This 2006 Porsche 997 Carrera Coupe was transformed into a dedicated race car by the specialists at RennPart in North Carolina in 2023. Featuring an upgraded Carrera S-sourced 3.8-liter flat-six paired with a replacement 6-speed manual transmission, the car was built to compete in PCA Club Racing’s I-Class and is also eligible for IGT, NASA, SCCA, SVRA, and other series. Driven on track for just six days since the build completion, this race-prepped 997 is now being offered for auction by its seller out of North Carolina.

Finished in Black, this 997 features front fog lights, a speed-activated rear spoiler, dual exhaust outlets, and the optional Bi-Xenon Headlamp Package. Racing upgrades include front and rear tow straps, upgraded Carrera S brakes, and 19” OZ Racing Ultraleggera HLT wheels mounted with Hoosier R7 tires. An additional set of factory wheels with Hoosier slicks will accompany the sale. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.

The interior has been stripped and converted into a lightweight racing cockpit featuring a full roll cage, fire suppression system, and CoolShirt system. Additional equipment includes an OMP GTE-R driver’s seat with a Schroth Racing harness, a suede-wrapped OMP three-spoke steering wheel, a Numeric Racing shifter with a wooden shift knob, an AIM MXM digital dash, and a Cartek electronic kill switch. The dashboard, sourced from the engine-donating Carrera S, displays an odometer reading of approximately 50k miles. For those interested in converting the car back for street use, the sale will include the original interior trim panels (original seats not included).

The Carrera S-sourced 3.8-liter flat-six engine was installed at approximately 137k chassis miles and reportedly had around 50k miles at the time. The seller notes that the current odometer reading minus an estimated 400–600 miles reflects the mileage at which the 2008 Porsche 911 Carrera S-sourced engine, dashboard, and brake calipers were installed. A replacement 6-speed manual transmission was also fitted at that time, sending power to the rear wheels. Performance upgrades include a 2-quart deep sump, 2-quart Accusump, third radiator, and a full suite of Tarett components including spherical-bearing dog bones, control arms, tie rod ends, camber plates, top mounts, and extended drop links. Suspension is managed by MCS 2-way dampers with Swift springs and GT3 sway bars, along with solid rear subframe bushings. Braking is provided by stainless steel lines, Girodisc 2-piece 350mm rotors, and Ferodo Racing DS3.12 pads. The seller states that approximately 400–600 miles have been added since the build was completed.

This race car is offered with a bill of sale and an additional set of wheels and tires.

 
 

The seller would like you to know: “This is a 2006 Porsche 911 Carrera tub BUT a newly built race car with a 2008 3.8-liter engine, transmission, and Carrera S calipers. She is tight, and she is fast. The car is being stored at one of the speed suites at VIR. The car was built by Aaron Elsner, a long-time Porsche guy and owner of Total Brakes. This 2006 911 Carrera was a street-legal car that I bought to convert and race with PCA and SVRA.”
