Kickdown's Take

by Art Georges

This silver Porsche 997 Carrera Cabriolet, featuring black leather and a 3.6-liter flat-six engine, is one of the most sought-after 911s from the latest generation, with hydraulic power steering and an analog driving experience. Accident-free, it has been owned by its current owner since 2008 and comes with a complete service history, including all invoices; it underwent a comprehensive service most recently in 2023 at the Porsche Center in Düsseldorf. The interior is original and very well-maintained. The 997 models are considered the entry point into the world of modern classics and have recently seen a significant increase in value. An open-top 911 for relaxed summer days!
