Overview

The 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe is a midsize coupe offered in two trims, starting off at a base MSRP of $84,300. For that price, it mainly competes with the Mercedes Benz C63 AMG Coupe, and the Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport Coupe. Available in two trims, the 911 Carrera Coupe offers a single powertrain. It is a 3.4L Flat-6 engine making 350 horsepower and 287 lb-ft of torque. However, there is a choice between a 7-speed manual transmission and a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The 911 Carrera Coupe reaches 60 mph from zero in 4.4 seconds with the manual transmission, which gets pumped up to 3.8 seconds with the automatic transmission. Depending on the drivetrain, the 911 Carrera Coupe can manage a combined fuel economy of between 22 and 23 mpg. While we're on the topic of choices, the 14 striking colors the 911 Carrera Coupe comes in really pull you towards itself.

Buying Advice

We recommend the base Carrera bundled with the available Premium Package Plus and the Bose Audio package to further enhance your ride experience. However, if you drive in wet conditions, the Carerra 4 is just what you need because of its standard AWD.
