Powertrain
Combustion

The Porsche 911 Carrera 4 (997 generation) was produced from 2005 to 2012 as part of the fifth iteration of the iconic 911 lineup. This all-wheel-drive variant of the Carrera offered enhanced traction and stability, appealing to drivers seeking performance in varied conditions. Approximately 30,000 units of the Carrera 4 and Carrera 4S (the more powerful version) were produced across coupe, cabriolet, and Targa body styles, making it less rare than some limited-edition 911 models but still desirable among collectors for its refined engineering.

Equipped with a naturally aspirated flat-six engine, the base Carrera 4 (2005-2008) delivered 325 horsepower from a 3.6-liter displacement, while the later 2009-2012 models featured a 3.6-liter with 345 horsepower. The Carrera 4S offered a 3.8-liter engine, producing 355 horsepower (early models) and up to 385 horsepower (later models). Performance highlights include a 0-60 mph time of around 4.5-5.0 seconds, depending on the model and transmission (manual or PDK dual-clutch). Its historical significance lies in being the last 911 generation before the full transition to turbocharged engines in the 991 series, adding to its appeal. Values have remained stable or appreciated slightly, especially for well-maintained, low-mileage examples or rare configurations like
