About this car

The 2006 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet presents a striking Guards Red exterior paired with Black/Sand Beige leather interior. This low-mileage example shows just 5,808 miles and is powered by a 3.8L flat-six engine paired with a six-speed manual transmission and all-wheel drive. The convertible soft top and classic 997-generation styling deliver open-air performance with everyday usability.

Factory equipment includes the Porsche Active Suspension Management system, Porsche Stability Management, and an active brake differential for precise handling. Bi-Xenon headlights with dynamic leveling and washers, rain-sensing wipers, and a speed-dependent rear spoiler enhance both safety and presence. Inside, the cabin features power-adjustable front bucket seats, automatic climate control with carbon filter, and a leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel with Porsche crest.

Additional standard equipment encompasses the PCM infotainment system with CD player and nine-speaker audio, HomeLink garage door opener, cruise control, and full power accessories. The convertible top operates smoothly, while the rear bench offers pass-through seating and the trunk provides remote releases for both hood and lid.

Factory color

Guards Red

Porsche factory color · paint code 84A

Guards Red is one of Porsche's most recognizable colors: a rich, solid red with a minimal hint of orange and a special luminosity that makes a bold statement on any 911. Originally known as India Red, it has been offered as a standard 911 color since the 1970s. Earlier cars, including mid-1980s 911s, carried it under code 027, and it later appeared under codes 80K and 84A on models including the 964, 993 and 996 into the early 2000s.

Powertrain
Combustion

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.
