Introduced in 1966 the 911S gave a real performance boost to the range. Powered by a higher compression version of the standard 1991cc engine, the 911S developed a healthy 160bhp. Later models of the 911S used fuel injection to produce up to 180bhp.

Dynamically the 911S also featured ventilated discs, wider wheels (those famous silver and black 5 spoke alloys) and of coarse wider, flared wheel arches which add an aggressive edge to the 911 shape. A real drivers car, the 911 remained in production until 1971.
