Description

The Porsche 997 is widely regarded as one of the last truly pure 911s. Compact, mechanical and built around driving feel, without unnecessary electronics. A car that does exactly what you expect it to do, and perhaps for that reason, one that is increasingly sought after today. Within this generation, the Targa 4S remains one of the most underrated variants. With its all-wheel drive, 3.8 litre naturally aspirated flat-six and distinctive glass roof, it occupies a unique position in the range. It is a car you can use daily with ease, yet one that makes every drive feel special.

This particular example was delivered new on March 31st, 2008 in France and has had only 3 owners since. The history is fully known and correctly documented, with maintenance consistently carried out within the official Porsche network. The service book is present and properly stamped, along with the complete on-board documentation. Everything is exactly as it should be.

What immediately sets this car apart is its Paint to Sample finish in Nordic Gold Metallic (LM2Z). A colour ordered outside the standard range at the time and also featured in official Porsche Targa 4S brochures. In reality, this shade stands out even more, warm, elegant and perfectly suited to the lines of the 997. The car still retains approximately 95% of its original paint, which is a significant advantage today. Only the front trunk lid has been repainted due to stone chips. Otherwise, this is a very honest and well-preserved example.

In terms of specification, this Targa 4S is exactly how you want it. No unnecessary options, just the right ones to enhance the driving experience: Sport exhaust (XLF), short shifter (XCZ), 19-inch Sport Design wheels (407), Park Assist (635), cruise control (454), heated seats left and right (342), PCM navigation with phone module (666 / 672), auto-dimming mirrors with rain sensor (P12) and rear wiper (425).

On the road, the car delivers exactly what you expect from a 997. Direct, stable and reliable, with that characteristic driving feel that is becoming increasingly rare. The combination of all-wheel drive and a naturally aspirated engine offers confidence and usability in every situation, without losing its character.

This is a very clean and correct Porsche 997 Targa 4S, with a known history, strong specification and a rare appearance thanks to its Paint to Sample colour. A modern classic that is right in every aspect and ready to be enjoyed without compromise.
