Description
Riviera Sports & Prestige are delighted to present this exceptional 2006 Porsche 911 (997.1) Carrera S Coupe, a superb example of one of the most sought-after modern-era 911s. Finished in special colour GT Silver and paired with a black leather interior, this car embodies a timeless and understated colour combination that suits the 997’s classic lines perfectly.
At the heart of this 911 Carrera S lies the iconic 3.8-litre naturally aspirated flat-six engine, producing 350 horsepower and paired with the increasingly desirable manual transmission. This analogue drivetrain delivers a truly engaging driving experience, propelling the car from 0–62 mph in just 4.8 seconds and offering the purity and involvement that enthusiasts continue to seek. As values increasingly favour well-specified manual examples, this car represents a particularly appealing opportunity.
The specification is both tasteful and desirable, enhancing the driving experience without detracting from the car’s purity. Highlights include 19-inch Carrera S “lobster claw” alloy wheels, wheel centres with full-colour Porsche crests, Parking System, PCM Navigation Module, and the excellent BOSE sound system. Finishing touches such as the chrome-plated stainless steel tailpipes add subtle visual presence, while a prefix-style personalised registration, included with the car, further complements its timeless character.
With great mileage for its age and extensive service history, this Carrera S has clearly been maintained with care, with no expense spared throughout its ownership. The condition reflects this attention to detail, with the car presented in immaculate order, both cosmetically and mechanically, making it an outstanding example of the model.
Importantly, this car is offered at a fantastic price point for a manual, naturally aspirated Porsche 911, presenting a rare opportunity to acquire an increasingly desirable specification that continues to appeal to both driving enthusiasts and collectors alike. Combining a naturally aspirated engine, manual gearbox, classic specification, excellent provenance, and strong value, this 997.1 Carrera S stands out as a highly compelling modern classic.
