Limited-edition Porsche 911 Turbo S

Porsche has rebranded its in-house modification workshop, which is now known as Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur, and its first product is the 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series, limited to 500 units.

The factory-tweaked coupe has been given 27bhp more power for a total of 607bhp, various carbon components, special Golden Yellow Metallic paintwork and a matching cabin colour scheme. Buyers can also opt for a Porsche Design chronograph watch and a luggage set with the same design theme as the car.

At the same time, two new exhibitions have been introduced: Under The Skin, which reveals the company's creative and technical developments through the years; and Infinite Red, which features the most significant road cars and racing machines made by Ferrari in the past 70 years.
