Porsche 997 Carrera
Highlights
- Factory X51 Package
- Solid black (non-metallic)—a rare and sought-after color
- Low mileage - Serviced
X51! The option everyone is looking for today, and that almost no one checked back then. Priced at around €6,200 when new, the factory power upgrade (WLS) is not a remap: it’s a mechanical package assembled in Zuffenhausen, featuring reworked cylinder heads, a specialized intake and throttle body, X51 exhaust manifolds, a PSE sport exhaust, an air box with a carbon-fiber cover, an auxiliary radiator, and dedicated engine mapping. 381 ch at 7,200 rpm and 415 Nm, compared to 355 ch for a standard Carrera S. On paper, that’s a 26 ch difference; behind the wheel, it’s an engine that no longer runs out of steam after 5,000 rpm, pulls strongly all the way to the redline, and sounds the way few 997s can. The six-speed manual transmission delivers this power unfiltered. The solid black (non-metallic) paint is a significantly less common color than Basalt on this generation: understated and matte in low-angle light, it highlights the 19-inch Carrera Sport wheels andthe all-leather interior with black gauges. Delivered new in Germany, this car has 63, 400 km on the odometer, a documented service history, and acomplete service performed at a Porsche Center on August 3, 2026. A 997.1 S just as you’d want it: naturally aspirated, manual, factory-fitted with the X51 package, and with no repairs needed.
