"The 996 model of the 911 Porsche was replaced by the 997 in 2005. The new model shares less than a third of its parts with the outgoing 996 but is technically similar. At the launch two versions were introduced. They were the Carrera and the more powerful and better equipped Carrera S. This was the first time since 1977 that the 911 was offered in two power versions. The specification differences included larger and more powerful brakes with red calipers, lowered suspension featuring the ‘Porsche Active Suspension Management’ system, Xenon headlights and a sports steering wheel.Presented in Seal Grey, this 997 Cabriolet was originally registered in the United States and has spent most of its life in the dry state of Arizona. The exterior colour is complemented by the grey leather trim with a black hood and black painted alloy wheels. We are informed by the vendor that this three-owner example has been well maintained and regularly serviced with a recent oil change, brake pads and front track rods ends fitted, and the oil removed is also regularly tested with no evidence of metal particles. Boasting an uprated Bluetooth touch screen navigation and entertainment system, we are also informed the electrical systems are all functioning correctly including the electric soft top for the summer days. This is an attractively priced and handsome 911 offered without reserve, viewing is recommended so not to miss out on what could be great introduction into Porsche ownership.
