About this car

The 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera GTS delivers the signature blend of precision engineering and everyday usability that defines the model line. Finished in Guards Red, this coupe presents a bold exterior that highlights its sculpted lines and iconic silhouette.

The cabin is trimmed in Black, creating a focused and driver-centric environment. Under the engine lid sits a 3.8L H6, mated to an automatic transmission and sending power exclusively to the rear wheels for classic 911 dynamics.

With its balanced proportions and performance-oriented setup, this example continues to represent the GTS variant's emphasis on sharpened responses and distinctive styling cues.

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.

Combustion

The Porsche 911 Carrera GTS (991 generation) was produced between 2014 and 2019 as part of the 991.1 and 991.2 series, marking the seventh generation of the iconic 911 lineup. Approximately 10,000 units of the Carrera GTS were manufactured across coupe, cabriolet, and Targa body styles, making it a relatively rare variant compared to base Carrera models. It is powered by a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six engine in the 991.2 (post-2017) models, delivering 450 horsepower and 405 lb-ft of torque, while earlier 991.1 versions featured a naturally aspirated 3.8-liter engine with 430 horsepower. Performance highlights include a 0-60 mph time of around 3.5 seconds with the PDK transmission and a top speed nearing 190 mph.

For exotic car collectors, the 911 Carrera GTS 991 holds appeal due to its blend of performance and exclusivity, with special editions like the limited-run GTS Club Coupe (60 units for the U.S. market in 2015) adding to its rarity. Values have remained strong, with well-maintained examples often appreciating, especially for manual transmission models or low-mileage specimens. Its historical significance lies in bridging the transition from naturally aspirated to turbocharged engines in the 911 lineup, reflecting Porsche’s modern engineering evolution.
