MANUAL | NEW TURBOS | ÖHLINS
This is the one for the person specifically looking for a 997 Turbo with three pedals.
A 2008 Porsche 911 Turbo 997.1, finished in black with the desirable 6-speed manual gearbox and 98,000 miles, backed by a substantial history file and significant recent expenditure.
The important bit is what has already been done.
Replacement turbos have been fitted, while the chassis has been upgraded with Öhlins suspension and lightweight OZ Leggera wheels. The majority of the bodywork is also protected by PPF.
This isn't a standard car wearing a set of aftermarket wheels. The upgrades have been chosen properly and the invoice file demonstrates the level of investment that has gone into maintaining and improving it.
The 997 Turbo is already a special thing: 480BHP, four-wheel drive and the character of the 3.6-litre twin-turbo engine, but the manual gearbox is what completely changes the experience. Modern performance cars are objectively faster. Very few make you participate like this one does.
And somebody else has already paid the painful turbo invoice.
For serious buyers we are happy to go through the history, invoices and maintenance in detail. This is exactly the kind of car where provenance matters more than simply comparing mileage numbers.
