Porsche 997 Carrera 4S

A California car since new, the car was delivered to Porsche of South Bay in Los Angeles. The car remained with the first owner in Los Angeles until June of 2012, showing 8,000 miles. The car was then sold to its second owner, a San Diego-based enthusiast who kept the car until 2017. The car was maintained by Porsche of San Diego during this time and was sold to its third and most recent owner showing 24,000 miles. Over the past 6 years, the car has lived with a CPR client in Oceanside California being driven sparingly and regularly maintained by All German Auto.

This 997 C4S remains completely stock and unaltered. All of the car’s exterior paint is original, and the car has never been damaged outside of small surface scratches which have been rectified with a paint correction.

Upon arrival at CPR Classic, this 997 underwent a thorough evaluation, preparation, and detail. The car arrived wearing its original clear bra which we removed due to age. Removing the original bra revealed flawless original paint on the front end, which we then thoroughly cleaned and paint corrected. We also removed the original rock guards from the quarter panels due to age. New quarter panel rock guards are being installed, and CPR can arrange for a new clear bra installation before delivery if the new owner would prefer it.

The Porsche 997 is swiftly entering modern classic territory within the Porsche market. The 997 marked the end of many eras for Porsche. The small footprint of the 997 was abandoned for the more GT-focused 991, and with the 991 came the loss of hydraulic steering which provides wonderful feedback and an engaging sensation that the 997 was the last to capture. Sure, the newer cars are faster, but 997’s are beginning to rise in value and become more sought after, and we only expect this to continue.

This 997 Carrera 4S cabriolet offers a wonderful opportunity to enter a fully sorted, low mileage 911 that is ready for many worry-free miles to come. If you are in the market for a 911 that you can put the top down with and go for everything from spirited back canyon drives to a dinner date with your partner, this is a must-consider 911.
