2018 Porsche 911 Carrera T

Finished in GT Silver Metallic with the Sports Exhaust, this 2018 991.1 Carrera T is the purist's take on the standard 911: a 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged flat-six producing 365 bhp and 450 lb-ft, paired with a seven-speed manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive. The T trims weight and adds a shorter final drive and mechanical differential character to the regular Carrera, putting the focus on driver involvement rather than headline figures. The page quotes 0-62 mph in 4.5 seconds and a top speed of 182 mph.

This example has covered 12,274 miles and has had two owners, so it remains a low-mileage car for its age. The factory options are well chosen for the way the car is meant to be driven: the Sport Chrono Package with the white stopwatch dial, the Sports Exhaust System, Power Steering Plus, Sport Design mirrors and front and rear Park Assist. It also rides on 20-inch Carrera S wheels, and the cabin has white instrument dials, privacy glass at the rear, heated front seats and two-zone climate control with an air quality sensor.

The manual Carrera T has become one of the more sought-after non-GT versions of the 991.1 generation, as the last of the naturally aspirated-feeling, three-pedal 911s before the move to turbocharging was fully accepted by enthusiasts. A well-optioned, low-mileage, two-owner car in a subtle colour is the sort of 991 that should hold its value well.
