Porsche 997 911 Carrera S Cabriolet (2005)

Kickdown's Take
by Moritz HelbichThis 997 Carrera S Cabriolet stands out thanks to its coveted combination of a 355-PS engine and manual transmission, making it a modern classic. It is a garage-kept vehicle in very well-maintained condition with a comprehensive service history. The mileage is verifiable via the service booklet. Sports cars in this category have high potential for appreciation. An authentic, open-top 911 for purists who appreciate the thrill of open-air driving.

Comments of this past auction
Technik: Technisch von der Vorgängerserie wenig abweichend, wurde mit dem letzten Werk des Porsche-Chefdesigners Harm Lagaay eine Änderung präsentiert, die für Diskussionen sorgte: die Wiedereinführung der runden Scheinwerfer. Diese Modifikation betrachteten die meisten Kunden und Anhänger der Marke als Rückgewinn eines vermissten typischen Merkmals des klassischen Porsche 911, da die kontrovers diskutierten und beim Vorgänger Porsche 996 eingeführten, sogenannten Spiegeleier-Leuchten hier wieder abgeschafft wurden und somit ein dem „originalen“ 911 (bzw. dem Porsche 993) ähnlicheres Erscheinungsbild wiederhergestellt wurde.
