2005 Porsche 911 Carrera S Coupe 6-Speed

Finished in elegant Seal Grey Metallic over a black leather interior, this 2005 Porsche 911 Carrera S Coupe 6-Speed hails from the launch era of the highly regarded 997-generation 911, pairing classic Porsche proportions with modern usability and performance. Power comes from a naturally aspirated 3.8-liter flat-six producing 355 horsepower, sent to the rear wheels through a desirable six-speed manual transmission. Showing under 63,000 miles at the time of cataloging, this Carrera S combines analog driver engagement with everyday comfort, further enhanced by Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), the Sport Chrono Package, and optional 19-inch Carrera Classic wheels. Originally delivered with an MSRP of $83,260, this example presents as a thoughtfully optioned enthusiast specification car ready for the road ahead.

Factory equipment includes heated front seats, Bose High End Sound Package, colored Porsche crest wheel caps, bi-xenon headlights, a power sliding sunroof, and automatic climate control. The Sport Chrono Package added both performance-oriented functionality and customizable driving settings, while the Carrera S-specific mechanical upgrades included larger brakes, staggered 19-inch wheels, PASM adaptive suspension, and the more powerful 3.8-liter engine. Finished in one of the era’s most timeless Porsche color combinations, the car retains the understated sporting character that has made early 997 Carrera S models increasingly sought after among enthusiasts.

The seller notes that the car recently benefited from a comprehensive service completed on July 1, 2024. Work performed is said to have included an oil and filter change, safety inspection, replacement of the spark plugs, direct ignition coils, serpentine belt, engine air filter, and cabin filter. With its coveted three-pedal configuration, naturally aspirated flat-six powerplant, and recent maintenance, this 997-generation Carrera S offers an engaging and increasingly collectible modern Porsche driving experience well suited for both spirited road use and long-distance touring.
