About this car

The 2006 Porsche 911 Carrera convertible pairs a sleek black exterior with a tan leather interior and delivers its signature driving experience through a 3.6L H6 engine mated to a manual transmission and rear-wheel drive. With just 44,499 miles, this Carrera Cabriolet remains in pristine condition and offers the engaging performance expected from the 997 generation.

Under the hood sits a 3.6L DOHC SMPI aluminum horizontally-opposed 24-valve six-cylinder engine featuring Vario-cam plus variable valve timing, Motronic ME 7.8 electronic engine management with electronic throttle, and a double inertia flywheel. Power reaches the rear wheels through a force-sensitive power rack-and-pinion steering system, while the chassis employs MacPherson strut front suspension with aluminum components, independent multi-link rear suspension with coil springs, and front and rear stabilizer bars. The car rolls on 18-inch Carrera III light alloy wheels wrapped in P235/40ZR18 performance front tires and P265/40ZR18 performance rear tires, supported by a 16.9-gallon fuel tank.

The power folding soft top and speed-dependent extendable rear spoiler define the convertible's exterior presence, complemented by H7 projector halogen headlights, power heated color-keyed mirrors, and rain-sensing wipers. Inside, the 2+2 cabin features leather seats, an Alcantara roof lining, leather-wrapped shift knob and handbrake lever, woodgrain trim, and an onboard computer with analog and digital instrumentation including speedometer, tachometer, and trip computer. Convenience items include power windows with one-touch operation, central locking with remote control, cruise control, Homelink universal garage door opener, remote hood and trunk releases, rear window defroster, CD storage shelf, integrated dual cup holders, footwell lighting, and a locking glove box.

Safety equipment comprises driver and front passenger airbags, front and rear side airbags, ABS brakes with four-wheel disc brakes, stability control, traction control, 3-point safety belts with pre-tensioners and load limiters, side-impact door beams, and front and rear crumple zones. Additional features include keyless entry, an anti-theft system with immobilizer and interior sensor, premium sound system, adjustable steering column, vanity mirrors, and variable intermittent wipers.

About the Porsche 911 Carrera 997

Production
2004–2008
Cylinders

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.
