The 2009 Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet pairs Arctic Silver Metallic paint with Black Leather upholstery and a Black convertible top. The 3.8-liter flat-six produces 385 horsepower and routes power through a 7-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic to the rear wheels. At 86,256 miles the car shows the compact 997.2 proportions, hydraulic steering, and naturally aspirated character that define this generation.

Factory equipment centers on the Sport Chrono Package Plus, which adds launch control, a sport mode for the PDK, and adjustable suspension settings. Power comfort seats with driver memory, heated and ventilated front seats, and automatic climate control with active charcoal filtration support daily use. The Porsche Communication Management system includes navigation, Bluetooth, XM satellite radio, and a 6-disc CD/DVD changer, while the BOSE High-End Sound Package supplies 235 watts through nine speakers.

Additional details include rain-sensing wipers, heated windshield washer jets, rear fog lights, front fog lights, daytime running lights, headlight cleaners, a power convertible roof with wind blocker, tire pressure monitoring, and a rear spoiler. The chassis carries active suspension with electronic ride control, front and rear stabilizer bars, 4-wheel ventilated disc brakes with ABS, stability control, and traction control. Interior trim uses leather on the door panels, dash, center console, and steering wheel, with alloy accents on the shift knob.
