2005 Porsche 911 Carrera S on 2040-cars
Antioch, Tennessee, United States
If you have any questions or would like to view the car in person please email me at: lyndsaylpperkoski@ukartists.com .
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.

Porsche has doubled US sales to women [w/videos]
Wed, 21 Aug 2013Porsche is having a good sales year in the US, with 25,129 vehicles delivered year-to-date coming off the automaker's best July sales ever. That's a 31-percent increase over the same period last year (19,253 deliveries). With year-to-date Panamera sales a surprising 36 percent lower than last year, what possibly could be driving Porsche's sales surge? If you answered Cayman and Boxster sales, you're right. But dealerships are noticing another factor: more women are coming in to buy Porsches, CNBC reports, the bulk of whom picked up new Cayenne SUVs. The German automaker's sales to women in the US have more than doubled in the past two years, increasing from 7 percent to 15 percent. This has helped year-to-date Cayenne sales reach 11,082 - 31 percent higher than the same time last year.
Porsche executives have been trying to tap into the women's market, as evidenced in part by the company's move to pick professional tennis player Maria Sharapova as a brand ambassador. Porsche maintains it has not moved to dramatically change its brand image, but it has shown a number of ads in recent years that uncharacteristically emphasize its vehicles' practicality under the "Engineered for Magic. Everyday" banner - some featuring female drivers.
Be sure to watch CNBC's video report on Porsche's female movement below - you'll also find one of the aforementioned Engineered For Magic ads as well as an interesting case study video on the campaign from ad agency Cramer-Krasselt.
Watch onboard video of the Porsche 918 Spyder's record 'Ring lap
Tue, 10 Sep 2013"Pics or it didn't happen!" You could almost hear the Internet shouting this when news started to trickle in about a sub-seven-minute Nürburgring lap by the new Porsche 918 Spyder. Well, after an official press release, which we ran earlier today, we have your "pics." Moving pics, to be more exact. Porsche has released on-board footage of the 6:57 lap.
The video, which runs about eight-and-a-half minutes, and shows the 918 from inside the car on a flying lap of the German track. Perhaps what's remarkable is just how undramatic it all looks. Sure, there's some sawing at the wheel from test driver Marc Lieb (one of three testers, including legendary rally king Walter Röhrl), but he makes wrangling the Martini-liveried 918 look kind of easy.
Take a look down below for the full, on-board video, and then click over and read our initial write-up from earlier this morning and take a glance at the more stylized video that Porsche originally posted.
Porsche Cayman GT4 looks sexy, rapid in the nude
Mon, Jan 5 2015Porsche doesn't officially have a name for its more hardcore version of the Cayman, yet. The speculation is that the coupe is called the GT4 as a little brother to the 911 GT3. However, the German sports car maker apparently is not interested in keeping the model's looks much of a secret because these latest shots show it without a hint of camouflage to speak of. The GT4 reportedly takes the GT3's ethos of more power, less weight and stickier-than-glue handling and brings it all to the Cayman. As these photos show, there's a much lower air dam up front with a cooling vent at the tip of the hood. Larger wheels are another obvious addition and are likely shod with some very sticky rubber. At the back, there's a double spoiler combining a wing and a ducktail. The power and gearbox for the GT4 remains a mystery, though. The rumor is that it uses a tuned version of the 3.4-liter flat-six in the Cayman S and GTS to make between 370 and 400 horsepower. A similar overhaul of the Boxster might be on the way, as well. A version of the convertible wearing some of the Cayman GT4's goodies was recently spotted testing. That one even had a manual transmission to make the prospects behind the wheel even more exciting.
