Porsche 997.2 Turbo

The vehicle in detail

Chassis No. WP0ZZZ99ZAS770460

Today’s social media landscape is awash with 992-era Exclusive builds, each seemingly more impressive than the last and showcasing the immense talents of those artisans in Stuttgart. Yet it wasn’t always this way. While those in the Sonderwunsch, and later Exclusive Departments, have always been capable of creating special cars, the possibilities were not widely known, making Exclusive Manufaktur builds such as this 997.2-generation 911 Turbo Cabriolet that much more special.

Originally ordered for the Swiss market, this Turbo Cabriolet features an incredible 25 catalog options. The list of desirable items fitted to the optional Cream White Turbo includes RS Spyder center-lock wheels, Makassar Package, Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB), Aluminum Hard Top, Sport Chrono Package Plus, seven-speed PDK transmission, and Natural Leather in Carrera Red. For many, this would be the build of a lifetime, yet the individual who ordered this example saw fit to add an additional 37 options fitted by the Exclusive Manufaktur Department that included 15 interior components in Carrera Red leather and exterior plastic components like its mirror attachments, front air intakes, side skirts, spoiler lip, and rear apron painted in Cream White. A full accounting of the extraordinary options list from its VIN Analytics Report is on file and available for review.

A build of this depth from 15 years ago is unlikely to be bested; perhaps even more impressive is its low odometer reading—just 302 kilometers at the time of cataloging. Additional highlights include a new service book, a fresh service by Porsche Service Zentrum Gstaad, and inspection at the traffic center (MFK / expertise). This highly preserved 911 Turbo Cabriolet should therefore be a near-lock to be included in the world’s finest Porsche collections focused on performance, rarity, and preservation.
