Launched as the range-topping 997.2 Carrera model for 2011, the GTS features the wider Carrera 4 body of the AWD models, a SportDesign front fascia, a SportDesign steering wheel, Alcantara interior upholstery, 19” RS Spyder center-lock wheels, and a 3.8-liter flat-six engine producing 408 HP. This 2012 Porsche 997.2 Carrera GTS Cabriolet is finished in Meteor Grey Metallic over a Black leather and Alcantara interior. It comes equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission, the optional Sport Chrono Package Plus, heated Adaptive Sport Seats, self-dimming mirrors, bi-xenon PDLS headlights, BOSE Surround Sound System, and Meteor Grey Metallic-painted wheels. Originally sold in Connecticut at a sticker price of over $123k, this Carrera GTS is now being offered for auction out of Oregon with approximately 21k miles showing on the odometer.
The GTS models feature 44mm wider bodywork derived from the all-wheel-drive Carrera 4 variant. It comes standard with a SportDesign front fascia, side skirts, GTS model designations on the doors, and a black rear valence with quad exhaust tips. This example is finished in Meteor Grey Metallic with a black power-operated convertible top. Equipment includes optional bi-xenon headlights with Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS), headlamp washers, LED taillights and daytime running lights, optional auto-dimming mirrors, a speed-activated rear spoiler, red brake calipers, and body-colored 19” RS Spyder center-lock wheels. The seller notes the exterior is in excellent overall condition, and the car rides on Bridgestone Potenza tires from 2021. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
Featuring Black leather and Alcantara upholstery, the interior includes optional heated Adaptive Sport Seats with driver memory, a three-spoke SportDesign steering wheel, a Sport Chrono dashboard stopwatch, automatic climate control, cruise control, the BOSE Surround Sound System, and Porsche Communication Management (PCM) with extended navigation.
This GTS is powered by a naturally aspirated 3.8-liter flat-six engine with a special resonance intake manifold and a sports exhaust system. It delivers up to 408 HP and 310 lb-ft of torque to the rear wheels through a 6-speed manual transmission. Performance features include Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), Porsche Stability Management (PSM), Automatic Brake Differential (ABD), 4-piston brakes with cross-drilled 13” rotors, and the optional Sport Chrono Package Plus. All available maintenance history is provided on the CARFAX report.

Coming down to the last hour here on this beautiful GTS Cabriolet. Please let us know if there are any questions! Full body PPF has recently been installed on the original paint to protect it and a fresh oil change was just done! This car is ready for many summers to come!

@Whatever123 Unfortunately I dont have any physical records. There's a good amount of service history on carfax and we are doing an oil change on the car I type this out.
Thank you for cold start. And receipts for previous service! Are there any?
@Whatever123 Cold start video has been uploaded
Are there service receipts included with sale? Any cold start videos coming?
Bid in the amount of $68,500
@Whatever123 It is a build in radar detector system.
@Guitarman - can't post pics here unfortunately. Also don't want to distract from the auction. :)
What is pictured in #132? Thanks
Bid in the amount of $68,000
@Guitarman Really?
@gpmotors thank you. Last 2 questions...is the top perfectly damage free other than its wrinkles & on the front bumper it has 4 matching gray painted plugs from tags...why 2 sets of plugs ? Florida has no front tags always better looking LOL. Thanx.
@FrankK986 I just uploaded to the gallery a photo of the monroneylabel as well

@Guitarman No affiliation, but go to https://vinanalytics.com/ and input the VIN. The MSRP was $123,710
@edanetz please post a pic of your GTS w/the Terracotta for comparison. I traded a guards red black '11 GTS Cab 2 years back w/PDK towards my wife's '11 997.2 Turbo S Cab PDK w/only 6600 miles. Trying to savor my personal PTS & ITS '85 Carrera 3.2 Coupe & this Gray 6 speed is quite nice alternative. Luv to see a window sticker.
Is there a copy of an original window sticker or a Certificate from Porsche to back up its $123K. list ? Thanx.

Photos of the paint meter readings have been uploaded.
NOTE: The paint meter readings show higher readings due to the PPF applied to entire vehicle. If you subtract the thickness of the PPF (around 8 mils) - the car shows ALL ORIGINAL paint.

@sasdev The previous owner had wrapped the entire car in PPF. When they did that, the shop removed the PPF but customer didn't want the badges put back on. If the buyer wants a set put back on, we can make that happen
I love this one!! Can't believe it's had 6 owners.???
Beautiful car ! Wonder why someone would debadge a gts
Bid in the amount of $40,000
@GTSence & @G50Targa I also have the only 6MT 2WD Meteor GTS Cabrio with a Terracotta interior and it's hard to contemplate parting with it. These are special cars and this one looks like an incredible example. Very interested to see where this ends up. Good Luck!
Does the car have the rear model delete option, or was the model designation removed?
Bid in the amount of $37,500
@GTSence, I own one of those 20 manual meteor cabs. Love your blog.
And I feel the same way - there’s something about that 3.8 NA with three pedals.
I ordered mine and I’ll never sell it.
Good luck seller!
I own a twin. When I did the research for my blog a few years ago, I discovered there were only 21 meteor, 6 speed, GTS cabs sold in the US. One had been wrecked, so just 20 on the road.
I've always said it's a 997 speedster at a fraction of the price.. and with a manual!
Occasionally I think about selling this car since it's been in my collection for over a decade now. It takes one drive for me to realize that is a terrible idea!
Obviously I love the spec presented here.. GLWA!!
