The Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (997 generation) was produced between 2005 and 2012 as part of the fifth iteration of the iconic 911 lineup. This model, available in both coupe and cabriolet variants, saw approximately 40,000 units produced across all 997 Carrera 4S trims, though exact numbers for specific configurations are less documented. It features a 3.8-liter flat-six engine, delivering 385 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque, paired with either a 6-speed manual or a 7-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission. Performance highlights include a 0-60 mph time of around 4.5 seconds (with PDK) and a top speed of approximately 185 mph, showcasing its balance of power and all-wheel-drive grip.
For exotic car collectors, the 997 Carrera 4S holds appeal due to its transitional role between analog and modern Porsche engineering, with the last generation to offer a hydraulic steering system. Values have appreciated in recent years, particularly for well-maintained manual transmission models, with prices often ranging from $40,000 to $70,000 depending on condition and mileage. Special editions, like the 997.2 with updated direct fuel injection, add to its collectible status, reflecting Porsche’s evolution in performance and technology.
