Used Porsche 997 For Sale
Even though it’s only the third most recent generation of the 911, the 997 911 generation is an iconic part of the history of the world’s favorite sports car. Its feats include introducing the PDK transmission and even making a fan out of the otherwise critical Jeremy Clarkson. It hasn’t been very long, but already we know that the Porsche 911 997 is a future classic, if it isn’t a classic already, because of its performance, handling, and timeless looks. Getting your hands on a Porsche 997 for sale is an incredible way to get your hands on a highly capable, luxurious performance car, with plenty of car enthusiast cred for staying true to the legend of the Porsche 911.
If you’re interested in a used 997 Porsche, there are two main chronological categories of cars to choose from. A 997.1 for sale from 2004-2008 will cost roughly anywhere between 30,000 and 200,000 dollars, depending on miles and edition of the car, whereas a 997.2 for sale from 2009-2012 will roughly be between 50,000 and nearly 400,000 dollars, also depending on the miles and the specific model. The differences are in the optional Tiptronic transmission being replaced by the PDK, direct fuel injection, revised infotainment, and other subtle changes in the design and look of the car. The 997 manual transmission that came standard with all cars is a six-speed, and the PDK dual-clutch, or the Tiptronic, depending on the generation of the specific 997, was optional with certain models.
One of the most iconic models of the 997 is the 911 Turbo. With all-wheel drive and two BorgWarner turbochargers that were new for Porsche when they were introduced in the 911 Turbo, the 997 Turbo was ahead of its time in performance capability. Expect to reach 60 mph in less than four seconds, and if that’s not enough, you can push the 997 Turbo to reach nearly 200 miles per hour at its limits. To this day, a Porsche 997 Turbo for sale is not only a formidable performance car or a sophisticated driving machine. It’s one of the greatest cars to wear the Porsche badge.
Any 997 guarantees luxury, fun, and performance to boot. It’s a beautiful 911 that delivers on every front a 911 ever has: being a spirited car that will absolutely never bore its driver. Now is a better time than ever to get your hands on one of these, as they are being recognized as one of the greats in the 911 world, even this early into their retirement.
