Here are a few words we never thought we'd see in the same phrase: Mansory has worked its magic again. But it has, as after that Land Rover Defender that we certainly liked, the (controversial) tuner's latest project revolves around the Porsche 911 Turbo and Turbo S.
There is certainly nothing controversial about this build, as it follows the usual recipe of featuring several add-ons on the outside that enhance its appeal and a healthy power boost for even quicker off-the-line sprints.

In the looks department, this Porsche 911 Turbo S features Mansory's soft kit. It includes a new front hood made of carbon fiber, several bumper add-ons, including a chin spoiler with side blades, side skirt attachments, and new air vent surrounds on the rear fenders.

Other stuff also came from the aftermarket world and bears the tuner's signature. Here, we can certainly mention the new side mirror casings, the ginormous wing at the back, various rear bumper add-ons, and a new diffuser with a much more aggressive styling.

The car also has a quad exhaust setup and rides on new 21-inch front and 22-inch rear alloys. The forged wheels, which are part of the FV.5C series, can be ordered with or without center locking. And as you can probably assume, Mansory's components fit the Coupe and the Convertible versions of the 911 Turbo and 911 Turbo S from the 992 generation.

A look inside would've been nice, but we can see through the windows that the dominating hue is blue. It decorates the seats, door cards, and likely other parts of the interior. We don't know if Mansory signed it, but if it did, then it would've released a few clear pictures of the cabin.

Don't go anywhere yet, as we haven't told you about the added power. This Porsche 911 Turbo S is much punchier than the stock one, with 900 metric horses (887 bhp/662 kW) and 1,050 Nm (774 lb-ft) of torque produced by the engine. An untouched example has 650 ps (641 hp/478 kW) and 800 Nm (590 lb-ft) on tap produced by its twin-turbo 3.8-liter flat-six lump and delivered to both axles via the eight-speed PDK.

Without anyone messing around with its internals, the 911 Turbo S needs 2.7 seconds to 100 kph (62 mph). Mansory's proposal, however, is even faster than that, as the sprint is said to take only 2.5 seconds. The tuner claims that the top speed has increased to 340 kph (211 mph) from 330 kph (205 mph).

There's no word about the pictured supercar being on sale, so it was probably commissioned by one of Mansory's clients. Meanwhile, we will remind you that the 911 Turbo S starts from $230,400 before destination in the United States, and the Cabriolet from $243,200.
