Porsche 991 for Sale

The short answer

The 991 is the Porsche 911 generation sold in the US for the 2012 through 2019 model years. It splits into two halves: the 991.1 (2012–2016) and the 991.2 (2017–2019). The biggest difference is the engine in the Carrera models — naturally aspirated in the 991.1, turbocharged in the 991.2. Most Carrera models could be ordered with a seven-speed manual or a seven-speed PDK. The 991s we have right now are listed above; this guide helps you choose one.

991.1 vs 991.2 at a glance

GT3, GT3 RS and 911 R models use a naturally aspirated flat-six in both halves of the generation.

991.1 or 991.2 — which should you buy?

Choose a 991.1 Carrera if you want the last naturally aspirated Carrera engine. Many drivers prefer its throttle response and sound.

Choose a 991.2 Carrera if you want more low-down torque, the updated infotainment and the newest 991 you can buy. The turbocharged engine makes the car easy to drive fast every day.

Either way, spec matters more than year. A well-optioned, well-kept 991.1 Carrera S can be a better buy than a plain 991.2 Carrera, and the reverse is just as true. Compare the window stickers, not only the model years.

Manual or PDK?

Most 991 Carrera models — Carrera, Carrera S, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S and GTS — were offered with a seven-speed manual or a seven-speed PDK. The 991.2 Carrera T was offered with either gearbox too.

Some 991 models are PDK only: every Turbo and Turbo S, every GT3 RS, and the 991.1 GT3. If you want three pedals in a 991 GT car, look at the 991.2 GT3 (six-speed manual offered) or the 2016 911 R (six-speed manual only).

Gearbox labels in online listings are not always complete. If a listing only says "7-speed", ask us to confirm manual or PDK from the window sticker.

The 991s in our inventory right now

As of early November 2026 we have 21 991s in stock, from a 2013 Carrera S to a 2019 Turbo S Exclusive Series Cabriolet. The list changes as cars sell, so the grid above is always the current one, but today's mix shows how wide this generation is.

Naturally aspirated road cars. We have 2013 to 2015 Carrera, Carrera S and Carrera GTS cars, including a 2015 Carrera GTS Cabriolet.

Turbocharged Carreras and Targas. The 2017 to 2019 cars include Carrera, Carrera S, Carrera T, Carrera GTS and Carrera 4 GTS models, plus two Targa 4S cars and a Targa 4 GTS. Every Targa here is all-wheel drive, as the range notes below explain.

GT cars. We have three 991.2 GT3s, all with the six-speed manual, and two GT3 RS cars, both with PDK. There is also a 2016 911 R with its six-speed manual. Those cars line up exactly with the gearbox rules above.

The Carrera T shows why the gearbox matters. Two of our 2019 Carrera Ts are rear-wheel drive coupes that differ in the way that counts most: one has the seven-speed manual and one has PDK. To start with the three-pedal car, see our 2019 Porsche 911 Carrera T in Carrara White Metallic with a black interior and a seven-speed manual.

Coupe, Cabriolet or Targa. Most of these cars are coupes, but open-top buyers have real choices here: Cabriolets from a 2015 Carrera GTS and a 2017 Carrera to the 2019 Turbo S Exclusive Series, plus the three Targas above.

Color is part of the spec too. Three of our 991.2 cars wear Paint to Sample colors: Aetna Blue on a Carrera 4 GTS, and Black Olive Green and Grigio Telesto on two GT3s.

The 991 range, model by model

Carrera and Carrera S. The core of the range. Rear-wheel drive, Coupe or Cabriolet, manual or PDK.

Carrera 4 and Carrera 4S. All-wheel drive with the wider rear body. Coupe or Cabriolet.

Targa 4, Targa 4S and Targa 4 GTS. The 991 brought back the classic Targa look: a fixed roll bar with a power-operated roof panel and wraparound rear glass. Every 991 Targa is all-wheel drive.

Carrera GTS. Offered in both the 991.1 and 991.2, with rear- or all-wheel drive and Coupe, Cabriolet or Targa bodies. A popular choice because it bundles options buyers usually want.

Carrera T (991.2). A lighter-equipped, driver-focused Carrera, rear-wheel drive, manual or PDK.

Turbo and Turbo S. All-wheel drive, PDK only, Coupe or Cabriolet. The top of the road-car range.

GT3, GT3 RS and 911 R. The track-focused, naturally aspirated cars. See the gearbox notes above, and our GT3 RS guide.

What to check before you buy a 991

Service history. Look for full records, oil services on time and a clean Carfax. We would rather show you a documented car than an undocumented one with fewer miles.

Window sticker and options. Options change value and the driving experience: Sport Chrono, sport exhaust, PASM, rear-axle steering (where offered), front-axle lift, carbon-ceramic brakes, seats and Paint to Sample colors. Ask for the window sticker or build sheet.

Gearbox and clutch. On manual cars, ask about clutch condition; on PDK cars, ask for service records. A pre-purchase inspection can check both.

Recalls and campaigns. Ask whether all open recalls have been completed. This can be checked by VIN.

Tires, brakes and front end. Check tire age, brake wear and stone chips. Ask whether the car has paint protection film and whether any panels have been repainted.

Track use (GT cars). Track use is normal for a GT3 or GT3 RS. Documented track use with matching maintenance is better than no records.

Ask us for a full walkaround of the exact car — by FaceTime or in person.

991 price — what drives value

What a 991 is worth comes down to the individual car: the half of the generation, model, gearbox, mileage, options, color and history. We do not publish general price guides here, because two cars with the same badge can be very different cars. Each car's current asking price is on its own listing.

Buying a 991 from out of state

Most of our buyers live outside Oregon. Here's how it works:

1. Walkaround video and photos of the exact car, including a cold start and a drive, plus the Carfax and window sticker.
2. Live video call or in-person visit, whichever you prefer.
3. Paperwork and financing handled remotely.
4. Delivery to your door, anywhere in the US.
