2006 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S

£ 28 995

This 997 Carrera 4 S cabriolet stands out for two reasons….

Firstly, let’s talk about the factory specification. The original New Vehicle Order from Porsche Centre Hatfield accompanies the car, confirming a purchase price of more than £92,000. This wasn’t simply an expensive 911; it was one configured without compromise.

The interior is where this Carrera 4S truly distinguishes itself. It’s immediately apparent where the money was spent. The remarkable two-tone Black and Terracotta full leather interior extends across the seats, dashboard, centre console and door trims, creating a richness and warmth that perfectly suits and open top 911.

Providing exceptional comfort and support are the optional electrically adjustable Adaptive Sports Seats, complete with heating, embossed Porsche crests and driver memory.

Elsewhere, the specification continues with Sport Chrono Package Plus, a three-spoke multifunction steering wheel, stainless steel Carrera 4 S door entry guards, fully automatic climate control and a BOSE Surround Sound System.

Bringing modern convenience without compromising the character of the interior, the original PCM has been replaced by a Pioneer multimedia unit featuring integrated satellite navigation, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Waze, Bluetooth, DAB digital radio, dual USB connectivity and a reversing camera.

Outside, the curvaceous rear arches of the Carrera 4 S needs little introduction. Finished in Basalt black metallic, the wider body, PASM ride height and bright 19 inch SportDesign alloy wheels combine to create one of the most purposeful looking 997s Porsche ever produced. The quad tailpipes of the Sports Exhaust System provide the perfect finishing touch.

A Carrera 4 S like this offers much more than just impressive specification and provenance. Powered by a naturally aspirated 3.8 litre flat 6 producing 355 hp, it combines effortless performance with genuine everyday usability. The 6 speed manual gearbox and intelligent all-wheel drive system provide reassuring traction in all weathers. With a top speed of 179 mph, whether the roof is up or down, and a 0–62 mph time of just 4.9 seconds, this is a truly capable 911.
