The 997.1 Turbo is widely regarded as the last truly analog Turbo, combining the GT1-inspired Mezger engine with a manual gearbox: a configuration that has become increasingly sought after.
This example, delivered new in France (C05), is finished in Black (LC9Z) over a matching Black full leather interior (AT), creating a timeless and classy spec.
Having covered only 56,500 km, the car presents in immaculate condition, with a complete service history from new. It has had just three owners, all of whom have maintained the car with great care. The body retains its original paint, except for the front bonnet, refinished purely for stone chips.
The car has just been freshly serviced: fluids, brakes (front/rear discs + pads) and tires. It is ready to drive !
The 997.1 Turbo’s 3.6-liter twin-turbocharged Mezger engine produces 480 hp and 620 Nm of torque (up to 680 Nm with Sport Chrono overboost), capable of 0–100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds and a top speed of 310 km/h. Paired with the manual 6-speed transmission, it delivers an engaging, old-school driving experience that modern supercars can no longer replicate…
