Vehicle Description
2008 Porsche 911 Turbo (997.1) 6-Speed Cabriolet: 1 of the
approximate 848 997.1 Turbo Cabriolets to have landed in North
America with the 2008 model year designation featuring a manual
transmission and in its configuration of cabriolet, manual, model
year and market region, it's 1 of an estimated 3 to have been
specified in Slate Grey Metallic with a cabin completed in
Black/Terracotta Leather. The 997.1 Turbo's Significance: It's the
last 911 Turbo (and Turbo convertible) to house the iconic 911
GT1-derived Mezger twin-turbocharged engine in conjunction with a
manual transmission. The 997.2 Turbos feature an all-new engine,
while the 991 and now 992 turbos are only seen in PDK. Though the
latter cars are more dynamic, powerful, and are even more
technological wonders than the 997.1 Turbo, the Turbos preceding
the 997.1 Turbo are larger in size, don't feature the sought-after
favorable sizing and mechanicalness as offered by the 997.1
generation Turbo. The 997.1 turbo is very much a new-age Porsche
959 with heightened usability for everyday use and is that car that
will not be replicated again. This superlative and very unique
Turbo cabriolet displays an odometer reading of an incredibly low
1,XXX miles, shows a Clean CARFAX Report, benefits from a recent
and complete servicing rendered by Ryan Friedman Motorcars'
in-house Porsche Tech with 30 years of expertise (servicing
specifics are available), and featured an original MSRP of $159,750

viewing the Turbo's aerodynamically optimized body, your presence
is welcomed by its tantalizing Slate Grey Metallic finish, a
gorgeous grey hue that highlights the Turbo's muscular hunches and
streamlined body beautifully and when coupled with the interior's
spectacular Terracotta Leather in conjunction with the front seats
high-gloss metallic covered seatbacks looks out of this world and
when situated underneath direct lighting (both the seat backs and
exterior's paint) the appeal drastically heightens; a soft top
finished in black; front bumper boasting integrated and
aesthetically unobstructive headlight washers, intake duct
incorporated LED turn signals and compact fog lights that are aptly
stationed on the bumper's outermost region; Bi-Xenon headlights; a
sleek gas lid that's understatedly incorporated into the right
fender; 19-inch forged alloy Turbo wheels; the rear's pronounced,
muscular fenders that are accentuated by the model's signature air
intakes; a bi-plane rear spoiler featuring an automatically

exhaust outlets that subtly protrudes from the distinctive,
twin-vented, rear bumper. Just before slipping inside of its
winning Black/Terracotta Leather adorned cabin, you're first met by
stainless steel door sills with illuminated 'turbo' insignia, and
when inside you can expect to find light-colored twin-stitching and
aluminum/brushed aluminum/metallic-coated surfacing on select areas
with carpeting completed in Terracotta, center console tunnel
finished in Slate Grey, the center compartment lid boasting an
embossed 'PORSCHE' logo and supple leather that extends onto the
upper dashboard and door areas; one of the first things you'll
notice are the attractive brushed-metallic covered areas such as on
the door pulls and the area that surrounds it, door handles and
compartment lid areas as well as on the parking brake handle. The
driver is faced with a multi-functional 3-spoke steering wheel;
Carrara White finished instrumentation dials; a centrally located
dash-mounted SportChrono dial also with a Carrara White finish;
5.8-inch PCM display; the dazzling, 6-speed shifter offering
clear-cut throws and possessing a gear lever design that's native
to the Turbo model. Front occupants are embraced by perforated
Adaptive Sport seats featuring an embossed Porsche Crest on each
headrest, memory settings for the driver, heating functionality for
both occupants, and can expect in-cabin audio playback via the BOSE
Surround Sound System, featuring 12-speakers.For more information
