About this car

The 2005 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe presents a timeless example of Porsche engineering, finished in Arctic Silver Metallic over a classic coupe profile. Powered by a naturally aspirated 3.6L flat-six engine paired with a precise 6-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive, this 997-generation 911 delivers the engaging driving dynamics enthusiasts seek in a pure sports car.

With 79,666 miles recorded, the Carrera Coupe balances daily usability and weekend performance. The 3.6-liter H6 produces strong mid-range pull while returning 22 city and 30 highway mpg on premium unleaded fuel. Its compact dimensions—178.8 inches long, 79.7 inches wide, and 51.8 inches tall—combined with a low center of gravity, contribute to the model’s renowned handling balance and stability at speed.

Standard equipment includes seating for four within a driver-focused cockpit, emphasizing the 911’s dual nature as both a capable grand tourer and a focused sports car. Every element, from the distinctive wide-body stance to the responsive manual gearbox, reflects Porsche’s commitment to precision and driver engagement.

About the Porsche 911 Carrera 997

Production

Powertrain
Combustion

The Porsche 911 Carrera 997, part of the fifth generation of the iconic 911 lineup, was produced between 2004 and 2012 (model years 2005-2012). Approximately 213,000 units were manufactured across all variants during its production run, making it less rare than some earlier 911 generations but still desirable among collectors for its balance of modern engineering and classic Porsche design. The 997 Carrera base model featured a 3.6-liter flat-six engine, producing 325 horsepower, while the Carrera S offered a 3.8-liter version with 355 horsepower. Performance highlights include a 0-60 mph time of around 4.8 seconds for the Carrera S with a top speed nearing 182 mph.

For exotic car collectors, the 997 holds appeal due to its historical significance as a return to a more rounded, classic 911 aesthetic after the controversial 996 design. Special editions like the 997 GT3 RS and Turbo models are particularly sought after, with limited production numbers and track-focused engineering. Value trends show steady appreciation, especially for low-mileage examples and manual transmission variants, as the 997 is often seen as one of the last analog-feeling 911s before the shift to more digital systems in later generations.
