2005 Porsche 911/997 Carrera S
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 997 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 4 S which were announced as 2006 models. The 997 remains a worthy model of one of the most celebrated sportscars ever produced and also received a vast amount of 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”.
Our vendor purchased this 997 10 years ago as a weekend and special occasions car, it has amassed around 10,000 steady miles during his custodianship and has been maintained yearly by well-respected marque specialists, Ninemeister and recently Tech9 during that time, and was serviced by Porsche main dealers for its first eight years. This example is very attractively presented in Midnight Blue with a navy interior, a nice change from the more commonly seen GT Silver or Basalt Black, Midnight Blue is a beautiful, understated colour which really comes alive in the sun. Also fitted with the all-important manual gearbox, this Carrera S has clearly been very well cared for throughout its life and is now ready to be enjoyed by its next custodian. Supplied to auction with an MoT test certificate valid until August 2026 and service book and invoices detailing an excellent maintenance history. Consigned by Fraser Smith
