1970 911S Review
After 40 years and at least 5 moves, a box with some old Road and Track magazines still survived. Inside the March 1970 issue, I found this review of the 1970 911S. Thought you all might like to take a look at it.
   I have a better quality scan of the article in .pdf if anyone is interested, private message me. |

An S on the drag strip. Makes no sense. It makes all of its power at the high end of the band and same with torque. E would actually take an S in the qtr. Guess it was more of a publicity shot than anything.

You have to love the quote from the article that says: "Perhaps the little factory in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen might be cranking out too many cars now to be able to make them like they used to."
1970, if they only knew! |

I've got the Road and Track special compilation of '70s Porsche Road Tests- 911, 914, 917, 908. It has that article in it.

by the looks of the car 'in tilt' some one sent a car with the wrong badge to be tested. shouldnt it have an 's' front bumper? maybe a 't' with an 's' badge...?
