The New 2015 911 Carerra GTS
Forbes recently published a review and s w e e t series of photos of the new 2015 GTS. There are several variants of the GTS available, from a "base" Carerra S GTS loaded up with extra features all the way up to the track-inspired GT3, which has been modified to be street legal. With the GTS models, you get extras like Porsche Sport Exhaust, the Sport Chrono Package, bi-xenon headlights with a smoked lens, and Porsche Active Suspension Management. The interior features a unique combination of fine leather and Alcantara-- the latter is most easily described as a synthetic suede used in race cars because of its superior grip and durability-- and it's really plush to boot; I've touched it. However, stick lovers be warned: the newest GT3 street version comes with PDK only, and is not available with a manual transmission, the lack of which no doubt will make Porsche purists unhappy. Luckily you can still get the other 911 Carerra GTS models in a stick or PDK.
