The 997 marked a significant revamp of the Porsche 911 lineup. While retaining much of the 996’s underlying platform, the 997’s most apparent improvements included a return to traditional 911 styling cues and a more refined cabin. A sixth-generation Turbo model was introduced in 2006 featuring more aggressive bodywork; a 480 hp, 3.6-liter turbocharged flat-six; and all-wheel drive.

Finished in Carrara White over a Sand Beige full leather interior, this 2009 Porsche 997 Turbo was delivered new through Bert Smith Porsche of St. Petersburg, Florida. Highly optioned with its original window sticker indicating an MSRP of $142,915, additional extras included a Tiptronic S transmission, heated front seats with ventilation, a Bluetooth phone interface, and the Sport Chrono Package. Porsche Exclusive options comprise a painted spoiler lip, front air intakes, and rear apron, along with a thicker steering wheel, red taillights, deviating carpet, and Porsche crests on the headrests. HRE wheels, built-in radar detector, and an exhaust system are tasteful aftermarket additions. One of 583 coupes manufactured for 2009, this Turbo is from the final year of the Hans Mezger-designed turbo engine and features the updated Porsche Communication Management (PCM) 3.0. Displaying a mere 109 miles on its odometer when catalogued, this Turbo presents in nearly time capsule condition today. Nevertheless, the major 12-year/12,000-mile service was performed in May 2023 by Porsche Carlsbad in California. Offered with books, tools, delivery accessories, and service records, this 997 Turbo will be difficult to duplicate.
