Porsche 911 Turbo: Photo Gallery -- The new 2007 Porsche 911 Turbo sat within yards of the Mediterranean’s crashing surf, pinging and humming as it settled down after miles of hard driving. It was tough to pry myself out of the body-hugging leather sport seats and take a rest (not least because they’re actually lower than in the previous model), but a few minutes of repose seemed prudent and the scenery was compelling. Just eight miles away, across the Straight of Gibraltar, lay the coast of Africa. Despite the close proximity, our schedule wouldn’t allow a visit; Porsche lent us the new 911 Turbo for the day to drive around southern Spain and it was overdue back at the hotel.Purists may cringe, but the assistive technology that comes standard on the new 2007 Porsche 911 Turbo goes a long way toward making this one of the greatest sports cars extant. Porsche Traction Management (PTM) ensures that power is split perfectly between the front and rear wheels and also helps to keep you between the white lines. Also included, but somewhat redundant due to PTM’s comprehensive vehicle control, is Porsche Stability Management (PSM), which uses the brakes to prevent oversteer and understeer. Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) allows the driver to select either Normal mode or the I’m-going-to-thrash-this-road Sports mode, the system adjusting the suspension dampers accordingly
