Description

" The sixth generation of the Porsche 911 was dubbed the 997 and introduced in 2005. It retained the previous model’s basic profile but drew on the 993 for detailing. In addition, the new headlights reverted to the original bug-eye design. The interior was similarly revised, with strong links to the earlier 911 interiors while at the same time looking fresh and modern. Initially, two versions of the 977 were introduced, the rear-wheel-drive Carrera and Carrera S. In late 2005 Porsche introduced the four-wheel drive versions of the 997, the Carrera 4 and Carrera 4S which were announced as 2006 models. The 997 remain a worthy model of one of the most celebrated sports cars ever produced and also received mostly positive reviews from the worldwide motoring press, with Jeremy Clarkson, a known detractor of Porsche cars, noting that the 997 will make love to your fingertips and stir your soul.
This very good example is presented in, probably the best colour combination of Atlas Grey with a black leather interior and a black electrically operated hood. This car has a full service history from new, with the last service being carried out in 2022. Its 3.8 litre engine is mated to a six-speed manual gearbox which is rare and desirable. Great performance and stunning looks combined, make this model still the one to have.
