About this car
The 2006 Porsche 911 Carrera S delivers the pure, mechanical character that defines the 997 generation. Powered by a 3.8L H6 engine paired with a manual transmission, this example is finished in Red Crest exterior over Leather interior and shows 32,517 miles. One of the last naturally aspirated 911s with hydraulic steering, it offers direct feedback and an engaging driving experience that later generations moved away from.
Inside, the cabin emphasizes Porsche's signature build quality with supportive seating and intuitive controls. The car comes equipped with the Sport Chrono Package Plus, which sharpens throttle response and includes a stopwatch for track use. PASM adaptive suspension works with Porsche Stability Management to balance comfort and precision, while 19-inch Carrera S wheels complete the stance.
Additional equipment includes bi-xenon headlights, automatic climate control, a premium audio system, power front seats, cruise control, keyless entry, and tire pressure monitoring. The convertible soft top, leather sport seats, and sea blue floor mats further enhance the open-air experience, while wheel caps with colored crest add a distinctive touch.

The Porsche 911 Carrera S (997 generation) was produced from 2004 to 2012, marking the fifth iteration of the iconic 911 lineup. As part of the 997.1 (2004-2008) and 997.2 (2009-2012) phases, Porsche manufactured approximately 213,000 units of the 997 generation across all variants, with the Carrera S being a popular performance model. Specific production numbers for the Carrera S are not publicly detailed, but its prevalence among enthusiasts suggests a significant share of the total.
The Carrera S initially featured a 3.8-liter flat-six engine in the 997.1, producing 355 horsepower, later upgraded to 385 horsepower in the 997.2 with direct fuel injection. It achieves 0-60 mph in around 4.5 seconds (manual transmission) and a top speed of approximately 182 mph. A key highlight for collectors is the availability of limited editions like the Carrera S Powerkit, offering enhanced performance. The 997 is historically significant as the last 911 generation to widely offer a manual transmission across trims. Value trends show steady appreciation, especially for low-mileage, manual examples, with prices often ranging from $40,000 to $70,000 USD depending on condition and provenance, making it a desirable entry point for exotic car collectors.
