KEY FACTS
- An exceptionally rare example of the most powerful 997-generation model, presented in superb condition with some discerning upgrades.
- Its engine is a twin-turbocharged 3.6-litre flat-six engine, producing 612bhp and 516lb-ft of torque, driving the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transmission.
- It has covered only around 60 miles since its last service, when a full rev check was also carried out.
EQUIPMENT AND OPTIONS
- Finished in black, the bodywork features the carbon-fibre front wings, carbon-fibre bonnet, and the substantial rear wing. It rides on the original centre-lock wheels, with yellow brake callipers around the ceramic discs.
- While it left the factory with electrically adjustable Adaptive Sport Seats, the vendor had these swapped to genuine OEM carbon-fibre bucket seats by Porsche Centre Teesside after they acquired the car in early 2020. At the same time, the steering wheel, gear knob, and handbrake lever were also changed to genuine Porsche Alcantara items.
- Accompanying the car are the original tools, books, brochure, spare keys and fobs, and also a car cover.
