A 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera S coupe from the 991.1 generation, showing roughly 14,000 miles on the odometer, is being offered at auction by a dealer in Oregon. The car is consigned through Bring a Trailer by a local partner, and the seller presents it as a well-kept example of the model with a clean vehicle history and a comprehensive set of paperwork.
The car was originally delivered through Sunset Porsche in Beaverton, Oregon, and its window sticker lists a total price of $118,495. The current owner bought it in 2014 and added around 6,000 of the 14,000 miles during their ownership. That means the car covered roughly 8,000 miles before it reached the present owner, a detail that gives prospective buyers a sense of how the car was used in its early life. The vehicle carries a clean Carfax report with no reported accidents and a clean Washington title, and the original window sticker, owner's manual and service records are included in the sale.
Under the hood is a 3.8-litre flat-six engine rated by the factory at 400 horsepower and 325 lb-ft of torque. Power goes to the rear wheels through a seven-speed PDK automatic transaxle, a combination that defines the driving character of this generation of 911. The chassis is equipped with Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control and Power Steering Plus, which tune the suspension and steering response to the driver's inputs. The brakes feature red-painted Porsche calipers clamping cross-drilled, ventilated discs, a visible sign of the Carrera S specification.
Exterior finish is Anthracite Brown Metallic, a less common colour that sets the car apart from the more typical black and silver examples. It rolls on 20-inch Carrera S alloy wheels, and the Pirelli tyres were mounted in 2024, so the rubber is relatively recent for a car of this age. Other exterior equipment includes bi-xenon headlights with PDLS, fog lights, LED taillights, a sunroof, a speed-activated rear spoiler and a quad exhaust. The seller says paint protection film covers the front end and parts of the body, although that claim has not been independently verified. Photos of the underside are shown only in the gallery, so buyers will need to examine those images closely.
Inside, the cabin is trimmed in black leather, with heated and ventilated power front seats. Factory equipment includes the Sport Chrono Package, which adds a dashboard stopwatch, along with a Bose sound system, a touchscreen with CD stereo, dual-zone climate control, cruise control and rear ParkAssist. The combination of performance hardware and comfort features reflects the Carrera S's positioning as the more fully specified variant of the coupe.
The listing is consigned by a dealer in Oregon that operates as a Bring a Trailer Local Partner, and the documentation package is a central selling point. Low-mileage, documented 911s of this generation have attracted steady interest from collectors and enthusiasts, and this sale offers a car with one owner for most of its life and a paper trail that traces its ownership from new. Bidding will determine the final price, and the outcome will show how the market values a well-documented, low-mileage example of a model that is now more than a decade old.
