High-strength steel plates

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2005 Porsche 911, 2004 Porsche 911, 2003 Porsche 911, 2002 Porsche 911, and 2001 Porsche 911. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Body parts of high-strength steel contribute to better protection of the passenger compartment and thus increase protection of the passengers. In addition to improved crash safety, these parts also have a positive influence on fatigue strength. In terms of crash behaviour, body parts made from high-strength sheet steel are characterised by their higher energy absorption. But this also means that higher reshaping force must be applied in reshaping work.

NOTE: Only "Original Porsche parts" must be used for repair work!
