Overview

Offered here is a 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera S Coupe, finished in striking Arctic Silver Metallic over Black Partial Leather. Equipped with an air-cooled 3.6L flat-six and 6-speed manual transmission, this U.S.-specification example was factory-ordered with desirable options including the Power Seat Package, AM/FM stereo with CD player, 18-inch Technology wheels, stainless steel exhaust pipes, and aluminum/leather shifter and brake handle. As a Carrera S, it benefits from the widebody styling of the Turbo models, while retaining the naturally aspirated character of the air-cooled flat-six.
 

This car has had just three owners from new. The first kept the car in Texas for two years before selling it to a PCA Concours Judge, who maintained it with great care for the majority of its life. The current owner acquired the car five years ago and has continued its stewardship, ensuring it remains both mechanically sound and cosmetically impressive. The documented ownership history highlights the car’s well-preserved and enthusiast-focused lineage.
 

Significant recent work includes a complete engine reseal in 2024, performed within the last 500 miles, ensuring strong reliability for its next custodian. In 2025, the alarm immobilizer was professionally deactivated for ease of use. Accompanied by its Porsche Certificate of Authenticity and presented in excellent condition, this Carrera S represents an opportunity to acquire one of the most desirable variants of the final generation of air-cooled 911s.
