The true price of the Porsche 911 Turbo
By Autos Editors
When sales begin later this year, the new Porsche 911 Turbo and Turbo S will be among the fastest machines on the road.
Porsche 911 Turbo revealed
At $149,250 for the Turbo and $182,050 for the S, they will also cost thousands more than their immediate predecessors – saying nothing of some worthy, less expensive competitors.
This prompted a consideration of what kind of toys Turbo money could otherwise buy – bearing in mind that a Porsche customer would not cross-shop a Turbo S with, say, seven $25,000 Volkswagen GTIs.

Just a different perspective. Those cars are for the truly wealthy. I'm never buying another new car again, but personally I'd rather have a Cayman S and an extra 115k than a 911 Turbo S. But then, I'm not wealthy.
