Produced solely for the 2005 model year, the 996 Turbo S features the X50 Turbo Powerkit and Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB). One of 963 Turbo S Cabriolets built, this rare example is further distinguished by a 6-speed manual transmission. Finished in Arctic Silver Metallic over Black full leather upholstery, it features heated front seats, exclusive stainless steel exhaust pipes, and more. Having spent most of its time as part of a collection, this Turbo S is now being offered for auction by its seller out of New Jersey with less than 1k miles showing on the odometer.
Sporting wide bodywork, the Turbo S differs from the standard 996 Turbo by silver badging on the rear decklid and yellow-painted calipers as part of its ceramic brake system. This example comes finished in Arctic Silver Metallic (92U) with a black convertible soft top. Equipment includes xenon headlights, fog lights, a speed-activated rear spoiler, and optional exclusive stainless steel exhaust pipes. It rides on 18” Turbo Twist wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport tires mounted in April 2023. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
Inside, the cabin presents Black full leather upholstery with matching Porsche-lettered floor mats. Amenities include driver’s seat memory functions, a CD stereo, a remote CD changer, a Bose sound system, automatic climate control, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and optional heated front seats.
The Turbo S features the X50 Turbo Powerkit which equips its 3.6-liter Mezger flat-six engine with larger K24 turbochargers and intercoolers along with a revised ECU and exhaust system. Up to 450 HP is sent to all four wheels by way of a 6-speed manual transmission. Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB) come standard and include larger 6-piston monobloc front calipers and cross-drilled 350mm ceramic discs at the front and rear. The seller adds that the oil was changed and the hood struts were replaced in April 2023.
This sale will include a clean title.

I welcome everyone to the auction of one of the lowest mileage 05 Turbo S Cabriolets on the face of the planet.
This car is literally like new. The body, interior, underbody, you name it. It’s been serviced under previous ownership as well. Always climate control stored by the past owners. The Carfax on this one is misleading as it was only two actual owners. One of the "owners" shown was just changing the title from a company name to an individuals.
I will let the photos do the talking here. To anyone who wants to own what is without a doubt one of the very best, this is certainly it. 2005 was the final year that the 996 body was produced and I am quite confident that this cars value will appreciate as the hands of time tick on.
Add this to your collection or enjoy a like new 996 Turbo S. It’s ready for either!
Please tag @VantageAuto with any questions and I will get right back to you
Best,
