If you want a seat at any car-talk table, you must be able to reference the 911 Turbo, the most powerful strain of cars in the 911 line, which is the internal designation for the seventh-generation Porsche 911 sports car. The turbos are the granddaddies of the Porsche 911 family, madly desired since their introduction in 1974. They came close on the heels of BMW’s 2002 Turbo, which was the first street-legal sports car with then-newfangled turbocharging technology. The 911 Turbos have been setting the pace ever since. The 911 T S Cabriolet is noticeably more comfortable to drive on a daily basis under disparate conditions than many of its high-priced competitors. That’s not solely thanks to its four drive modes or the optional lift package that allows for an additional 1.5 inches of clearance, although these do much to smooth what might otherwise be anxious nerves at driving such a high-performing car on a daily basis.
