In 2006 the Porsche performance flagship was the 911 Carrera. It came in many flavors, all of them fast. The Porsche 911 series handles with brilliance - all four wheels are always planted firmly on the pavement. Sanely, there is no practical way to approach the 911's grip-limits on the street. That said, it is still a comfortable ride. The styling of this 2006 AWD 911 Carrera 4S needs no explanation. It is directly related to 911s of the '60s, but surprisingly modern and beefier than those early models. The trunk is still in the front and the engine is still in the rear, but the driver and passenger now reside in a luxuriant interior. This Carrera 4S Cabriolet, finished in 'GT Silver Metallic', is stunning when accented with 19" Porsche alloy wheels that mount Michelin radials. The interior is as nice as any luxury car every produced and the soft black leather is in outstanding original condition. Features include premium Bose AM/FM/CD 6-disc changer, power windows, power heated seats, tilt Sport Wheel and aluminum pedals. Virtually every safety feature is standard on the Carrera including dual front, side and curtain airbags. Porsche fitted the Cabriolet model with a snug top and heated glass rear window. Putting the top down is a one-button affair that has the entire system retracted in just a few seconds or back up in a few more. The rear-mounted 3.8-liter flat six-cylinder engine produces 350 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. It is backed by a six-speed manual AWD transaxle. Top speed was advertised as 179 mph, with 0-60 times at 4.6 seconds. The chassis is equipped with power rack/pinion steering and power 4-wheel disc brakes w/4-piston calipers and 13" ventilated/cross drilled discs. This Porsche 911 Carrera 4S is a true performance roadster that will move quickly.
