"A relatively affordable 911 for open-air driving, featuring a reliable technical specification."

Description

It was delivered to its first owner in California by the Porsche dealer in Newport Beach in December 2005. At the end of January 2010, a Swede working abroad purchased the car and imported it to Sweden in April the same year. He used his Porsche sparingly and maintained, serviced, and inspected it regularly.

The current owner acquired it in May 2021 with just over 63,000 km on the odometer and has continued the regular care. He even took it on a pleasant road trip to Spain a couple of years ago and has since added just over 30,000 km in five years. The most recent approved inspection was carried out on April 7, 2026.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition

    The car is a late 2006 model equipped with the larger IMS bearing, which eliminates the well-known issue associated with the engine and these bearings. Furthermore, the manual gearbox is, as always, a ???pleasant companion and perhaps somewhat uncommon on a U.S.-spec car. Nevertheless, a manual transmission is both enjoyable and reliable, and likely also beneficial for the car’s future value.

  • Interior condition

    A nice and fresh leather interior along with well-kept carpets, door panels, and dashboard. The current owner has purchased a new metric instrument cluster, which is included, but since all settings have been configured in the original cluster, only the analog speedometer displays miles. The odometer is set to kilometers and automatically converted itself to the correct mileage reading.

  • Exterior condition

    Over the years, the paint has been protected and treated multiple times with various paint protection programs, and it shows. A black car requires proper care to maintain its gloss and scratch-free finish. The soft top is also in very good and tidy condition. The owner has replaced the headlights with European-spec versions and removed the U.S.-specific elements from the rear bumper. Newer Michelin tires with good tread are fitted on the original wheels.

  • General condition

    A good example in well-maintained and appealing condition, with a sensible mileage and a manual gearbox that is likely to be valued more highly in the future. Compare, for example, the prices of manual Ferrari 360 and 430 models with those of their automated counterparts.

Facts about the model

The Porsche 911 generation 997 was produced between 2004 and 2013. It is often seen as a return to the model’s roots after the more controversial 996 generation, primarily through the reintroduction of the classic round headlights. It was introduced as a 2005 model with the Carrera and Carrera S, featuring a modernized interior and improved performance compared to its predecessor.

The Turbo version was launched in 2006 with 480 hp. During the same period, the more performance- and track-focused versions GT3 and GT3 RS were also introduced.

With the 997.2 generation, a major facelift was carried out. The most important updates were engines with direct fuel injection (DFI) and the introduction of the fast dual-clutch PDK transmission, which replaced the old Tiptronic automatic gearbox. Toward the end of the lifecycle, more extreme versions were launched, such as the 620 hp GT2 RS and the highly sought-after GT3 RS 4.0.
