Description
If fast road or track work is your thing look no further than this 997.1 base Carrera. The 997.1 base Carrera weighs in at 1395 kgs, the identical weight of the GT3 and this particular car has further options to argue its case:
- No sunroof (a saving of 13kgs approximately)
- 6-speed manual transmission
- Sports exhaust
- Carrera Sport Classic Wheels with 19" N-rated Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2's
- Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) - This is a rare and expensive option on the base Carrera
- Litronic Lights
- Park Assist
- Rear wash/wipe
- Bose sound system
- K&N Panel Air filter
