The cheapest you can get a new 911 for is $82,100 for the base Carrera, which comes with a new, 350-horsepower, 3.4-liter boxer engine that provides five more hp than the old 3.6-liter . Next up is the $96,400 Carrera S that brings 400 hp via its 3.8-liter flat-six. These prices don't include the destination charge and are a big increase over the 997.

"Whether this will be a customer's first or just their latest Porsche 911, it's going to be the most invigorating ownership experience yet," said Detlev von Platen, President and CEO of Porsche Cars North America. "The 911 Carrera and Carrera S are the ultimate choices for drivers who want the fun and excitement of a true benchmark-setting sports car week in and week out, not just for show or play during the weekends."
