Though lively-natured, it’s also very livable with daily practicality in mind. With the GTS, you’re able to have an encounter with a Carrera in its most effervescently exploited form and the cabriolet’s intimacy with the open-air deepens the emotive impact that the GTS imparts on its driver.
A Few Notable Characteristics (and Numbers) Regarding The 997 GTS: Made available for the 2011 and 2012 model years, it’s reported that 6,747 examples are said to have been produced with approximately 1,813 of those units having been designated as GTS convertibles with a rear-wheel-drive configuration. The GTS is the only wide-body, rear-wheel-drive Non-GT 911 that is the last of the right-sized, classic-svelte-911-shaped, and naturally-aspirated 997 911 Carreras. Positioned in-between the GT3 and the S models, the GTS variant is the absolute pinnacle in the 911 Carrera range! Its standard features include (but are not limited to) a wider rear track; Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM); a variable resonance intake system (mid-rev range torque adder); Integrated dry-sump lubrication; and a Sports exhaust system.

Upon viewing this GTS Cabriolet, your presence is welcomed by a seductive setup, a sensual Black finish in conjunction with color coordinating 19-inch RS Spyder center-lock wheels (showcased in front of red brake calipers with white ‘Porsche’ script) and a matching soft-top, gives it an imposing presence; the protruding wide rear width; a SportDesign front bumper with lower-trim shown in the factory “non-painted” black finish (the theme continues onto the side skirts, exhaust’s rear trim panel, and the side areas of the rear bumper); ‘Carrera GTS’ door located insignia in silver; an automatically deploying spoiler; Bi-Xenon headlights; quad-dual tailpipes with a bright-finish.
Just as you enter the Black Full Leather cabin, that’s swathed in Alcantara, you’re first met by aluminum door sills with ‘Carrera GTS’ insignia in black, and when inside you can expect to find light-colored twin-stitching, and aluminum/brushed aluminum/metallic-coated surfacing, on select areas. The driver is faced with a 3-spoke SportDesign steering wheel wrapped in Alcantara that also makes its way onto the handles, central panel, and compartment lid regions of each door, as well as on the seats, lower dashboard zone, shift boot, and center compartment lid further accentuated by a raised ‘PORSCHE’ logo; instrumentation clusters in Carrara White; supple leather that extends onto the upper dashboard and door areas, that’s handsomely highlighted by contrasting stitching; a centrally located dash-mounted SportChrono featured in Carrara White; 6.5-inch touchscreen navigation display; the highly stimulating 6-speed shifter. Front occupants are embraced by Adaptive Sport seats featuring memory settings for the driver, heating functionality for both occupants, and backrest shells donned in a brush-metallic finish and can expect in-cabin audio playback via the optioned BOSE Surround Sound System, featuring 12-speakers.
