The Porsche 991.1 Carrera GTS Cabriolet blends performance and luxury into a focused, road-ready package. Powered by a 430-hp naturally aspirated flat-six, it delivers strong acceleration and an engaging soundtrack, enhanced by the standard sport exhaust. PASM adaptive suspension and a ride height lowered by about 10 mm give the car sharper responses without sacrificing comfort, while Sport Chrono with Sport Plus quickens throttle and transmission behavior for more aggressive driving.

On the road, the GTS Cabriolet feels planted and balanced, combining the wide-body stance of the all-wheel-drive Carrera models with precise handling and excellent grip. The chassis remains composed through corners, and the added performance hardware makes the car feel more purposeful than a standard Carrera.

Inside, Alcantara-trimmed sport seats and leather accents create a sporty yet upscale environment, while standard features like bi-xenon headlights with PDLS add value. Visually, the GTS stands apart with black trim, center-lock wheels, and a wider track, giving it a more aggressive presence. The result is an open-top 911 that mixes everyday usability with focused performance.
