Performance & Engineering:
Power comes from Porsche’s 3.8L naturally aspirated flat-six (MA1/01) producing 385 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque.

Why the 997.2:
The 997.2 generation (2009–2012) is widely considered a sweet spot in the 911 lineup. It retains hydraulic steering, compact dimensions, and a driver-focused interior, while benefiting from significant mechanical upgrades over earlier cars. It represents the final era before increased size and digitalization, making it increasingly desirable to enthusiasts and collectors alike.
