The 2005 Carrera S wasn't just a performance package on the standard 911, it made it a higher tier car. Coming from factory with a bigger 3.8-liter engine, Porsche Stability Management technology, larger brakes with red calipers, 19" wheels, Bi-Xenon headlights, a sports steering wheel, and aluminum interior trim were all additions included in the 911S. There is a significant difference in the standard Carrera from overall performance to future resell value. 2005 is a pivotal year in the 911's history. This is the debut of the 997 redesign that bought the 911 back to an appearance closer to the original. In fact, the fascia proved so popular, it's hard for many to tell the difference between this one and a brand new 911 coupe. I am very picky about the level of care and maintenance which shows in that the car feels and looks almost new. Just take some time to look at the Arctic Silver Metallic paint. It's a timeless color on a German sports car, and so when it's maintained this well, the Porsche becomes ageless. This is a garage kept car, driven in fair weather. The paint and body as well as the 19-inch Carrera S wheels look amazing with Carrera S wide body stance. The look of a new 911 at a fraction of the price. Porsche interiors are durable and finely crafted. With just the tight amount of shiny alloy, it's not overly flashy, and instead gives the impression of high-quality materials and craftsmanship that is worthy of the price. The black leather bucket seats are engineered to both keep you planted in the corners and comfortable on long trips. This is loaded with automatic climate control, keyless entry/alarm, cruise control, sunroof, and power everything. Because this is a modern classic, you also get modern safety features such as front airbags, side airbags, and anti-lock brakes. But even with the premium upgrades, this one continues all the great 911 traditions. So the ignition key still goes on the left, and the tachometer gets the most prominent placement as the largest gauge that boldly sits in the center. The Carrera S liquid-cooled 3.8-liter flat-six brought a significant power upgrade in 2005 with 355 horsepower and 295 pounds of torque. This coupe has its original motor, and just like the rest of the car, you can instantly tell it has been well cared for. You know this from its average of less than 3,500 miles per year, the overall condition of the car shows in its driving and look. This 911 is great for a daily driver to hammering down the backroads. The Porsche 911 is one of the best engineered sports cars around. You can see it in the details, like the flat underbelly for improved aerodynamics. You feel it on the road with an exceptionally well balanced suspension (especially for a rear-engine car.) This car needs nothing and is ready for the road. I have added a clear bra for protecting the paint as well as tinted windows and all weather mats. I have original mats that are like new and will be included. I have also added the LED lighting upgrade to the front driving lights for a great look and safety. The remainder of the car is completely stock and well maintained. There are no leaks or issues and has always been well maintained. I have owned 911s for 20 years and currently own 3 Porsches and keep my cars right and in great condition. The interior is in great condition with very minor wear if any. Body is perfect with no dings or dents. There is one light scratch under the gas fill and pictured. It is not noticeable and possibly could be buffed out. Buyer is responsible for shipping or local pick up of the car in Memphis, TN.
