Why This 10-year-old 911 Costs £300,000

Whilst visiting Alexanders Prestige, I check out one of the rarest modern day 911s made; the 997 Sport Classic. Just 250 cars were made back in 2009 and whilst visually, they were very unique, mechanically, not much was changed... so why are they worth the same as a 911 R?

Porsche’s first attempt at a retro-look 911. The Sport Classic was launched in 2009, and with production limited to 250 units – is sold out quickly. Despite being based on a humble Carrera S, albeit with a huge number of options, Porsche charged a whopping £137,529 for the model – considerably more than the equivalent 997 Turbo.

There’s a lot that sets the Sport Classic apart from other 911s, most of which are the highly desirable cosmetic tweaks. New clock faces, a new gearlever, new seats and new door-cards certainly make the Sport Classic feel special, and there’s simply not the space here to list everything that has been covered in leather or re-trimmed to look and feel more appealing.
