New Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet for 2004 Model Year

North America is about to get a taste of the new Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet, announced Porsche Cars North America recently. The new 2004 model features a 3.6-L 6-cylinder engine that reaches an amazing maximum speed of 278 km/h (174 mph), equaling the current 911 Carrera 4S coupe. What's more 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) takes mere 5.3 seconds, only two tenths of a second shy of its hard top sibling. This is particularly stirring since it has an additional 70 kg (154 lbs) in curb weight.
