The Porsche development center engineers in Weissach attached the greatest possible importance to aerodynamic functionality. The most important objective among the components refined in the wind tunnel was to improve the handling characteristics, given an unchanged drag coefficient of 0.31 compared with the production version.

This ensures that the Aerokit’s optimized streamlining blends ideally with the 490 PS high performance Coupé’s harmonious overall design and enabled further reductions of the lift coefficients on the front and rear axles. This ensures an even more stable drive at high speed.

The aerodynamically coordinated front and rear components may only be fitted together. Compared with the standard 900 Turbo, the door sill trim and the rear skirt are painted in body color as well as the Aerokit’s add-on parts.

The Aerokit costs 4,500 euros (excluding VAT) when ordered at the same time as purchasing a new vehicle from Porsche Exclusive in Germany. If the parts are retrofitted, they can be purchased from Porsche Tequipment at a cost of 4,100 euros (excluding painting and assembly as well as VAT). The Aerokit is available with immediate effect worldwide.
