The Appeal

The 997.2 Carrera 4 GTS sat at the top of the 997 range, pairing the naturally aspirated 3.8-litre flat-six with the wider Turbo body, all-wheel drive, and a suite of performance enhancements. As the final evolution of the 997 before the 991 generation arrived, the GTS has become an increasingly sought-after proposition among Porsche enthusiasts.

This 2012 right-hand drive convertible is finished in metallic black with leather and Alcantara electric sports seats. It benefits from a strong factory specification and has covered 103,000 miles with Porsche and independent Porsche specialist service history, detailed in the listing below. The vendor states that the car looks and drives as though it has covered half its recorded mileage. The MOT runs to March 2027 and is free from advisories.
