Porsche’s 911 Turbo S Spreads Its Gold-Plated Wings as the 911 Exclusive

The Porsche 911 Turbo S offers supercar-humbling acceleration and incredible top-end performance for under $200,000. However, until the next 911 GT2 RS breaks cover with what we expect to be well over 600 horsepower, Porsche enthusiasts can only graduate from the 911 Turbo S to the sold-out, $845K Porsche 918 Spyder.

Fortunately, Porsche now has a remedy. The 911 Turbo S Exclusive will bring more power, unique styling, and a loftier price point to satisfy those that want more of, well, everything. Specifically, the Exclusive Series will increase power to 607 horses (up 27 over the Turbo S) and drop 0 to 124 mph acceleration by 0.3 seconds, to 9.6 seconds. 0-60 is still quoted at 2.8 seconds, but we’d wager the right conditions could knock a tenth of a second off that. Same goes for the top speed of 205 mph.

Apart from the additional power, the 911 Turbo S Exclusive gets a golden-yellow metallic paint, center-locking 20-inch wheels in black and gold, black and gold carbon ceramic brakes, a larger carbon fiber rear wing, a carbon fiber roof and trunk, dual black exhaust tips, and a redesigned front fascia.

Inside, gold accents are sprinkled throughout the cabin, copper thread is woven into the carbon fiber treatments, and 911 Exclusive badging adorns both doorsills. Porsche has also designed a watch and luggage package to accompany the vehicle. The five-piece luggage set will retail for $6,324 and the watch has yet to be priced.

By the time Porsche’s “Exclusive Manufaktur” is finished with the 911 Turbo S, a once-reticent supercar has been fully extracted from its shell.

Only 500 Porsche 911 Turbo S Exclusives will be built worldwide, each at a starting price of $257,500. Porsche is currently taking orders, so if you gotta have that gold, raise your wallets now!

Get ready for the new Harley-Davidson Springer, a small-displacement motorcycle in development since 2021. The Springer is one of two less expensive motorcycles that Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Company intends to introduce in 2026. The iconic motorcycle company believes the bikes will attract new customers to the brand at a time when the industry as a whole has seen new motorcycle sales numbers drop.

Harley-Davidson CEO Jochen Zeitz spoke about the Springer, a new entry-level cruiser, and other developments and plans during a 2025 Q2 earnings presentation to investors on July 30, 2025.
Why Harley-Davidson wants to sell a smaller bike
Harley-Davidson sales have been down 15% year-over-year in 2025. Zeitz spoke about the relative performance of various platforms, including tough times for high-priced large and loaded touring bikes. The newly refreshed Softail Harleys have sold relatively well, as have the company's RevMax Adventure Touring and Sportster models.

Experience the 2025 Cadillac Escalade: luxury like a private jet on the road
You get sky-high levels of luxury in the 2025 Escalade

Private jets may be the ultimate aspirational mode of transport. You’re usually looking at spending tens of millions of dollars to buy one, then tens of thousands every time you actually go anywhere with it. But aspirations are a bit like stepping stones, and you can get a taste of that “private jet” experience in the 2025 Cadillac Escalade.

The inside features a lot of leather and wood, which you’ll also find cladding the interior of many a luxury aircraft. The ride is also famously smooth, with the little “turbulence” you may experience requiring a particularly aggressive pothole or something similar. Surprisingly, the more time you spend with the Cadillac, the more private jet-like it becomes.
