Welcome Back: 2010 Porsche 911 Sport Classic

Porsche 911's Best Hits Selection




Porsche's 911 Sport Classic served as the "Greatest Hits" version of the legendary 911 because the exterior has bits from famous 911 models from the past and present. Cosmetic treatments to this "Best Hits Selection" 911 start at the nose with a revised fascia and take off from there. The roof panel receives a double-bubble treatment: a pair of domes above the driver and passenger with a channel down the middle. Behind the Sport Classic, the ducktail spoiler from the legendary the Carrera RS 2.7 makes its first appearance on a modern 911 and is flanked by even wider rear fenders to enclose the SC's extended track.

The interior is finished in Espresso Nature natural leather and the use of new materials to the marque, including woven leather/yarn seat panels.

The 911 Sport Classic is priced at €169,300 ($240,702 USD), twice more than the normal Carrera S and they only made 250 of them, which was already sold out fast.



James May drove this one in Series 15 Episode 2 of Top Gear alongside the Boxster Spyder.
