The Porsche 911 Carrera S 991, part of the 991 generation of the iconic 911 lineup, was produced between 2011 and 2019. This generation marked a significant evolution for the 911, with a longer wheelbase, improved interior technology, and a focus on efficiency. While exact production numbers for the Carrera S variant are not publicly disclosed, the 991 generation as a whole saw over 200,000 units produced across all trims, with the Carrera S being a popular high-performance model among enthusiasts.
Equipped with a 3.8-liter flat-six engine in early models (later upgraded to a 3.0-liter twin-turbo in the 991.2 facelift from 2016), the Carrera S delivered between 400 and 420 horsepower, achieving 0-60 mph in as little as 4.1 seconds with the PDK dual-clutch transmission. Its rear-engine layout and refined handling make it a standout for collectors. The 991 generation is also notable for being the last to offer a naturally aspirated engine in base Carrera models before the full transition to turbocharging. Limited editions, like the 50th Anniversary model, add to its appeal, with values holding strong in the used market, often ranging from $60,000 to $100,000 depending on condition and rarity.
