AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
GENERAL:
This Porsche 911 (997) Cabriolet is an exceptional and very high-quality build, developed with a clear focus on performance, expert engineering, and an unparalleled driving experience. The car was cherished for more than ten years by a single Dutch owner, who consistently developed and technically improved the vehicle over time.
Originally delivered in the United States, this 997 has since been fully and professionally converted to European specifications. This is not a standard 911, but a carefully built, incredibly responsive driver’s car for the true enthusiast looking for open-top driving pleasure combined with serious mechanical upgrades.
BODYWORK & PAINT:
The exterior presents beautifully and features a distinctive, aggressive stance. The car is currently fitted with striking 997.2 Turbo-style alloy wheels that suit the overall look perfectly. For the next owner, a brand new front splitter will be fitted prior to delivery (photos of this will follow soon).
TECHNICAL:
At the heart of this Porsche is a masterpiece: a fully rebuilt, naturally aspirated flat-six engine that has been enlarged to a 4.0-litre configuration. This comprehensive engine rebuild was carried out approximately 10,000 km ago and features top-tier engineering:
* Closed-deck engine construction for ultimate reliability.
* Fitted with GT3 996 pistons.
* Built with K1 connecting rods and premium Carrillo 3/8 bolts.
* Upgraded and renewed IMS bearing.
This setup produces approximately 400 hp, resulting in a powerful, immediate throttle response and impressive performance.
The drivetrain consists of a 6-speed manual gearbox combined with a GT3 short shifter for a precise, mechanical shifting feel. Purists will love the fact that the car has been converted to a Carrera 2 rear-wheel-drive configuration and is fitted with a Carrera 2S differential, providing a much sportier and more direct driving experience.
To match this serious power, the suspension and braking system have been heavily upgraded. The car features high-performance ceramic brake discs from the 996 GT3 for consistent, fade-free stopping power. Furthermore, a custom sports exhaust gives the car a deep, characterful sound that perfectly suits its sporty nature.
INTERIOR:
The interior is fully finished in premium blue leather, covering the supportive factory sports seats as well as the door panels. The craftsmanship is of a very high standard and presents in very nice condition. Combined with the convertible concept, the blue leather gives the cabin an exclusive, timeless, and highly distinctive appearance.
DOCUMENTS:
The car comes with a solid history of long-term ownership in the Netherlands. All technical modifications have been documented, and the car is fully compliant with European specifications and road regulations.
COLLECTION:
The car is ready to be viewed and inspected at our showroom. Please feel free to make an appointment via Catawiki to come and see this unique build in person.
OTHER INFORMATION:
What makes this Porsche 997 4.0 Litre truly special is that while it has received extensive, high-quality performance modifications, its core heritage has been respected. The original wheels and the original differential are still present and will be supplied with the car. In short, this is a unique opportunity to own a heavily upgraded, 400 hp, manual 911 Cabriolet with a bulletproof technical foundation that drives sharper and faster than almost any standard 997 on the market.

Export: We offer full export support, should you wish to export the car

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
