2012 Porsche 911 Carrera S

There is something about this 911 that really is attracting my notice. I can’t put my finger on it, but more so than most 991s I come across this one looks really good. Maybe it’s the color combination – I do really like the interior. Or maybe just the white exterior paint in general, which for whatever reason seems to work for me. I haven’t been a huge fan of the 991 design as it’s become too flat and more or less looks like the Cayman. I realize that’s the reverse of how the two models are typically viewed, with most seeing the Cayman as derivative of the 911, but with the current models the direction seems to have shifted. I’m sure aerodynamically it’s far superior to the more upright appearance of an air-cooled 911, but those specific aerodynamic benefits will rarely be appreciated to any significant degree so I can’t say I care. Design aesthetics aside, the 991 is another step forward in the long evolution of the 911 as one of the best sports coupes on the market. Performance is raised across the board and even if the current 911 isn’t as hard-nosed as it once was it remains a rear-engined driver and that in itself lends it much of its unique character. Plus, what car isn’t as hard-nosed as it once was? So here we have a White 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera S, located in Florida, with Nautical Blue leather interior and 57,442 miles on it.

Beautiful White exterior with Nautical Blue interior, a rare color combo. The vehicle is in excellent condition, always garaged with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires put on less than 4000 miles ago. All scheduled maintenance done. Still under Porsche CPO warranty until 100k miles which is a copy of the original full warranty, not some abridged warranty that only covers certain items. I am the second owner of the vehicle and when I purchased it from Champion Porsche all maintenance had been done at Champion Porsche.

The only add on item is a Shark Werks 991 Carrera Sport Exhaust. It replaces the center muffler. There are still the two other mufflers behind each wheel so it is stock quiet in normal operation, but when you rev up the engine it sounds amazing!!! The stock muffler is also included.

At over 57K miles this 911 has seen a good bit of use during its short time, but it does make the asking price more reasonable. Granted buyers can certainly find lower mileage examples without much problem, but the color combination is pretty unique and if your intention is to put some miles on it yourself then maybe the discount is worthwhile (most lower-mileage examples seem to be listed around $80K). With 400 hp, a 7-speed transmission, and all the refinement you could ask for in a sports coupe this would be tough to beat. Given that a Carrera S typically exceeds $100K when new we’re looking at a very nice savings for what we know will be a wonderful car to drive.
