The Porsche 911 (997) Carrera GTS Cabriolet, is a drop-top version of the regular 997 Carrera GTS final-edition special. Based on the 911 Carrera S but with the wider 911 body normally reserved for more potent models such as the all-wheel-drive 911s, the GT2 RS and the GT3, it houses the naturally aspirated 3.8-litre, flat-six engine but crucially on the GTS it gets the usually optional Power kit as standard, boosting its output by 22 bhp to 402 bhp. PASM - Porsche Active Suspension Management is standard, as is the Sports Exhaust whilst this particular example comes with the optional PDK Dual Clutch Transmission. With the latest 911s all adopting turbocharged engines this has led to the 997 Series becoming increasingly desirable and the GTS is one of the very finest iterations of the 997.
Finished in Carrara White (named after Carrara Marble) with a black leather interior, this stunning Porsche 997 Carrera Gen II GTS Cabriolet has covered only 1,160 miles by its one owner. Supplied to our vendor by Porsche Leicester equipped to a very high standard with Universal audio interface, Extended navigation, Sport chrono package plus, Homelink garage door opening, Cruise control, Automatic dimming mirrors, Parking assist, PDK seven-speed gearbox, Sports seat backrests in body colour, Telephone module, heated seats and rear park assist.
The mileage is corroborated by past MOTs and the car was last serviced by Porsche Reading on 18-5-2021 at 1,159 miles.
The 997 is often regarded as the last involving 911 and, as a Gen II, this 'as new' stunner is unrepeatable.
