This 2011 Porsche 997.2 Carrera Coupe is finished in Carrara White over a Black interior and features a 6-speed manual transmission paired with its 3.6-liter engine as well as an optional limited-slip rear differential lock. It was sold new from Park Place Porsche of Bellevue, Washington, and has been under the current ownership for the past 5 years. The car has been modified with lower European-spec springs, an FVD Stage 3 tune, a full M&M race exhaust, BMC air filters, slotted brake rotors, and a Function-First Shift-Right Solution ball bearing shifter kit. It has also been recently serviced with new GT3 RS engine and transmission mounts, refinished wheels and tailpipes, a new battery, brakes, and taillights. This 997.2 is now being offered for auction by its seller out of Florida while showing approximately 73k miles on the odometer.
This Carrera Coupe is finished in Carrara White and rides on 19” Carrera S “Lobster Claw” wheels dressed in 6-year-old Bridgestone Potenza tires. The wheels and tailpipes were powder coated in black by Wheel Doctors in Miami, Florida in 2023 and new OEM taillights were installed in in December 2022. The brake calipers are painted red and the car has been fitted with clear European-spec side marker lights and upgraded LED bulbs. The seller notes a tire rub mark to the right rear-end was repaired and appears as minor damage on the CARFAX report in 2021. The driver’s side door was refinished to address a paint chip and some minor signs of road-going wear are noted on the hood and front bumper. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a full CARFAX report.
The Black interior includes leather seats, a leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel, automatic climate control, an electric sunroof, and Porsche Communication Management (PCM). The shifter has been upgraded with a Function-First Shift-Right Solution kit as well as an aftermarket white gear knob and an Alcantara boot with deviated stitching. The seller notes one air vent adjuster tab has broken off and the cabin remains in very good condition with all gauges and accessories working properly.
The naturally aspirated 3.6-liter flat-six engine was rated at 345 HP and 287 lb.-ft of torque stock and drives the rear wheels by way of a 6-speed manual transmission and an optional limited-slip rear differential lock. The car’s power has been increased with an FVD Stage 3 ECU tune, BMC air filters, and an M&M full racing exhaust featuring equal-length long-tube headers and a merged X-pipe in the mid-section. The car also features lower European-spec OEM springs, solid stainless-steel shifter cables, and new Frozen slotted rotors paired with Hawk 5.0 Race brake pads. The seller adds that the engine and transmission mounts have been recently upgraded with new GT3 RS spec parts and the braking system received new Castrol SRF fluid within the last 500 miles.
This sale will include the original exhaust headers and catalytic converters, owner’s manuals, a toolkit, an air pump, a car cover, some documentation, and a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: “In 2011, a 911 C2 6 Speed 997.2 was purchased from Park Place in Bellevue, WA and has been under current ownership for 5 years. There are service records for the past 5 years, which can be seen in the pictures. The current owner is a friend of mine from PCA parties, and he asked me to handle the sale because I recently sold my blue car on PCARMARKET and he knows that I am familiar with his car. He has taken good care of the car for the past 5 years, and all service has been done ahead of Porsche’s recommended schedule. The car has been kept in a garage in WA and in his garage in FL, so it has not been exposed to excessive sun as he works from home. The interior looks new, just as shown in the pictures. The car is a base 911 Carrera 2 with a 6-speed manual transmission and 350 horsepower according to Porsche. I have driven it enough to trust it, and it is a fun and fast car. Despite having lower power, it still performs exceptionally well due to its analog and lightweight nature. The shifter has been improved with new bushings in brass and cable ends, resulting in better shifting compared to my 13 Carrera S and even my GT4. It feels amazing to drive, partially thanks to having the correct Mobile 1, 75w 90 Synthetic in the gearbox/transaxle. The 997.2 features from the factory are an 82mm big throttle body, hill hold assist, and factory LED tail lights. The engine and transaxle mounts have been upgraded to GT RS spec, which tightens things up without making the ride rough. The car doesn’t jerk around when taking off. The brakes have been upgraded with all-new slotted then Frozen Rotors, (see frozenrotors.com) along with new Hawk performance street pads. The car stops quickly, like now. While there is some brake dust, it has been greatly reduced due to the hard rotors and pads. This is a significant upgrade in my opinion and based on past experience. It may be overkill if you never go to DE’s (Driver Education events), but they will last a long time on the street. Additionally, all new fluid Castrol SRF was added less than 4 months and 500 miles ago. The car is being sold with an M&M full racing exhaust imported by FVD out of Pompano Beach. It consists of equal-length long tube headers and a merged X-pipe in the mid-section. It may not be ideal for phone conversations, but it sounds amazing when you’re driving it and want to hear the engine. Some original parts are included with the sale, although not all of them. As for the engine tune, I don’t know much about it, but the owner states that the exhaust, intake, and tune work well together and have improved the car’s performance. From my perspective, having driven a 400HP Carrera S and a GT4 running on VP 93 pure gas, I can say that this car is definitely awake. The new redline is 7700 rpm and it loves to rev after the motor switches over to the VarioCam. Recent work done this year include new engine mounts, transmission mount, 19” lobster wheels and tailpipes were professionally refinished by Wheel Doctors in Miami, FL. A new Deka Battery was installed 3 months ago, new rain-x wipers this month, brand new Frozen rotors (slotted) and Hawk 5.0 Race brake pads. Brand new tail lights from Porsche were installed in December 2022. The car has been tastefully modified by the most recent owner. This vehicle is lowered on Porsche ROW (rest of the world) springs approximately 1.25” lower than factory US spec (non-pasm car). A stage 3 tune from FVD consisting of full M&M race exhaust, BMC air filters and engine remapping. The factory shifter is gone, a shift right solutions kit with all the bushings and cable ends are in. New stainless steel brake lines. European spec clear turn signals with LED bulbs. This car is pushing 385 horsepower and weighs in at 3025 pounds, about 50 less with the exhaust modification. The 997.2 C2 manual is the lightest possible configuration available. This is the final year of the infamous square bore 3.6 boxer engine featuring DFI which eliminated any IMS or RMS failure issues. This is the most bulletproof Porsche produced in recent years. The vehicle comes with a Porsche 997 specific exterior cover, factory headers with catalytic converters and a My Genius flash tool to set the car back to factory or stage 2 tune for emissions if necessary. Also included are an extra set of the mesh screens that are for the factory Porsche airbox (sound upgrade on this car).”

Just noticed firs sentence, car was not sold new from Park Place Bellevue WA. It was originally a Beverly Hills CA dealer car then came to WA to the current owner and car was shipped in enclosed trailer to Miami FL last December. Car has always been garaged and never seen snow/ice.

@jatmon997tt Header pics and receipts are being taken right now. Exhaust was done in two stages, 1st sport street sport, 2nd stage was race headers with cat bypass. Hence, with flash tool can be put back to stage 2 or stock. Original headers included.
Vehicle description states full exhaust system, including headers, but attached receipts only show exhaust and x-pipe invoice and instillation. Any receipts for the headers ? Any underbody photos that show headers and exhaust ?

@Van_Slyke To be honest the only real change I felt is slightly less body roll and lower ride height/ground clearance. I drive responsibly and respect speed bumps and always swerve around pot holes. I didn't have the stock springs on that long but I would say as far as bumpiness its nearly the same after the lower ride height. This doesn't ride like H&R which hits bump stops all day long. The GT RS spec engine and trans mounts also effect handling and weight shift and even turn in. This is the last year of hydraulic steering so it it all compliments the car well together. - current owner
The ride is a little stiffer than a stock car, it’s more that it’s just low speed bumps are 12-14 mph fast speed bumps at 19-20 tops if I bought it I would upgrade to new technology coil overs like PSS 10’s or whatever works best then this car is done
Good to see a clean DME report. I may have to bid on this one, even though I just bought a black one last week. This is set up more to my liking. If it goes under 45 I'll have to grab it.
@Stevesmithseo - FYI, obviously a typo, but the title of the videos describes a “2013” 911 S…
The ROW springs make this 911 look like it should, but I wonder what is the ride difference (if any) from the stock USA spec springs? I live in CT (metro NYC area) and the roads are outright trash here. I also spend a lot of time in South Florida and your roads are mostly perfect for street performance suspensions. Did the current owner do the springs upgrade and can he add any opinion on the differences in ride with the different springs? Thanks.
Sorry for typo below it does not.
@lcaofq151va15df14 It doesn't not, I believe that started the next year in 2012 in the 991.1 generation. However, with the tune, the throttle is very responsive and I find it easy to downshift at the right revs to save flywheel wear and tear.
Does this spec have auto rev matching?
@BUDNIK18 owner here what is the issue? Feel free to make a bid, now that DME report is available and its confirmed the vehicle hasn't suffered catastrophic failure or any misfire, zero.
I posted DME pics, not up; call Pcarmarket I’ll call in the am but no overrevs come down for a ride, Fort Lauderdale
VAL report containing dme report can be found here. No over-revv can be verified on page 56 of 65.
https://spaces.hightail.com/receive/lDlcyEGweO
DME pics are up, good luck; now its worth an extra 10k unreal you guys… grab it fast, nice car
@BUDNIK18 What exactly do you want to know?
They won’t let me share his phone # call me Steve smith boat rental Fort Lauderdale I’m easy to find
@fastrack1 tech is a Pcarmarket not my problem I will call them but I can watch just fine
Any chance we could work with the owner on this car.
I tried to watch the videos. No sound and horrible resolution. Something just seems off on this one. Still waiting on the DME report
66 page DME report coming 35 mins from plug in to report easy…
@Stevesmithseo thank you for the information sir.
@Run_Amok 997... they do not last for shit, everyone I know with a 997, drivers and turbo s garage queens alike; have tail lights replaced or clear swapped. they leak, they crack from the sun a general pita item on all 997's I would put aftermarket clear ones on they look super sharp on white and silver cars not so much on the dark colors anyway this one has fresh ones for now pretty easy to replace DIY btw 2 t30 ish screws under the deck they pop right out. good luck and happy bidding
@Stevesmithseo what was the reason for the new tail lights?
@stefan320 they are NOT easy to obtain at all but I found a guy and I'll post it asap. A better question would be does it run perfect for the last 5 years and 15K miles watch the video i just had uploaded, more to come... ;) good luck
@desertmoon there's pics of it and the repair bill in the listing somewhere, but bottom line it was a mud truck tire rub on the right rear just some paint work at the top of the right rear wheel well
Carfax show damage , any information on that ?
Plus one for DME report, given the mods it has. It would really help to see, and very easy to obtain.
@Run_Amok Not sure how Entomondata was tagged in my previous comment. Totally unintentional.
@Entomodonata @Stevesmithseo I would need the DME report prior to scheduling a PPI.
Also curious if service records are available? Not the Carfax entries, but actual copies of service records.
@Stevesmithseo This car has a lot of track focused modifications. I think a DME report would clear up whether it has been abused or not. There should be plenty of time to pull one at a dealer or independent before the end of auction and I can guarantee that, if clean, will result in a higher auction price. Just my two cents…
No, I can just tell you the owner has driven her for 5 years no problem, I’ll get a video on tomorrow. I’ve ridden with him a lot he doesn’t aggressively downshift so I wouldn’t expect anything on a DME it’s a nice car that runs perfectly, whoever gets her will be happily surprised how nice and tight she drives no creaks or rattles very nice driving car, in fact if an S is a stretch for you buy this car you’ll love it PPI’s are Welcome
@Stevesmithseo Is a DME report available?
Nice car, needs a ducktail, dark window tint, porsche black letters on the side and a Jake Rabi, FSI build 4.0.
Bid in the amount of $9,972

VERY sorted, just drove it today and our friend drove it too he was very impressed too said it drives like a new car and the shifting is exceptional
No track, I’ve been over it did the brake job etc I can tell there’s always a marble stuck somewhere this is virgin
have the same questions as @Run_Amok. Is there a DME report and what is the driving history of the car?
Just bought a very similar black one this week. If this had been available, I’d have been very tempted to pick this one up. Sorted car, right color in excellent shape. What more could you want?
Very nice car.
Will a DME report be available?
Has the car been tracked? If yes, to what extent?
@Stevesmithseo excellent
@BUDNIK18 chances of that are very good, how does a zero to 60 wot run sound to you?
Wow really nice 997.2 What are the chances of an exhaust video? I’d love to hear this thing.
