The 997 Was First Offered By Porsche In 2004 And Was To Be The Perfect Replacement For The Much Loved 996 Carrera Model, With Both Models Looking Rather Similar, However This New Introduction Was To Offer A Revised Body, A Healthy Increase Of BHP And Improved Porsche Technology. The First 997 Model Ran Until The Back End Of 2009, Until The Factory Introduced The Fabulous 997 Generation II Model, Which Included A Larger 3.8 Engine Rather Than The 3.6, That Offered Clients A Rather Healthy 385 Brake Horse Power Output, An All New Dual Clutch PDK Automatic Gear Box, Revised Front And Rear Headlight Clusters, Larger Air Intakes To The Front Bumper And New Factory Options List, That Would Offer New Buyers Leading World Class Technology. Of Course Like Past Fabulous 911 Models, Porsche Always Wanted To Be Ahead Of The Game Introducing Brand New Versions To Its Exciting Range And In 2011 The Porsche 997 3.8 GTS Was Showcased To The World, With This To Be The Last Hurrah For The 997 Generation 911 And Was Never Going To Disappoint Those Lucky Enough To Get Their Hands On One Of The Small Numbers Produced. The Water Cooled, Quad Cam Flat Six Engine Displaced 3.8 Litre Engine Producing A More Than Healthy 408 BHP With 310lb ft Of Torque, Which Would Comfortably Accelerate From 0-62 MPH In An Astonishing 4.6 Seconds, Would Further Climb To A Massive Top Speed Of 190 MPH And Would Be Seen As The Ultimate Driving Experience, As The GTS Was A Proper Wide Tracked Bodied 911 With Rear Wheel Drive Super Car Fun Capabilities. During The Time On The Stuttgart Production Line, There Are Reports That Just 6747 GTS Cars Had Been Made As A Total Worldwide, With The Only 1813 Vehicles Made Globally As The 997 GTS Convertible 2WD And If We Fast Forward To 2018, These Low Number Values Mean That We Have Another 911 Modern Day Classic In The Making, With Many New Enthusiastic Global Collectors Wanting To Acquire One Of These Limited 997 Cars, With The Future Value Growth To Be Inevitable As Time Moves On. The Main Factory Option At The Time For Clients To Decide On, Was The Fabulous PDK Or Porsche Doppelkupplung Automatic Transmission, With This Sensational Box To Be Slightly Quicker On Take Off From The Standard Six Speed Manual With The 0-62 MPH Time In Just 4.2 Seconds, Meaning That The Porsche 997 GTS PDK Was The Ultimate Car To Aim For And Still Is Viewed As Being The Ultimate Car For Today's Market Place.
This Lovely Example Was First Supplied By Porsche Centre Reading In The July Of 2011 And Over The Six And A Half Years Has Only Had The Three Registered Keepers, Which In The World Of Porsche Is Still Viewed As Being Low To Find. The Current Mileage Reading Is 57796 Miles, Which If We Break This Down Roughly Works Out At About 8900 Miles Per Annum, However Regardless Of This Reading The Vehicle Has Been Maintained And Cared For To A High And Exacting Standard With Past Historical Porsche And Porsche Specialist Service Visits Logged At 21021, 39969 & 53786 Miles, With The Last Completed By P.C.T Porsche Specialists In Coventry In The March Of 2017, Meaning That The Next Scheduled Service Will Be Required In The March Of 2019. Once Sold This GTS Will Be Presented To The Next Lucky Custodian With The Entire Booklet Pack Set, A Full And Detailed Factory Build Card Listing All Those All Important And Expensive Options, A Fully Cleared Hpi Certificate And A Fully Functional Key Set, All Ready And In Place For That Next Person To Enjoy And Cherish During Their Own Time Of Ownership.
A Remarkable 997 GTS Convertible.....
