A BETTER CAR. A BETTER WAY TO BUY.

Enthusiast-Owned. No Dealer Fees. No Hidden Charges.

At The Speed Collection, we're not just in the business of selling cars. We're lifelong automotive enthusiasts who share our clients' passion. We understand that buying a special vehicle is about more than transportation. It's about the experience, the details, and the excitement of ownership. Specializing in Porsche and exceptional exotic, luxury, and performance cars, trucks, and SUVs, we approach every vehicle with an enthusiast's eye.

OUR RECONDITIONING GOES BEYOND THE ORDINARY. We take pride in preparing our vehicles to a standard that goes far beyond a typical dealership wash and detail. Our reconditioning process frequently includes extensive work such as wheels-off detailing, deep interior cleaning, and multi-stage paint correction. With our own concours-level auto spa, we have the expertise and facilities to give each vehicle the attention it deserves. We also offer professional in-house paint protection film (PPF) installation, ceramic coatings, and additional detailing services.

Our non-commissioned client advisors provide a knowledgeable, pressure-free buying experience with zero dealer fees, no hidden charges, and no mandatory add-ons.

With approximately 80% of our vehicles sold to out-of-state buyers, we've built our process around making long-distance purchases simple and seamless. We support fully remote transactions and offer nationwide enclosed vehicle shipping.

Finished in Black over a Black Standard Leather interior, this 2005 Porsche 911 Carrera S (997.1) represents the beginning of one of the most celebrated generations in 911 history. Introducing a return to the classic round headlamp design while incorporating modern refinement, the 997 successfully blended the analog driving character enthusiasts cherish with the everyday usability expected of a Porsche. As the more powerful rear-wheel-drive variant of the inaugural 997 lineup, the Carrera S remains one of the purest expressions of the modern naturally aspirated 911.

Power comes from Porsche's naturally aspirated 3.8-liter flat-six, producing 355 horsepower and paired with the highly desirable six-speed manual transmission. Revered for its linear power delivery, crisp throttle response, and unmistakable flat-six soundtrack, the Carrera S delivers an engaging driving experience that has become increasingly rare in today's performance car landscape. Larger brakes, Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), and the model's rear-engine chassis combine to provide the precision, balance, and driver involvement that have defined the 911 for generations.

The timeless Black exterior perfectly complements the 997's clean, understated styling, while subtle factory options enhance its appearance without compromising its classic design. Colored Porsche Crest wheel center caps add a distinctive finishing touch, reinforcing the car's unmistakable heritage.

Inside, the driver-focused cockpit features Black Standard Leather seats, heated front seats, and a factory short-throw Sport Shifter that provides a more direct and engaging shift action through the six-speed manual gearbox. Aluminum Look trim on the rear center console and instrument surrounds adds a subtle motorsport-inspired accent, while the remote six-disc CD changer reflects the premium technology of its era.

The 997.1 Carrera S occupies an important place in Porsche history as one of the last truly analog 911s before increasing electronic integration and the later transition to turbocharged Carrera models. Combining timeless styling, rear-wheel-drive balance, a naturally aspirated 3.8-liter flat-six, and the enthusiast-favorite six-speed manual transmission, this beautifully presented 2005 Carrera S captures the essence of the classic 911 driving experience. Finished in an iconic Black-on-Black specification and thoughtfully equipped with desirable factory options, it represents an outstanding opportunity to own one of Porsche's most rewarding modern sports cars.
