Porsche 997

2004–2012. The 997.1 (to model year 2008) keeps the M96/M97 and its IMS bearing; the 997.2 (2009–2012) moves to direct injection and PDK, and drops the IMS. The two halves of the generation are different cars to own and to resell.

What to check on this generation

These are the points brand specialists agree on for the generation. They are not observations about any particular car below — only an inspection can tell you that. MODEL KNOWLEDGE

997.1: IMS and bore scoring, same checks as the 996. Borescoping is not optional.
997.2: no IMS, but direct injection demands service discipline and attention to cold-running roughness.
PDK versus manual: the collector market pays more for the manual, daily use prefers PDK. That is a value decision, not a taste one.
PCCB ceramic brakes: discs run to tens of thousands per axle. A PCCB car with worn discs is not a bargain.
Service bulletins and dealer history: on a car of this age, history is worth more than mileage.

The rest is inside.

Price history, reappearances across marketplaces, landed cost to your door and the daily watch are all in the club. Open access — no account, no password.
