Model: 2008 Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet (997.1)
Transmission: 6-speed manual
Exterior Colour: Meteor Grey Metallic
Interior: Black Leather with silver dials and Sport Chrono stopwatch
Additional Features: Sport Chrono Plus Package
Fresh into stock, we are excited to offer this exceptional late-model 2008 Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet (997.1), equipped with the highly desirable 6-speed manual gearbox and Sport Chrono Plus Package. The 997 generation is widely celebrated as one of the purest and prettiest 911s, marking a return to the classic round headlights after the controversial 996. It’s also the last of the compact, analog-feeling 911s before the larger 991 came into production.
This example is in superb condition, showcasing the meticulous care of its five previous owners. Finished in elegant Meteor Grey Metallic with black leather and silver dials, it exudes a sophisticated, timeless appeal. With the later production 3.8-litre engine, this 997 Carrera S benefits from Porsche’s enhanced engineering, free from the IMS bearing issues that affected earlier models.
Thoroughly maintained from new, this Carrera S Cabriolet boasts a faultless service record, with the last major service performed by Invictus Motors Porsche Specialists in February 2024. As part of this check, the car underwent a detailed health inspection, including a rev range report and bore scope, confirming no ignitions stored in ranges 4, 5, or 6 and no signs of bore scoring. The car feels remarkably tight and responsive on the road, delivering the iconic, visceral 911 driving experience.
This 911 Cabriolet comes complete with both a full car cover and a half cover, as well as the factory wind deflector, enhancing convenience and comfort for the new owner.
With the 997 generation's rising desirability and enduring market value, this Carrera S Cabriolet offers a unique blend of driving pleasure and residuals. It’s an ideal choice for a true Porsche enthusiast seeking a modern classic 911 to cherish.
