A rare manual gearbox example of the sought-after Porsche 997 Carrera GTS in Carrara White, which benefits from various useful sports modifications and presents extremely well in every respect. The majority of these GTS’s were specified with PDK gearboxes, so the manual gearbox cars have become even more highly regarded by Porsche purists.
The 911 has captivated drivers for 50 years, and this Porsche GTS is no exception. The Porsche 911 (997) Carrera GTS, has the potential to be the best all-round 911 yet. An engine upgrade boosts power and torque and it uses the more seductive wide body from the four-wheel drive models; and features a whole host of other options. A special intake manifold, with six rather than one single flap, switches between power and torque-optimised maps. As a result, the output of the 3.8-litre flat six is raised from 380 BHP at 6500 rpm to 408 HP at 7300rpm, and although the torque figure remains at 311 lb/ft, it is produced at 200 rpm lower.
The 408 BHP Porsche 997 GTS blends the very best of the sports models in the Carrera range with the equipment level of the luxury derivatives. The GTS combines the high performance of the racetrack-inspired models with an everyday sportiness. With more power, and solid road holding, the GTS provides the best combination of power and handling.
Manual gearbox GTS’s are sure to increase in collectability due to their rarity and so provide a great route into modern classic Porsche ownership.
Our car was supplied new by Official Porsche Centre Glasgow, after which Glasgow carried out the first 3 of its bi-annual services, and Hexagon Classics carried out the following two services and brake fluid changes. The GTS will also be supplied with a comprehensive 12-months warranty. Available to view at our London showrooms.
