For Sale at Auction: 2005 Porsche 911 in Costa Mesa, California

Chassis No. WP0CB29975S675649

Finished in non-metallic Black over Black full leather and a Black power soft top, this 2005 Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet presents in a classic and sophisticated specification, showing fewer than 25,000 miles accumulated under two long-term private owners. Produced in the final model year of 996 Turbo production-a send-off immediately preceding the arrival of the 997 in 2006-and optioned with the highly sought-after six-speed manual transmission, it combines the X50 Power Kit, all-wheel drive, Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB), and exclusive interior appointments as standard, making this Turbo S Cabriolet the ultimate open 911 of its era.

Power comes from the twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter "Mezger" flat-six, factory-rated at 444 horsepower and 457 lb-ft of torque courtesy of the X50 kit's revised engine management software and uprated turbochargers and intercoolers. Braking is handled by PCCB with yellow-painted six-piston front and four-piston rear calipers, complemented by Porsche Stability Management and an automatic brake differential. The exterior showcases the Turbo's signature wide-body silhouette-wider rear bodywork, rear air intakes, revised bumper covers, and a speed-activated rear spoiler-complemented by 18-inch Turbo Twist wheels mounted with new Bridgestone Potenza RE-71RS tires installed in February 2026.

The cabin is trimmed in Black full leather extending to the dashboard and door panels, with the seat inserts trimmed in custom heritage-inspired pepita houndstooth cloth. Amenities include heated, power-adjustable front seats with lumbar support and driver-seat memory, automatic climate control, a wind deflector, and cruise control, Porsche Communication Management with navigation, and a CD stereo with remote disc changer.

The accompanying CARFAX Vehicle History Report indicates that the car was initially delivered through Porsche Exchange in Highland Park, Illinois, remaining in the state for the majority of its life. The Turbo S changed hands to its second private owner in 2007, with the report noting routine service through Napleton Westmont Porsche in subsequent years. Acquired by the consigning dealer in 2024, the car now shows 24,650 miles at cataloging and presents in wonderful condition commensurate with its relatively low mileage. It is accompanied by its owner's manuals, tools, jack, and wind deflector.
