This 2008 Porsche 911 Turbo cabriolet was specified in Basalt Black Metallic over black full leather, and it was optioned with the Sport Chrono Package and supple leather seat inserts. It is powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.6L flat-six that drives all four wheels via a six-speed manual transaxle, and additional features include a black soft top, 20″ DPE forged alloy wheels, bi-xenon headlights, Porsche Communication Management with navigation, a Bose sound system, a remote six-disc CD changer, and automatic climate control. The car has 11k miles following registration history in Florida and Minnesota. This 997.1 Turbo cabriolet is now offered in Minnesota on dealer consignment with a clean Florida title.
The car is finished in Basalt Black Metallic (C9Z) and features a black convertible soft top. Additional features include bi-xenon headlights, fog lights, rain-sensing windshield wipers, side air intakes, and flared quarter panels. The Carfax report notes damage in a January 2014 entry, that reportedly resulted in the rear bumper cover being refinished.
The 20″ DPE forged alloy wheels are mounted with Hankook Ventus V12 Evo tires measuring 235/30 up front and 305/25 at the rear. Braking is handled by Porsche-branded six- and four-piston front and rear calipers over 13.8″ rotors. The car is equipped with Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) as well as Porsche Stability Management (PSM) with an automatic brake differential (ABD).
The cabin features seating surfaces trimmed in black leather with supple seat inserts and Porsche crests debossed in the front seat headrests. Leather trim extends to the dashboard, center console, and door panels. Additional amenities include driver-seat memory settings, Porsche Communication Management with navigation, a Bose sound system, a remote six-disc CD changer, automatic climate control, a wind deflector, cruise control, and illuminated stainless-steel door sill guards.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a central tachometer and a 225-mph speedometer as well as gauges for oil temperature, oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel level. The optional Sport Chrono Package added a stopwatch atop the dashboard. The digital odometer indicates 11k miles, approximately 10k of which were added under current ownership.
The twin-turbocharged and intercooled 3.6-liter Mezger flat-six was factory rated at 480 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque. The Sport Chrono Package allows the 997.1 Turbo to overboost for up to 10 seconds, increasing peak rated torque to 505 lb-ft. The battery was replaced in April 2024.
Power is sent to all four wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle.
The Carfax report shows the aforementioned damage as well as an open recall.
