PORSCHE’S 911 has long been held up as the pinnacle of motoring perfection for its sharp handling, plush interior and, now in its current guise, the added efficiency and pull of a turbocharged engine.

The GTS badge however, represents the final step up from the base Carrera and S variants before the track-honed GT3 – making it arguably the ultimate road-going 911.

More power from the force-fed flat six, a lower ride height, wider body and track, and bigger brakes round out the mechanical upgrades, but the price also rises for the privilege of the GTS badge.

Porsche also reckons they are struggling to hold them in stock too, with every GTS they are able to get their hands on selling faster than an upshift of a dual-clutch PDK transmission.

Is the Porsche 911 GTS as good as it gets on the road?
