This Porsche 911 997.2 Carrera 4S Coupe represents the final and most reliable evolution of the naturally aspirated, water-cooled 911 lineup. Finished in Black over a Black interior, it's powered by Porsche's direct-injection 3.8L flat-six — the engine generation that eliminated the IMS bearing concerns of earlier 997.1 and 996 models. Paired with full-time all-wheel drive, this 4S sold quickly at $140,000, reflecting strong demand for clean, well-sorted 997.2 examples in today's collector market.

Finished in Black over a Black interior, this Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Coupe is a standout example of the 997.2 generation — the final and most technically advanced iteration of Porsche's water-cooled, naturally aspirated 911 platform before the switch to the 991 chassis in 2012.


Under the hood is Porsche's direct fuel-injected (DFI) 3.8L flat-six, a significant engineering evolution over the earlier 997.1 and 996 engines. The 997.2 generation eliminated the intermediate shaft (IMS) bearing design that had been a well-known reliability concern on earlier water-cooled 911s, making this 4S one of the most dependable naturally aspirated Porsches available today. Full-time all-wheel drive rounds out a drivetrain built for confident, all-weather performance.


The cabin is finished entirely in Black, giving the car a clean, understated presence that matches its purposeful mechanical specification. As with every vehicle that passes through M Sport Motorwerx, this 4S was thoroughly inspected and prepared before it found its next owner.


This 4S sold for $140,000, reflecting the strong and growing demand for well-sorted 997.2 Carrera 4S examples — cars that combine analog driving dynamics with the reliability improvements that came with the direct-injection engine generation.

What Drivers Ask Most

What generation is this Porsche 911 Carrera 4S, and why does it matter?

This is a 997.2-generation Carrera 4S, the final and most refined version of Porsche's water-cooled, naturally aspirated 911 before the 991 chassis arrived in 2012. The 997.2 introduced direct fuel injection and revised engine internals that resolved reliability concerns from earlier generations.

Does this car have the IMS bearing issue that affects other Porsches?

No. The 997.2 generation switched to a direct fuel-injected engine with a redesigned bearing setup, eliminating the intermediate shaft (IMS) bearing failure risk that affected earlier 996 and 997.1 models. This makes 997.2 cars like this 4S a much safer long-term ownership proposition.

What drivetrain does the Carrera 4S have?

The Carrera 4S pairs a naturally aspirated 3.8L flat-six with Porsche's full-time all-wheel-drive system, giving it confident traction in all conditions while retaining the analog, high-revving character 911 enthusiasts look for.

What did this car sell for, and why is it a strong value benchmark?

This 997.2 Carrera 4S sold for $140,000, reflecting the current market strength for clean, well-documented examples of this generation. As one of the last naturally aspirated all-wheel-drive 911s, values for well-kept 997.2 4S models continue to hold steady or appreciate.
