— Sold to David & Sally —

‘Triple Black’ Porsche 911 Carrera 4S 3.8 997 Gen 2 Cabriolet finished in stunning Basalt Black Metallic (code LC9Z), black hood and extended black leather interior. The turbo widebody is paired with striking 19-inch Sport Design lightweight alloy wheels finished in metallic BBS Silver which are as new, having been freshly refurbished by us. The 911 comes with the incredible 7-speed PDK double clutch automatic gearbox, Sport Design steering wheel with full size manual shift paddles, Sport Chrono Package Plus with SPORT, SPORT PLUS and LAUNCH CONTROL modes.

The 911 Carrera 4S comes fitted with the rear mounted 3.8 litre flat six engine that produces 385bhp and propels the 4 wheel drive sportscar to 60mph in under 4.3 seconds in Launch Control mode and on to a 188mph top speed. The convertible hood can be operated remotely with the Porsche keys or even on the move, up to around 30mph should the weather change suddenly. The 997 generation 2 cars do not suffer all of the problems of early 997 generation 1 cars, including IMS bearing failures, RMS leaks and Borescoring, all of these issues were eradicated by Porsche when they designed the all-new direct fuel injection (DFI) 911 engines for the generation 2 997s.

Background
Production of the second generation 997 series 911 Carrera 4S began in 2009, it featured an all new engine with Direct Fuel Injection (DFI) which is mounted 10mm lower in the car, revised suspension system, new front bumper with larger air intakes, LED rear and front daylight running lights, all new Porsche Communication Management (PCM) System with touchscreen, hard drive navigation and Bluetooth.

“Behind the second-generation 997’s redesign lies one of the most significant sports cars of the moment. The 911 has always made sense for its practicality and dynamism, but now it’s even more polished, even quicker and significantly greener. It’s even better to drive. Porsche has played down the changes to the suspension, but they have completely eliminated the old car’s tendency to bob its nose up and down in response to changes in road surface and elevation. So you can lean on the front end with far more confidence now, while the 911’s trademark steering remains intact, offering stacks of feedback and instant turn-in. It’s pliant and handles brilliantly – a great mix.”

Exterior
Our hand selected Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet looks stunning in its metallic coat of Basalt Black, a striking colour for the 997.2, especially with the red strip reflector on the rear of the wider bodyshell. Just the Carrera 4 and Carrera 4S models came in the 4.4cm wider body shell, the Carrera 2 and 2S were only sold in the narrow 911 body. The 19-inch Sport Design lightweight alloy wheels finished in metallic BBS Silver are the perfect contrast to the paintwork. The paintwork condition is excellent, with no blemishes on any panel. All the trim has a perfect finish, as do the front and clear rear lights, which are free from any damage or moisture buildup. The windows drop as they should when you open the door. The engine and boot struts also operate as they should. The black convertible fabric hood is fully electric and operates perfectly, stowing away in its own compartment behind the rear seats. It has been treated with the Autoglym hood cleaner and water repellent treatment so is in as new condition. The convertible hood can be operated remotely with the Porsche keys or even on the move, up to around 30mph should the weather change suddenly.

Interior
The hardback sports seats come with optional 2-stage heating and Porsche Crest embossed headrests. Just like the rest of the extended black leather interior, they are in excellent condition and provide a perfect pairing to the Basalt Black bodywork. The Sport Design steering wheel is a fantastic option, as it includes full size PDK shift levers, making it very easy and intuitive to manually shift gears. There are no marks or signs of wear to any of the trim, panels or switchgear, with the leather retaining a wholly fresh appearance throughout.

Engine and Transmission
Our 911 Carrera 4S is equipped with the 3.8 litre flat six DFI engine, which addressed all previous weaknesses of the 996 and 997 first generation engines. The 911 Carrera 4S engine produces 385bhp and 310ft-lb of torque. The axle load distribution of approximately 40:60 ensures high directional stability and superb road behaviour. The engine starts cleanly when cold or hot, there is no smoke whatsoever either at startup or when driving. There are no unusual sounds or rattles when the engine is running. Our 911 Carrera 4S is equipped with the highly desired switchable sports suspension system (PASM), which includes the dashboard switch that stiffens the suspension in an instant, increasing connection to the road.

The Carrera 4S is also fitted with Sport Chrono Package Plus, which adds a SPORT and SPORT PLUS button that sharpen the throttle response, decreases shift speeds, hold gears for longer and blips the throttle on downshifts whilst also adding a dashboard mounted stopwatch to add to the sporting image of the C4S.

The mechanically locking rear limited-slip differential is also a choice addition to the equipment list on this 911 C4S.

The optional 7-speed double-clutch PDK transmission system provides instant changes, unleashing the power of the engine with minimal fuss. Because it has been specified in combination with Sport Chrono Package Plus, it unlocks additional shift speeds in both SPORT PLUS and LAUNCH CONTROL modes. These modes are only available with these options selected from the factory along with PDK. They enable the Carrera 4S to respond and accelerate faster than the standard car, reducing the in-gear acceleration and the headline 0-60mph time by 0.4 seconds to just 4.3 seconds.

Wheels, Tyres and Brakes
Our 911 Carrera 4S comes fitted with the optional 19-inch Sport Design lightweight alloy wheels finished in metallic BBS Silver, which are original, unmarked, free of damage and corrosion, as they have been fully refurbished by us. The brake discs and pads are in good condition with minimal wear, the front brake discs and pads have been replaced by us in November 2021. The tyres are N rated Pirelli P-Zero high performance tyres, with plenty of tread left on them.
