This 2005 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe represents the launch model year of the 997 generation. It comes finished in Guards Red over a Sand Beige full leather interior and features a naturally aspirated 3.6-liter flat-six engine, a 6-speed manual transmission, the optional Sport Chrono Package Plus, Power Seat Package, Bi-Xenon Headlamp Package, a Sony head unit with Apple CarPlay, an Alpine Subwoofer, Alpine speakers, a backup camera, 997.2-style LED taillights, and 19” 911 Turbo wheels. Purchased by the seller in January 2025 and serviced with an oil change, new tires, a wheel alignment, and a new battery, this 997 Carrera is now being offered for auction out of Florida with approximately 54k miles showing on the odometer.
This Carrera Coupe is finished in Guards Red and features optional bi-xenon headlights, headlamp washers, aftermarket LED corner lights, 997.2-style LED taillights, an electric sunroof, auto-dimming mirrors, a speed-activated rear spoiler, and dual exhaust outlets. The car rides on 19” 911 Turbo wheels mounted with new Hankook Ventus V12 Evo 2 tires in January 2025. This seller notes the paint remains all original and in very good overall condition, apart from some touched-up paint chips and scrapes on the underside of the front bumper. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
The cabin features premium Sand Beige full leather upholstery with matching carpets and an Alcantara headliner. Accessories include heated and power-adjustable front seats, a three-spoke leather steering wheel, a Sport Chrono dashboard stopwatch, automatic climate control, cruise control, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, an aftermarket Sony XAV-AX4000 head unit with Bluetooth and Apple CarPlay, a backup camera, upgraded Alpine speakers, and an Alpine PWE-S8 subwoofer. Some scuffing and discoloration are noted on plastic trim pieces, and the auto-dimming rearview mirror is inoperable. The seller states the airbag warning light appeared when the battery was weak, and the light remains present on the dashboard after a new battery was installed.
Producing up to 325 HP and 273 lb-ft of torque, the naturally aspirated 3.6-liter flat-six engine drives the rear wheels through a 6-speed manual transmission. The car features fixed 4-piston brakes with cross-drilled discs, Porsche Stability Management (PSM), and the optional Sport Chrono Package Plus, which adds a Sport drive mode. Since the seller’s purchase in January 2025, the car has undergone services including an oil and filter change, a wheel alignment, a new battery, and replacement of the front hood struts. The brake pads and rotors were also replaced under previous ownership in January 2024.
This sale will include owner’s manuals, a spare tire inflator, and a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: “This has been a wonderful ownership experience, the vehicle drives great, and I have done the necessary maintenance to keep it running right. It has been stored in my warehouse ever since. I hope this can go to a good new home!”

@Minkster I can see if my local dealer can get it in in time for that.
Can you get a DME report?
@CJPcar88 That's a good question and upon looking at it closer just now, it is all original with no indication of replacement or repaint. The mounting bolts look to have never been unscrewed as it still has solid paint on them. However, the factory stickers would have been placed on the plastic piece where the hydraulic rams are under for the spoiler, that part looks to have been replaced. It is branded by Webasto (German part) with a production date stamped 9/25/2018. So it was replaced well before my ownership and the previous owner's. Thanks for pointing that out.
Original paint is noted, is the engine lid original? I do not see any of the factory stickers on the underside. Thank you

@socrazyil it’s a private party sale, no additional fees. I just so happen to have a dealers license, but it’s not through my business on this particular sale.
Is this a dealer sale or a private party sale? I bid based on the fact it is private party.
@Tgilbert I’m a dealer, so I’d like to move cars I’ve had for a while, 4 months for me is a bit long.
@BR356 Hello, oil service done January of 2025 along with all new tires, alignment and new battery and brakes done January 2024.
Why are you selling so quick after purchasing in January 2025?
With respect to service, when was the following completed: Water pump, spark plugs, coil packs, injectors, oil change, brakes serviced or replaced? any oil tests done? Nice driver I would love to own.
