Porsche 911 Carrera 2008 for sale

If you are looking for a pure, analog driving experience, this 2008 Porsche 911 997 Carrera is exactly where you want to be. While the "S" models often get the limelight, the 3.6-liter 997 Carrera is widely considered the sweet spot by enthusiasts – it's rev-happy, incredibly balanced, and feels slightly more nimble on its feet. This particular 997 is a masterclass in how to spec a Porsche 911: manual, low miles, and focused entirely on the connection between the driver and the asphalt.

List of some notable equipment:

Manual Gearbox (The way a 997 Carrera should be)

• 19-inch Carrera Sport wheels (Original factory delivery)
• Sport Exhaust System (Switchable valves for that flat-six howl)
• PASM (Active suspension to stiffen the ride on demand)
• Short Shifter (Factory XCZ option for bolt-action feel)
• Sport Seats in Black Leather
• Sport Chrono Package
• Black Alcantara Headlining
• Aluminium Shift Knob & Handbrake
• Sport Steering Wheel
• Sunroof

Exterior: This 911 is finished in Arctic Silver Metallic, a color that defines the Porsche 997 era. What makes this car truly stand out to a collector is the condition; it is still in its original first paint and looks superb. It sits perfectly on its original 19-inch Carrera Sport wheels, which are arguably the best-looking wheels Porsche made for the 997 generation. The overall look is "classy-spec" no loud wings or decals, just the clean, iconic lines of a narrow-body Carrera that will never go out of style.

Interior: Inside, this 997 feels excellent. It’s loaded with the right touches, like the Black Alcantara headlining and the tactile Aluminium gear lever. The Black Leather Sport Seats hold you exactly where you need to be, and the interior shows very little wear, reflecting the low 52,000km on the odometer. It’s a great place to spend time, featuring the Sport Chrono clock on the dash and the timeless black dials.

Engine and Mechanics: Mechanically, this Porsche 911 997 is ready for the season. The 3.6 engine runs perfectly and has been well maintained. Because it was delivered with the Short Shifter, the gear changes are incredibly tight and satisfying. You also get the best of both worlds. With the PASM suspension, you can keep it comfortable for a cruise or stiffen it up for a backroad blast at the click of a button. Best of all? The factory sport exhaust sounds incredible with the valves open, giving you that raw 911 soundtrack whenever you want it. It has just recently been serviced and needs nothing.

History and Documentation: The history of this 997 is as transparent as they come. Delivered new in Germany and brought to Sweden in 2010, it has been in the hands of enthusiasts ever since. The current owner has had the car since 2016, and it has been a "sunny day" car. You get a fully stamped service book, original manuals, MOT papers, and a folder of invoices to back up the 52,000km.
