This 2004 Porsche Carrera GT was built on September 23rd, 2004 in Porsche’s Leipzig factory. Painted in the stunning Porsche’s iconic GT Silver Metallic, spec’d with options included air conditioning, Porsche Online Pro CD Radio, and other items. As a U.S.-spec Carrera GT, it was originally delivered to the sunny state of Hawaii.

The Carrera GT saw a low-milage lifestyle during the past two decades. Acquired by a collector in 2016 as a part of his larger collection, the car remained in his ownership until being acquired by the latest owner in 2021. The most recent owner, known in the automotive circles as being fanatical about maintenance, decided to bring his Carrera GT in for a major service. What started as a major service in March of 2023 turned into an exacting and thorough dive through of the entire vehicle, including the replacement of the ceramic-composite clutch assembly, rear main seal, camshafts, and more. Anything and everything that needed attention was addressed, spanning 7 months in the quest for best for his Carrera GT.

In addition to the usual major service items, including oil changes, belts, spark plugs, thermostat, battery replacement, the deeper dive into the Carrera GT ensured that everything was 100% to spec. Having such access to replace many of these components only comes from when the chassis is split in two, and the owner took advantage to replace all that needed replacing. The ceramic composite clutch assembly, which requires separating the carbon fiber chassis in two and is incredibly time and skill intensive, was replaced. The engine and gearbox were removed for a valve train adjustment, which at the time upgraded Repasi camshafts were installed, set to time, and adjusted to specification. Camshaft controller hardware and upgraded DLC-coated intake camshaft locking discs were also installed. The crankshaft seal and the rear main seal were replaced. New ignition coils were installed, the brake system fluid flushed, and had new Michelin tires installed. Upon completion of this extremely detailed service In October of 2023, the Carrera GT now had a mechanical investment made to it to the tune of $105,001.82.

During his major service visit, Porsche had issued a voluntary recall in April of 2023 on Carrera GTs to address the possibility that some of the suspension components could wear prematurely. During this time parts were unavailable during the major service, which led to the Carrera GT to return to be serviced in February of 2025. During this time, both front and rear trailing arms were replaced with new, upgraded factory Porsche components. Not to waste time while in for service, the owner decided to have a minor service for the Carrera GT to be performed, which included an oil and filter change, engine air filters, 4-wheel brake fluid flush, cabin air filter, and replacement of both drive belts. A complete inspection was also performed, where additional maintenance on the starter was performed. This mechanical investment, spanning 3 months and completing in February of 2025, was $10,028.69 with 4,398 miles on the odometer.

Upon arriving at Canepa, it was hard to imagine a better-prepared Porsche Carrera GT. With such major mechanical items such as the ceramic composite clutch replacement taken care of and a major and minor service just recently completed, it gives the future owner a sense of confidence that they can put miles on without a care in the world, besides possibly getting a speeding ticket. This 2004 Porsche Carrera GT is exceptionally serviced and in exceptional condition, ready for its next owner to use all 605hp created from the 5.7L V10 engine located just inches from the passenger’s ears.

About the Porsche Carrera GT

The development of the Carrera GT can be traced back to the 911 GT1 and LMP1-98 racing cars. Due in part to the FIA and ACO rule changes in 1998, both designs had ended. Porsche at the time had planned on a new Le Mans prototype for 1999, initially intending to use a turbocharged flat-6, but was later redesigned to use a new V10 engine. The V10 was a unit secretly built by Porsche for the Footwork Formula One team in 1992, but later shelved. The engine was resurrected for the Le Mans prototype and increased in size to 5.7 liters. The project was canceled in mid-1999, mostly due to Porsche's wish to build the Cayenne SUV with involvement from Volkswagen and Audi, thus requiring engineering expertise to be pulled from the motorsports division.

Porsche did keep part of the project alive by using the 5.5 L V10 from the prototype in a concept car shown at the 2000 Paris Motor Show, mainly in an attempt to draw attention to their display. Surprising interest in the vehicle, and an influx of revenue provided from the Cayenne helped Porsche decide to produce the car, and development started on a road-legal version that would be produced in small numbers at Porsche's new manufacturing facility in Leipzig. Porsche started a production run of Carrera GTs in 2004, shipping the units with an MSRP of USD $448,000. Featuring a bespoke carbon fiber chassis, titanium suspension components, and carbon fiber bodywork, and most importantly a 5.7L naturally aspirated V10 with a 6-speed manual transmission, the Carrera GT was an immediate automotive sensation. The first Carrera GT went on sale in the United States on January 31, 2004.

Originally a production run of 1,500 cars was planned. However, Porsche announced in August 2005 that it would not continue production of the Carrera GT through to 2006, citing discontinuation was due to changing airbag regulations in the United States. As of May 6, 2006, 1,270 GT's had been manufactured, with 644 being sold in the United States.
