The base Turbo offers 540 horsepower and starts at $160,195, while the Turbo S packs 580 horsepower and demands an extra $28,900. Adding a folding fabric top to either model will drive the cost of entry up by $12,300, regardless of o... Read more

A WORTHY TESTIMONIAL FOR A GREAT SERVICE

Hope this meets you well?

My name is Didi Awosika. I work with Viacom International Media Networks Africa, as Senior Commercial Manager for West Africa.

Yesterday (23/10/15) at about 12:45pm, I was driving my Black Porsche Carrera 4s on 3rd Mainland Bridge at high speed, headed towards Oworonsoki, when suddenly the right rear Tyre burst, putting the car in an uncontrollable position, which left me in shock.
