Reserve Removed: 2021 Porsche 911 Carrera S 7-Speed

This 2021 Porsche 911 Carrera S is a 419-original-mile sports coupe, presented as one of only 50 of its kind optioned with a factory-issued Aerokit and reported to be one of 2 units in late summer production outfitted with an extended range 23.7-gallon fuel tank, heated and ventilated seats, a glass roof, and a limited-slip differential. Ordered by a prominent powertrain and collision specialist from Volkswagen North America, this like-new eighth-generation 911 receives power from a 443-horsepower rear-mounted 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged boxer six mated to a 7-speed manual transmission and rear wheel steering. The seller reports that this Carrera was special-ordered in August 2020 and delivered in June 2021, offering equipment including the Sport Chrono Package, Premium Package, Sport Exhaust System, among many others. Finished in Gentian Blue Metallic over a two-tone Black and Mojave Beige leather interior, this 992-Series Carrera is now offered with a Brumos Collection commemorative medallion, a clean CARFAX report, build sheets, and a clear Michigan title in the seller’s name.

The 911 two-door high-performance sportscar dates back to 1964 and has evolved through the subsequent decades with various changes to drivetrains and technology while retaining a similar design language, market position, and identity. The eighth generation of the 911 was dubbed the 992 and first debuted for the 2019 model year, displaying wider rear-wheel arches, aluminum architecture, and a new rear bumper compared to its predecessor. This example from 2021 is painted Gentian Blue Metallic (1A) and came factory-outfitted with a $6,910 Aerokit. The exterior offers a front air dam, side air intakes with active cooling, recessed pop-out door handles, power-folding sideview mirrors, and an active rear spoiler with an integrated LED brake lamp. Lighting is provided by automatic LED headlights and daytime running lights, with three-dimensional LED taillights at the rear. A Sport Exhaust system is equipped with black-finished dual tailpipes at the rear.

Aluminum five-spoke Carrera S-specific wheels are sized 21” at the rear and 20” up front, having been mounted to summer tires at all four corners. Braking is handled by four-wheel disc brakes with red-finished six-piston calipers up front and four-piston calipers in the rear, connected to a Porsche Stability Management (PSM) system with anti-lock capability. The suspension features Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), and is comprised of MacPherson strut front setup with a multi-link rear, featuring anti-roll bars at both axles. Porsche’s Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV+) uses an electronically controlled differential lock with variable torque distribution to provide driver assistance. Steering is aided by electromechanical variable-ratio power steering in combination with optional rear wheel steering, allowing aiding for the vehicle to have a tighter steering radius at lows speeds and more stability at higher speeds.

The interior conveys a 2+2 seating configuration, upholstered with power-adjustable heated and ventilated Mojave Beige leather bucket seats and embossing, accented in Mojave Beige throughout the cabin. The theme is accentuated by matching door panels, dash, carpeting, and floor mats, as well as brushed aluminum trim inlays. The multi-function steering wheel is leather-wrapped and heated, and infotainment is delivered from a 10.9” display with navigation and Porsche Communication Management (PCM). This interface offers connectivity to Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, SiriusXM, leveraging an eight-speaker Burmester sound stage, with an amplifier and digital signal processing. Additional features include auto stop/start, dual-zone automatic climate control, a particle filter, ParkAssist, cruise control, Keyless Go, a HomeLink programmable garage door opener, a 12-volt socket in the passenger footwell, power windows with one-touch down, and a heated rear window.

Instrumentation includes a centrally-mounted tachometer and two 7” TFT displays. This 911 was optioned with the Sport Chrono package which allows the driver to view a range of driving statistics. The digital odometer reads 419 miles, which is a true original reading per the seller. 

The rear-mounted 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged boxer six has four valves per cylinder and is constructed with an aluminum block and cylinder heads and is water-cooled with thermal management. The powertrain features VarioCam Plus variable valve timing with two-stage lift on the intake side and integrated dry-sump lubrication. Factory ratings of 443 horsepower and 390 lb-ft of torque were applied to this engine, and power is directed to the rear wheels via a rear axle steering option and a 7-speed manual transmission.
