Is it a mere coincidence that on the Fourth of July Porsche unveils its 911 Carrera 4 and Carrera 4S Cabriolets? I
believe it’s a conspiracy to promote the number 4 above all other single digits, especially number 1 because it always
comes in first for everything.
Lots of stuff to like in the new Carrera 4 convertibles, like the 325-hp 3.6L flat-six in the non-S model and the
large and lovely 3.8L making 355-hp in the S. New for 2006 is the availability of the Porsche Active Suspension
Management system, which is able to continually adjust the level of damping force at each wheel according to sensor
inputs. Prices will start at $87K for the Carrera 4 Cabriolet and $97K for the Carrera 4S Cabriolet when they’re both
made available in North America in November… just in time for winter.
