Exhaust system.

The exhaust system of the 911 models
has been redesigned – acoustics included.
The stainless steel exhaust system
comprises two distinctive and independent
exhaust tracts. A selectable twin-tube
sports exhaust system featuring distinc-

is available as an option. Activated by
a button, it produces an even more
intensive sports car sound.
