2007 Porsche 997.1 4S
With the latest type 991 generation attracting flak for its electrically assisted steering as Porsche stare at a future of turbo-charged fuel-efficient engines, 997 prices have started to harden. In short, there’s never been a better time to buy.
The ultimate S model featured the new PASM switchable adaptive damping as standard, variable-ratio steering and PSM stability control, then there was the optional Sport Chrono pack, which as well as the retro-style dash-mounted stopwatch offered a Sport button, which firms the throttle and the damping while loosening PSM’s reins.
“It’s a seriously quick car and it’s the one that most enthusiasts want” Evo Magazine, Feb 18, 2013, on the 997 Carrera S Buyers Guide.
The S also offered extra top-end power and mid-range torque from the larger 3.8-litre engine, but also for the improved spec – bigger brakes, 19inch wheels and Xenon lights.
Immaculate example of last of the small 911’s but with the iconic 3.8 normally aspirated engine / this style of a small car with a big engine are simply never going to be made again
Original clean and truly beautiful condition / was sold previously by Duttons in Melbourne
Expensive options including chrono and sports settings, as new Michelin PS4 and factory sport wheels
Full Porsche service history - records include details of extended Porsche Warranty, renewed 3 times up to May 2014 where it was covered by the Porsche dealer warranty so no issue would not have been addressed in the first 7 years
Previously sold by Duttons in Melbourne it is believed to be a 3 owner vehicle.
It presents more or less faultlessly and has just been serviced including 4 new Michelin and a wheel alignment
Everything works and the interior and exterior are virtually unmarked and it certainly has been serviced to within an inch of its life. Get in and drive with total confidence that you have here a clean, original and outstanding example of this model.
