When searching for a vehicle that offers a balance of speed, efficiency and performance, drivers in the greater Chapel Hill area can begin by checking out the new Porsche line-up. With the upcoming addition of the Porsche 960, the automaker is perhaps going one step further to offer power at its finest.
This supercar, which has received the nickname Fefi for "Ferrari Fighter" because of its similarities to the Italian automaker, has been rumored to feature a few different engine options. The most recent possibility is a 3.9-liter, quad-turbo flat-eight engine that would allow the vehicle to crank out 650 horsepower. With this kind of speed when taking to the open road, you are bound to attract some serious attention.
In turns of appearance, the new supercar will be composed of a variety of materials that include aluminum, steel, carbon fiber, titanium and magnesium. With a weight of 3,000-pounds and its enhanced engine, the Porche 960 could be able to go from zero to sixty miles per hour in just 2.5 seconds. While none of these details have been confirmed, we will be keeping a close watch for the release of more information about the production model.
