Racing Yellow 991.1 Carrera 4 GTS Cabriolet with 7-Speed Manual and Extensive Factory Options
About this vehicle
Racing Yellow on a 991.1 Carrera 4 GTS Cabriolet doesn't come up often. The window sticker approaching $178k tells you how far the original owner pushed the options sheet — and that figure only scratches the surface of what makes this car worth attention. The 991.1 GTS carries a distinction that matters to enthusiasts: it was the final generation of the Carrera GTS to leave the factory with a naturally aspirated engine. This one pairs that 3.8-liter flat-six with a 7-speed manual, factory-decoded as a Convertible/Cabriolet powered by a 3.8L six-cylinder. Approximately 24,000 miles showing, clean title.
The GTS bodywork is doing real work here. Wider rear fenders, black-finished rear grilles, a SportDesign front spoiler, and SportDesign mirrors all separate it from a standard Carrera — no aftermarket involvement required. Yellow ceramic brake calipers are visible behind the 20" Carrera S wheels painted in matching Racing Yellow. LED headlights finished in Black with PDLS+ handle lighting, with body-color headlight cleaning covers, painted air intake grilles, painted vent slats, and an aluminum-look fuel cap rounding out the exterior. Tires are fresh: Michelin Pilot Sport rubber dated 2023. A clean CARFAX report sits in the gallery alongside detailed photos.
Inside, standard Alcantara was deleted for full Garnet Red Natural Leather — the kind of swap that changes the entire character of the cabin. Adaptive Sport Seats Plus (18-way) with the Memory Package are fitted front and rear, heated and ventilated. The multifunction steering wheel is wrapped in carbon fiber with heating. Racing Yellow threads through the seat belts, instrument dials, and the Sport Chrono clock face. Painted Interior Package, Burmester Audio Package, rear footwell lighting, a painted PCM display surround, and leather across virtually every trim surface fill in the rest. ParkAssist front and rear with a reversing camera and auto-dimming mirrors are included. Complete factory option list:

Lift the rear lid and you've got the 3.8-liter naturally aspirated flat-six — 430 HP, 325 lb-ft of torque, and 30 HP over the Carrera S from the same era. Power goes to all four wheels through that 7-speed manual. Standard GTS equipment already covered considerable ground before the order sheet got involved: Sport Chrono Package, dynamic engine mounts, Sport Exhaust System, Porsche Torque Vectoring, and PASM with a lowered ride height were all in from the start. PDCC and the ceramic composite brakes were added on top. Porsche quotes the 0–60 run at approximately 4 seconds.
Sale includes a clean title, owner's manual, window sticker, toolkit, spare tire, air pump, and car cover. Located in Manasquan, NJ.
