The 997 was initially available from July 2004 in two guises, Carrera and Carrera S, both rear-wheel drive only with identical bodywork. The base Carrera stuck with the well established 3.6-litre power unit producing 325bhp, however the Carrera S had useful extra power - some 355bhp - thanks to a larger displacement engine (3.8-litres). Other general 997 enhancements included better suspension, reduced drag-coefficient, a more appealing interior and extra room for passengers. Introduced in 2005, the Carrera 4S was broadly similar but was a tad wider (44mm) to accommodate the four-wheel drive system and wider wheels. The car presented here is a 2005 Porsche 911 (997.1) 3.8-litre Carrera S specified with the drivers’ choice of the manual 6-speed (G97/01) gearbox (which was reinforced by Porsche for the ‘S’ model) and is finished in Basalt Black Metallic with a black hood and interior. It’s offered from long term ownership, some 12 years, with just one previous recorded keeper and presents superbly, benefitting from a recent comprehensive check over and detail to ensure that it is offered looking at its very best. It was specified from new with numerous additions to standard such as electronic damper control and stability management, sports seats finished in hide, a multi- function steering wheel, top-tint screen and DVD navigation amongst others, all accompanied by a comprehensive service history. Offered at a very sensible and affordable guide giving the opportunity for Porsche ownership at an approachable level. Your early inspection is welcomed and encouraged. Porsche 911 (997.1) 3.8-litre Carrera S with the desirable manual 6-speed gearbox, offered from 12 years of ownership and looking good in Black Metallic. More Details Lot 281 Bid On Lot 281
