Porsche Club of America reviews the rare Porsche 911 Carrera GTS Cabriolet America Edition, a limited-run version of the GTS that combines enhanced performance with exclusive styling. Inspired by the classic 356 America Roadster, it features Azure Blue paint, white RS Spyder-style wheels with red pinstripes, and Guards Red and Pebble Gray interior accents. All America Editions come with rear-wheel drive and a seven-speed manual transmission.
Powered by a 473-hp twin-turbo flat-six, the car delivers strong acceleration and plenty of torque, with a sporty exhaust note that becomes more pronounced with the top up. The manual gearbox is smooth and easy to use, and the car’s handling feels balanced, with noticeable rear-engine dynamics and responsive steering.
Despite its rarity and showpiece looks, the America Edition remains approachable and usable. It’s comfortable enough for road trips and practical enough for daily driving, though its exclusivity may make owners cautious. The reviewer praises its engaging driving experience, strong sound, and open-top enjoyment, making it both a fun driver’s car and a standout at car shows.
