Finished in Black over a matching full leather interior, this 2008 Porsche 997 Turbo Cabriolet features a twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter Mezger flat-six engine paired with a 5-speed Tiptronic S automatic transmission. The car was sold new in Florida and came factory-equipped with the optional Sport Chrono Package Turbo, bi-xenon headlights, heated and power-adjustable front seats, a Bose sound system, Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), and 19” 911 Turbo wheels. The seller indicates this 997 was cared for by three prior owners in warm-climate states, and it recently underwent an annual service that included a replacement turbocharger. Showing under 71k miles on the odometer, this 997 Turbo is now being offered for auction out of California.
The Porsche 997 Turbo features wider fenders than a contemporary Carrera, rear side air intakes, model-specific bumpers, and a speed-activated rear wing. This example is finished in Black with a matching power-operated convertible top. Equipment includes bi-xenon headlights, headlamp washers, LED daytime running lights, fog lights, a front chin spoiler, heated power mirrors, dual exhaust outlets, and red Porsche-branded brake calipers. The car rides on factory 19” 911 Turbo wheels dressed in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires produced in 2023, with 9/32” tread depth. The CARFAX report shows an accident with damage to the front and right-front corner in 2009, and the seller believes the bumper covers were previously refinished to a very high standard. Detailed images are provided in the gallery.
The cabin is appointed with Black full leather upholstery and features heated and power-adjustable front seats with driver memory, a three-spoke steering wheel with Tiptronic shift buttons, and a Sport Chrono dashboard stopwatch. Other accessories include automatic climate control, cruise control, a remote central locking system, a digital instrument cluster display, Porsche Communication Management (PCM), and a Bose sound system.
Equipped with twin Variable Turbine Geometry (VTG) turbochargers, VarioCam Plus variable valve timing, and an integrated dry-sump lubrication system, the 3.6-liter Mezger flat-six engine was factory-rated at 480 HP and 460 lb-ft of torque. All four wheels are driven through an optional 5-speed Tiptronic S automatic transmission that provides quicker acceleration than the standard 6-speed manual. Performance features include 13.8” cross-drilled brake discs, 6-piston front and 4-piston rear brake calipers, Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), Porsche Stability Management (PSM), an electronically controlled center differential, and the optional Sport Chrono Package Turbo, which includes an overboost setting for increased peak torque in temporary bursts. The seller notes a service was recently completed, including an oil and filter change, new cabin and engine air filters, and replacing the left-bank turbocharger.
This sale will include owner's manuals, a toolkit, a tire inflator, and a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: "This stunning Porsche 911 Turbo (997) is a Carfax-certified three-owner vehicle with an exceptional maintenance history, including 33 documented service records—most completed by authorized Porsche dealers. The car has resided exclusively in warm-weather states, contributing to its excellent overall condition. It rides on nearly new tires with 9/32" tread depth remaining on all four corners."
