This launch year Porsche 997 Carrera Coupe comes finished in Black over a matching interior and features a 6-speed manual transmission connected to its flat-six engine. The car has been modified with a GT3 front bumper and spoiler as well as an OEM GT3 shift knob, GT3 throttle body, IPD intake plenum, Fabspeed exhaust, H&R sway bars, 19” OZ Racing wheels, and more. It was acquired by the current owner just over a year ago and its now being offered for auction out of Canada with approximately 91k kilometers (56k miles) showing on the odometer.
This Coupe is finished in Black with a GT3-style front bumper and rear wing. The brake calipers have been professionally repainted in Racing Yellow and the front end is said to have been blended at the time of the GT3 bumper installation. The car rides on a set of 19” OZ Racing HLT Lightweight Ultraleggera wheels dressed in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires from 2017. A couple of small touched-up chips are noted as well as minor swirl marks in the paint. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
The black interior has been fitted with an OEM GT3 Alcantara shift knob and boot as well as custom black carpet floor mats and aluminum pedal covers. Common signs of wear are reported on the climate control knob and the seller confirms all gauges and accessories are working properly.
Rated at 325 HP and 273 lb.-ft of torque stock, the naturally aspirated 3.6-liter flat-six engine drives the rear wheels by way of a 6-speed manual transmission. The engine has been upgraded with an IPD plenum and 997 GT3 throttle body as well as a Fabspeed air intake, exhaust, and headers. The suspension has also been upgraded with Bilstein B8 shocks, H&R springs, and H&R sway bars. Service completed in 2022 is said to have included replacement of the spark plugs, transmission fluid, power steering fluid, coolant, brake pads, sensors, and rotors.
This sale will include owner’s manuals and a clean title (lien).

@Fortun3 Hi it is through a very reputable dealership here Pfaff Leasing, we can process paperwork through them. Would likely need payment to them to clear title.
Hi clean car. I like the upgrades. How quickly can you get a free and clear title? Do you need entire payment before you get the lien release? I’m in a the USA so I’d need all the paperwork and title done before importing it I assume. Thanks
Goodluck Bidders!

@UTR I am unsure of the actual process but I can assume we can find a broker that can assist with paperwork. I also have a contact at Pfaff that I can reach out to.
How do I import this into the USA
@ckelly011 Tire DOT is 1017, estiamted tread probably 7mm ish. Front brakes pads and rotors were changed Aug 2022. Rear pads and rotors were changed Oct 2022.
Hi, what're the date stamps on the tires, estimated tread remaining, and how are the brakes?
Thanks GLWA
@Quackbury It was an original US Spec car, @Blubusdrvr was correct.
Importing/Exporting wise I do not see it being a huge problem as it was originally a US Spec and has a clean title.
@Quackbury This is a US car. Yes, there will be some paperwork but was a US spec car when delivered. If you look the gauges are all in MPH and F as well. Without cats it most likely won't pass many states emissions as it sits but will definitely be easy to "import".
@DrewYan I'm wondering if some information on what's involved in importing a Canadian car into the USA might help drum up more interest in buyers South of your border?
Paperwork, title, converting the gauge faces, etc. We commonly see that info on other auction sites buy many potential bidders may not frequent those.
Hi All, last 24 hrs.
Cold Start and quick walk around Video has been uploaded.
Let me know if there are anymore questions.
Cheers,
Andrew
@stupendous to my knowledge it has not been done. Previous owner claims they have run the test and confirmed there was no issues with the ims or rms.
@DrewYan So can we confirm that the IMS has not been replaced? Has a Blackstone analysis ever been done with the oil? Thanks

Last couple days.
Best of luck and feel free to comment with questions.
Cheers
@Drive-em There are no cats on the car just the fabspeed full exhaust.
In terms of build sheet I can work on getting that.
Nice 997. Is all of the emissions equipment still in place? Do you have the build sheet or orig window sticker showing options it came with?
Thanks!
Bid in the amount of $10,000
@singlemalt thanks for asking. No rust on body or underbody.
Previous owner advised it was never wintered and I have never wintered.
Being in Canada for ~14yrs, was the car ever driven in winter? Any signs of rust?
@dsals hey, to my knowledge there have not been any issues with the ims bearing or any signs of failure. Engine wise, it has been running strong every since my ownership and have always done regular oil changes.
Have not had any issues engine or transmission wise.
Nice looking GT3-lite. Sorry to be the first comment but do you have any more details to share about the engine? IMS issues or other?
Cold Start video and Driving Video to be uploaded soon.
Best of luck!
Hi All,
Welcome to my auction of my launch year 2005 997 911 Carrera Aerokit. If you have any questions feel free to reach out, I will be active throughout the auction to answer these questions or concerns. This was my first 911 and love it to death and it has really grown to reflect me as an individual. Hoping this car goes to a good home that will look after her and keep her mint. Priorities have changed at the moment but I hope to be back into a 911 at some point. The driving experience with the manual transmission is second to none and it is unmatched. The drive is as raw and as visceral as can be. Best of luck and hope someone gets a chance at enjoying her as much as I did. Thank you - Drew
