About the Porsche 911 997.1 Carrera 4S Cabriolet

Manufactured globally between 2006 and 2008 as a key variant of the first-phase 997 generation, the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet seamlessly blends all-weather grand touring capability with engaging analogue sports car dynamics. Distinguished by its 44-millimetre wider rear fenders to accommodate the all-wheel-drive system, this open-top model is powered by a naturally aspirated 3.8-litre flat-six engine delivering 350 horsepower. A total of 12,587 units of the Carrera 4S Cabriolet were produced during this specific 997.1 run. Within the current modern-classic collector landscape, this generation holds a resilient and gently appreciating market value, as enthusiasts increasingly recognise it as one of the final iterations of the analogue-feeling 911 before the shift to heavily digitalised driving platforms. Its desirability remains robust, appealing strongly to those who seek the visceral sound of the flat-six engine coupled with the security of four-wheel traction and open-air motoring. Consequently, the buyer pool is highly engaged and discerning, consisting largely of dedicated Porsche purists, weekend touring enthusiasts, and modern-classic investors who actively seek out factory-original, low-kilometre examples with impeccable maintenance records.
