French registration title The Porsche 911 Type 997 Carrera GTS holds a very special place in the 911 lineage. Produced only between 2010 and 2012, it represents the final evolution of the naturally aspirated 3.8l flat-6 before the arrival of the 991 generation and the widespread adoption of turbocharging in the Carrera range. With 408 hp delivered to the rear wheels (in this rear-wheel-drive version), a manual gearbox, and a widened chassis borrowed from the 4S, it strikes a delicate balance between performance, driving emotion, and aesthetic appeal.
Upon release, the GTS came standard with many features that were optional on the Carrera S — including 19-inch wheels, PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management), PSE (Porsche Sport Exhaust), the Alcantara interior package, sport seats, sport steering wheel, and more… Our example is one of the most highly optioned GTS models on the market, featuring the 6-speed manual gearbox, limited-slip differential, sport chassis, 90L fuel tank, rear seat delete, silver instrument dials, adaptive Sport Seats, and the stunning RS Spyder black wheels.
Originally delivered new by Porsche Zentrum Bensberg in Germany, our car was finished in triple black and registered to its first owner on April 4th, 2011. Showing 83,300 km, it was then imported and registered in France in October 2021. The current owner has since covered nearly 10,000 km, maintaining the car meticulously throughout.
During our test, the car shows just over 92,000 km, fully documented by its regularly stamped service book and verified via Histovec. It was serviced in 2021 at 82,471 km by Porsche Centre Lyon Nord, and more recently at 88,568 km by Passion Automobiles Sport, a respected Porsche specialist in Alsace.
As naturally aspirated engines continue to disappear, cars like the 997 GTS are steadily appreciating in value — especially in rear-wheel drive, manual configuration. Less expensive than a GT3, yet more focused than a Carrera S, the GTS strikes the perfect balance for spirited road use, while offering genuine long-term collectibility.
