2008 Porsche 911 Turbo (997.1) 6-Speed Cabriolet: 1 of the approximate 848 997.1 Turbo Cabriolets to have landed in North America with the 2008 model year designation featuring a manual transmission and in its configuration of convertible, manual, model year and market region, it’s 1 of an estimated 19 to have been specified in Guards Red with a cabin completed in Black Full Leather.
Situated on the notable 19-inch Turbo wheels with a body donned in the Porsche’s exalted red hue of Guards Red over a suave Black Full Leather upholstered cabin that is visually elevated by dark-finished stitching found throughout the cabin and embossed Porsche crests located on the headrests of the perforated front comfort seats while the option of allowing the atmosphere to be fully invited in by way of retracting the Black finished soft top, this remarkable Turbo Cab displays an odometer reading of a low 5,XXX miles, exhibits a Clean CARFAX Report, and featured an original MSRP of $140,810 with a build sheet listing the following equipment: Heated Front Seats; Parking Assist System; Sport Chrono Package Turbo; Floor Mats in Interior Color; Black Full Leather; Guards Red; Cabriolet roof in Black; Porsche Crest in Headrest.
The 997.1 Turbo’s Significance: It’s the last 911 Turbo (and Turbo convertible) to house the iconic 911 GT1-derived Mezger twin-turbocharged engine in conjunction with a manual transmission. The 997.2 Turbos feature an all-new engine, while the 991 and now 992 turbos are only seen in PDK. Though the latter cars are more dynamic, powerful, and are even more technological wonders than the 997.1 Turbo, the Turbos preceding the 997.1 Turbo are larger in size, don’t feature the sought-after favorable sizing and mechanicalness as offered by the 997.1 generation Turbo. The 997.1 turbo is very much a new-age Porsche 959 with heightened usability for everyday use and is that car that will not be replicated again.
