Vehicle Description
Between 2011 and 2019, the 991-generation of Porsche's iconic 911
introduced some of the most significant changes in the model's
extensive history. Officially the seventh generation of 911, the
991 was completely new from the ground up, based on a longer, wider
platform with redesigned gearboxes, engines, and new styling that
beautifully evolved the 911's unbroken lineage from the original
901. With the arrival of the 991.2 in 2015, all standard Carrera
models were turbocharged, allowing Porsche to meet increasingly
stringent emissions regulations without sacrificing horsepower.
Like before, the newest 911 was offered in a wide range of flavors
and trim levels ranging fromrelatively mildtoutterly insane.
Starting with the highly capable standard Carrera at the core, the
911 performance spectrum spreads out in multiple directions. One
way leads to the mighty 911 Turbo S, with supercar performance and
all the luxury trimmings of a world-class grand tourer. The other
path leads to the hardcore, stripped-out and caged GT3 and GT2 RS
models - racers for the road with mind-boggling levels of grip and
flat-out pace for the track day enthusiast. However, without
discounting the thundering Turbo or manic GT3, many aficionados
believe the sweet spot rests somewhere between those two extremes,
specifically, with the Carrera GTS. As featured here, the 2017 911
Carrera GTS combines the best elements of the entire 911 range in a
single, driver-focused model. It has the pure, unadorned shape of
the standard Carrera but is slightly pumped-up with wider flares
and more aggressive visual cues. This car, in 997.2 guise, packs a
3.0-liter turbocharged flat-six with 450 horsepower - that figure
achieved through sports exhaust, larger turbos, and tuning
wizardry. It also features the Sports Chrono package, sport seats,
PASM adjustable suspension, and other cherry-picked performance
bits from the Carrera option sheet. The GTS is good for an
astounding 190 miles per hour at the top end (just nine mph shy of
the 959!), yet the well-judged chassis setup ensures much more of
that performance and deft handling is accessible by mere mortals on
real-life roads. This fantastic Miami Blue coupe has covered just
1,500 miles from new and is equipped in the purest, most
driver-focused specification available on a GTS. This 2wd model
(AWD was optional) features the highly desirable seven-speed manual
gearbox and sunroof delete, saving considerable weight and ensuring
blistering performance on the road or the racetrack. Other
special-order options include the fabulous Miami Blue paint,
20-inch Carrera S wheels, black leather interior with Alcantara
delete, heated/ventilated 14-way adjustable sports seats, GT Sport
steering wheel, and Bose surround-sound audio. It is offered in
superb condition from the 2nd owner, accompanied by original books,
window sticker, Porsche COA, and a clean Carfax report. As expected
from such a low mileage example, the paintwork and exterior trim
are exceptional. The silver-finish Carrera S wheels are superb and
feature excellent Pirelli P-Zero tires all around. Likewise, the
black interior is essentially like new, with beautiful black
leather and carpets complemented by dark brushed-alloy trim.
Buttons, switches, and controls are all in excellent order, and the
alloy trim is virtually unmarked. This car's enormous performance
is balanced by an array of luxury niceties like heated/ventilated
seats, satnav, and Bose audio to ensure maximum comfort in all
conditions, whether you're on an all-day road trip or exploring the
outer limits at a track day. It is no surprise that this ultra-low
mileage Porsche needs nothing to enjoy from the first press of the
starter. It runs beautifully and sounds superb - with the perfect
balance of aggression and subtlety from the factory sports exhaust.
This impeccable, collector-quality 911 GTS is undoubtedly a future
classic Porsche, seamlessly blending touring and sport into one
incredibly well-rounded package. Offers welcome and trades
