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.
