Porsche is reportedly preparing a new model of middle-engined V8 with supercharger and prepared to fill slots limited segment of the model 918 Spyder and above segment 911.The model is estimated named 961 was also prepared to withstand this onslaught of 458 Italian Ferrari and McLaren MP4-12C in the supercar segment.
The price range will be set by Porsche is £ 170,000 (USD 241.7 million).
This 961 model code had previously been used on racing cars in 1986 and based on Porsche 959. At that time, 961 is a racing car group B and only made 1 unit just before the Group B supercars racing competition was abolished.
Now, 961 will be present not as a race car again and certainly not prepared on the basis of the old 959. Estimates he will have a body design similar to the 918 and also borrows some design elements of other Porsche models. Including those mentioned is like the Cayman coupe roofline with a few lines of the body design 911.
Most likely spoiler model 961 also has automatic pop-ups located behind the engine is in the middle.
In the event that brings sports model with a light weight, no need to doubt anymore that Porsche is one of the leading product in this sector
Another thing is the 961 will appear in the form coupe and roofed hardtop, and allegedly will adopt a powerful engine of about 600 dk. Strong candidates, the machine unit which would be expected to power 961 is the engine of the Porsche Panamera and Cayenne Turbo V8 namely a capacity of 4800 cc Turbo twin-turbo V8.
But there might also be applied to other machines such as RSR racing 918's engine with a smaller capacity ie 3400 cc V8.
Porsche indicates this model will be ready for the market to target in 2013, almost in unison with the market launch of the 918 Spyder.
