Test drive Porsche 911 Carrera Targa 4S: white element

Driving a Porsche 911 Carrera Targa 4S on the snowy Silvreta road, more than 30 years after the end of the race: it's called an extreme winter sport.

When we picked up the crisp white Porsche Targa, the only idea that came to our mind was to tackle the tricky route with a lot of skid, making the back of the 911 dance its craziest dance. Let's go to places!

The car climbs steadily upward in giant white clouds, the snow rises so high that it falls on the glass roof, and the rear is steered in a controlled manner at every turn, almost entirely controlled by the skillful use of the accelerator pedal.

An experience not to be forgotten

The Carrera stands up to the test on a snowy road, the steering and suspension are helpful, but the car shows no signs of nervousness. A wild turn of the rudder in the opposite direction to the trajectory of the road leads to takeoff into the cliff around the asphalt, and not to stabilize the four-wheeled athlete. The biggest climb begins ... The adrenaline and endorphins in the driver's head reach unearthly proportions, the rear drift in corners becomes more extreme, and the exit from each serpentine has to be done with more and more gas. The Impact Porsche is being exported and the chances of being on the verge of seeing a rear license plate increase.

The 911 4S may not be a figure skating champion, but the pirouettes are sure to be successful. And this, of course, does not only apply to Porsche sports cars: to a certain extent, you can play with the laws of physics, but not overstep them. So, in addition to some cool brains, we needed to find time for a little break. When the glass roof opens, the pilot and co-pilot are blown away by the fresh but icy mountain air, and the cooling down of passions lasts much shorter than expected - quickly comes to the conclusion that even more indescribable things await him during the descent from the mountain. experiences. Downhill, the ESP system increasingly has to tighten up the 911's rear, as well as correct for the person behind the wheel being too bold. Every corner is driven to the limit of physics with a precision that is hard to find in many other automotive industries. We are approaching the end of our snow experience, which will remain in our memory for a long time. I hope we managed to convey to you at least part of the magic of our unforgettable adventure...
