Porsche 996.2 Carrera “40 Jahre 911”

2004 Porsche 911 Carrera 40th Anniversary Edition

The 2004 Porsche 911 Carrera 40th Anniversary Edition is one of the most distinctive versions of the 996-generation 911. Built to celebrate 40 years of the Porsche 911, the Anniversary Edition combined unique styling with meaningful performance upgrades over the standard Carrera. Its naturally aspirated 3.6-liter flat-six produces 345 horsepower and is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, giving this special 996 the engaging, analog character that continues to attract Porsche enthusiasts. Finished in the Anniversary Edition’s signature GT Silver Metallic over Natural Grey Leather, this example presents in the color combination most closely associated with the model. The 40th Anniversary Edition received its own collection of factory equipment and appearance details, including the X51 Powerkit, sport suspension, limited-slip differential, Turbo-style front fascia, unique badging and model-specific interior trim. The build information for this car also confirms the optional Bose High End Sound Package and Natural Grey floor mats. Its original total retail price was $91,475. Showing 60,052 miles, this example has a substantial documented maintenance history with 28 service records reported to CARFAX. Notable recent work includes a clutch and flywheel replacement performed by PA Euros in 2024, along with an oil service, timing-chain tensioner seal replacement and additional inspection work. CARFAX does show an important title-history disclosure: Porsche reacquired the vehicle in October 2004 under applicable state consumer warranty laws or for customer satisfaction due to wiring-harness concerns, and subsequent titles carry a Manufacturer Buyback or Lemon designation. CARFAX otherwise reports no accidents or damage, no structural damage, no total loss, no airbag deployment and no odometer rollback.
