The seventh generation of Porsche's perennial 911 sports car was designated 'Type 991', succeeding the Type 997. Introduced at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 2011, the Type 991 was only the third all-new platform for the 911 since the original of 1963, the second being the Type 996 of 1999. Its development overseen by Porsche's Chief Designer, Michael Mauer, the Type 991 represented a logical progression from the Type 997 and was slightly larger than its immediate predecessor while retaining the classic 911 look. The most important chassis change was to the wheelbase, which increased in length by 100mm, while a new transaxle enabled the rear wheels to be relocated 76mm rearwards relative to the engine, improving both weight distribution and cornering performance. Transmission options comprised six-speed or seven-speed manual gearboxes, with Porsche's dual-clutch (PDK) shift optional on the latter.
Porsche's signature 'flat-six' engine was available in three different capacities in the Type 991 (3.4 litres, 3.8 litres, and 4.0 litres) with power outputs ranging from the entry-level Carrera's 345bhp up to the Turbo S's 552 horsepower. Following its established practice, Porsche also offered Cabriolet, Targa, GT3 and GT3 RS variants to cater for all customer demands ranging from soft-top boulevard cruiser to track-day assault weapon.
In 2013 Porsche announced a special edition to celebrate 50 years of 911 production. Manufacture was limited to only 1,963 units (referencing the original's year of introduction) although the anniversary package of popular options could be ordered for any model in the then current range. The '50 Years' package consisted of heated seats, front/rear park assist, telephone module, the Sport Chrono package, and Porsche Communication Management including satellite navigation.
Built to Swiss specifications for the current owner, this '50 Years 911' coupé comes with photocopies of the manufacturer's Certificate of Conformity, Swiss Carte Grise and purchase invoice listing what seems to be just about every conceivable 'extra' from the options catalogue, including a power upgrade to 430 horsepower and new engine compartment styling. Finished in Graphite Grey with Agate Grey leather/cloth interior, this limited edition Porsche 911 has been seen minimal use as part of the vendor's extensive private collection in the Middle East, the odometer reading a mere 885km. A battery has been fitted recently and the car is running and driving, but given the cars period of static display, some recommissioning may be required before it returns to the road.
