Die-hard Porsche 911 owners never quite got to grips with the original Tiptronic semi-auto gearbox, finding it somewhat sluggish. Then, after Porsche became part of the VW group, some were surprised that it took Stuttgart so long to tap the brains of their Audi colleagues, who had been fitting their lauded and successful DSG version to their own cars since 2003. This car was finally the one that crossed that bridge, but more than that, its engines were totally updated too, becoming at once cleaner, lighter and more powerful while having fewer parts - the greater simplicity proving a great incentive to manufacturers of Porsche aftermarket parts. An important upshot was fuel savings of around 15 per cent in typical day-to-day driving conditions, this despite the output of both the Carrera and more powerful Carrera S’s engines being boosted by six to eight per cent.
Onlookers could spot the 997 Mk2s by the line of LED running lights upfront. The new gearbox actually benefited the cars’ off-the-line sprint times, but it's big differences were really felt at day-to-day running speeds, when the auto mode made it smooth and civilised - not words commonly used in the same sentence as a Carrera. The exhaust system of the Mk2 997 Carrera has been a big focus for makers of Porsche aftermarket parts, the components manufactured by specialists such as Cargraphic focusing in particular on reducing the temperatures and back pressure put on the system as a whole, and so prolonging the life of the car’s exhaust system.
