2014 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S 5 Million Facebook Fans Edition
Porsche
has never been bashful about being a proponent of social media as a way
of communicating with its fans. Time and again, the German automaker
has taken to its Facebook and Twitter pages to get input from its fans.
There
were even a couple of times in the past where Porsche built specific
special edition models for its Facebook fans, including the Cayman S Facebook Edition and the 911 GT3 R Hybrid Facebook Edition.
Back
in February, Porsche took it up a notch when it invited its five
million fans on Facebook an opportunity to customize a unique Porsche 911 Carrera 4S.
After
five months of hearing the fans’ replies, Porsche has finally unveiled
the vehicle and appropriately enough, has christened it as the 2014
Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Facebook Edition.
Featuring
Porsche’s "Sport" exterior package for the 911 Carrera 4S, the one-off
sports car received a fancy Aqua Blue finish to go with a multitude of
new aerodynamic and performance components, including a new double rear
wing, a new sports exhaust system, PASM sports suspension, privacy
glazing and wheel spacers. Spicing up the package is a set of 20-inch
white Carrera S wheels.
Inside, personalized touches
alluding to its builders were prevalently displayed, highlighted by
custom inner-door sills with the phrase ’‘Personally built by 5 Million
Porsche Fans’ engraved on it with matching blue illumination.
A
subtle performance tweak was also given to the 911 Carrera 4S Facebook
Edition’s 3.8-liter, horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine. Whith
these modifications in tow, the sports car’s output now generates 430
horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque to go with a sprint time from 0
to 60 mph in just 3.9 seconds to go with a top speed of 186 mph.
