For Sale: 2008 Porsche 911 in Anaheim, California

The 2008 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet drives like a dream, handles corners with near perfection, and offers efficient power from its flat six-cylinder engine. The upgraded Bose audio system produces excellent sound that adds to the awesome exhaust note. Taut became our word of the day when we were driving the 2008 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet. There is nothing loose about this car--it goes exactly where you point it and evenly distributes power when you push the accelerator. Its exterior lines are simple, with no excessively flared fenders or gaudy spoilers, maintaining the original 911 look. Our 911 model gets a lot of modifiers in this incarnation: the 4 means all-wheel-drive, the S marks it as a sport version, and Cabriolet is a fancy word for convertible. But the 911 is more than just a racecar--it also offers cabin gadgets. Befitting its more than $100,000 price tag, the Bose stereo system produces excellent audio. On the downside, the navigation system only offers basic functionality, while the hands-free phone system is inconvenient, to say the least. Porsche maintains its tradition by using a 3.8-liter, boxer-style six-cylinder engine that's mounted in back on the 2008 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet. This engine produces 355 horsepower at 6,600rpm and 295 foot-pounds of torque at 4,600rpm, rocketing the lightweight 911 to 60 mph in 4.7 seconds, according to Porsche. We found ample available acceleration in just about any gear, at just about any speed. Although, because of the smaller torque figure, we had to give it significantly more gas when climbing hills, unlike some cars that walk right up inclines Porsche refined this engine nicely and built it perfectly for this car. While other sports car manufacturers add cylinders, the 911's six cylinders give the right kind of power when you keep the rpm's between 4,000rpm and 6,000rpm and use the gearbox to power the car through corners. One advantage of the engine, particularly relevant these days, is its fuel economy. The EPA rates the 911 Carrera 4S at 16 mpg city and 24 mpg highway 2008 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S 2dr Cpe Features And Specs YEAR 2021 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 STYLE, CONFIGURATION, ENGINE OPTIONS Select Style Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet Porsche 911 Targa Porsche 911 Carrera TRIM Select Trim , 911 2dr Cpe Carrera , 911 2dr Cpe Carrera 4 , 911 2dr Cpe Carrera S , 911 2dr Cpe Carrera 4S , OVERVIEW 911 2dr Cpe Carrera 4S Package Includes PRICE STARTING AT $90,560 Vehicle EPA Classification Mini-Compact Drivetrain All Wheel Drive Engine Engine Order Code NA Engine Type and Required Fuel Gas Flat 6-cyl Displacement (liters/cubic inches) 3.8L/233 Fuel System EFI Maximum Horsepower @ RPM 355 @ 6600 Maximum Torque @ RPM 295 @ 4600 Cooling System Capacity (quarts) NA Transmission Transmission Order Code NA Transmission Description Manual w/OD Number of Transmission Speeds 6 First Gear Ratio (:1) 3.91 Second Gear Ratio (:1) 2.32 Third Gear Ratio (:1) 1.61 Fourth Gear Ratio (:1) 1.28 Fifth Gear Ratio (:1) 1.08 Sixth Gear Ratio (:1) 0.88 Reverse Ratio (:1) 3.59 Final Drive Axle Ratio (:1) 3.44 Clutch Size 9.45 Fuel Economy and Range EPA Battery Range (miles) NA EPA Greenhouse Gas Score NA CO2 Emissions, 15K mi/year (tons) NA Range, city/highway (miles) 287.30 / 388.70 EPA Fuel Economy, combined/city/highway (mpg) N/A / 17 / 23 EPA Fuel Economy Equivalent (for hybrid and electric vehicles), combined/city/highway (MPGe) N/A / N/A / N/A Fuel Tank Fuel Capacity / Gas Tank Size 16.9 Aux Fuel Tank Capacity (gallons) NA Exterior Dimensions Wheelbase (inches) 92.5 Length (inches) 175.6 Width, without mirrors (inches) 71.2 Height (inches) 51.2 Front Track Width (inches) 58.58 Rear Track Width (inches) 60.94 Minimum Ground Clearance (inches) NA Liftover Height (inches) NA Interior Dimensions Passenger / Seating Capacity 4 Total Passenger Volume (cubic feet) NA Front Head Room (inches) NA Front Leg Room (inches) NA Front Shoulder Room (inches) NA Front Hip Room (inches) NA Second Row Head Room (inches) NA Second Row Leg Room (inches) NA Second Row Shoulder Room (inches) NA Second Row Hip Room (inches) NA Cargo Area Dimensions Trunk Space (cubic feet) 4.8 Steering Steering Type Pwr Rack & Pinion Steering Ratio (:1) NA Turns, lock to lock NA Turning Diameter / Radius, curb to curb (feet) NA Turning Diameter / Radius, wall to wall (feet) NA Suspension Front Suspension Type MacPherson Strut Rear Suspension Type Multi-Link Front Shock Absorber Diameter (mm) NA Rear Shock Absorber Diameter (mm) NA Front Anti-Roll Bar Diameter (inches) NA Rear Anti-Roll Bar Diameter (inches) NA Brakes Brake Type Pwr Anti-Lock-Braking System 4-Wheel Front Brake Rotors, diameter x thickness (inches) 13.00 x 1.34 Rear Brake Rotors, diameter x thickness (inches) 13.00 x 1.10 Rear Drums, diameter x width (inches) NA Wheels and Tires Front Wheel Size (inches) 19 x 8 Front Wheel Material Aluminum Front Tire Size P235/35ZR19 Rear Wheel Size (inches) 19 x 11 Rear Wheel Material Aluminum Rear Tire Size P295/30ZR19 Spare Wheel Size (inches) NA Spare Wheel Material NA Spare Tire Size NA
