7k-Mile 2004 Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet X50 6-Speed
The vehicle in question is a standout, high-performance Porsche from the mid-2000s. It's a 2004 model, which happens to be a year that saw Porsche introduce significant improvements in their turbo engines. This particular car is a 911 Turbo Cabriolet – a rare and coveted combination of speed and style, with its distinctive twin-turbocharged six-cylinder Boxer engine producing around 415 horsepower, sent smoothly through its responsive 6-speed manual transmission to the wheels.
What sets this Porsche apart is its X50 package, an option usually exclusive to higher trims but made available here. This adds 30 more horses to its stable, boosting power up to a formidable 443 hp. Paired with its lightweight body and advanced all-wheel-drive system, it's no surprise that this 911 can sprint from 0-60 mph in less than four seconds.
But speed isn't this Porsche's only defining feature. As a Cabriolet, it offers the exhilaration of open-top driving – although you might choose not to fold the roof during full-throttle moments to preserve that iconic turbo whoosh, a sound that encapsulates the essence of Porsche's sports cars.
Despite its speed and visceral soundtrack, this 911 Turbo isn't some garage queen. With only 7,000 miles on the clock – less than some daily-driven Subarus – it shows signs of being meticulously maintained, suggesting it sees regular exercise without excessive abuse.
