Overview of this porsche carrera gt

The porsche carrera gt stands as one of the most significant analogue supercars ever produced, recognised for its racing-derived engineering, naturally aspirated v10, and purist manual transmission. Introduced in the early 2000s as a direct descendant of porsche’s le mans prototype programme, it embodies an era of uncompromised mechanical performance.

This July 2004 example is presented in the exceptionally rare faïence yellow exterior combined with a full terracotta leather interior, a configuration that elevates its desirability within the global collector market. Listed at €1,690,000, it represents one of the most distinctive colour combinations available today.

Powered by a 5.7-litre v10 delivering 612 hp, the carrera gt accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.9 seconds and reaches a top speed exceeding 330 km/h. Its carbon-fibre monocoque chassis and lightweight engineering philosophy define its enduring appeal among collectors. Offered in stuttgart, germany, and benefitting from ultra-low mileage with complete provenance, this example qualifies as an investment-grade supercar.

Porsche carrera gt for sale exterior and interior

Exterior: carbon architecture and rare paint

The porsche carrera gt’s exterior is built around a carbon-fibre reinforced plastic (cfrp) monocoque, engineered for aerodynamic efficiency and structural rigidity. This example features the rare faïence yellow finish, preserved by a high-quality paint protection film (ppf) that enhances long-term collectability. Signature elements include the high-exit exhaust system, sculpted side intakes, and clamshell engine cover. The forged magnesium wheels—19-inch front and 20-inch rear—are fitted with new michelin pilot sport cup2 tyres, reinforcing its high-performance capability.

interior: terracotta craftsmanship and carbon details

Inside, the carrera gt embraces a minimalistic, mechanical philosophy designed to maximise driver engagement. The complete terracotta leather interior provides a striking contrast to the exterior, enhancing the individuality of this configuration. The carbon-fibre bucket seats (option codes 386 and 387) offer lightweight construction and precise lateral support. Additional refinements include the matching terracotta leather luggage set and the period-correct porsche online pro audio system, complemented by brushed aluminium and exposed carbon elements that underline the car’s mechanical precision.

Porsche carrera gt for sale performance

The defining element of the porsche carrera gt is its naturally aspirated 5.7-litre v10, originally engineered for endurance racing. Mounted in a rear-mid configuration, it delivers 612 hp at 8,000 rpm and 590 nm of torque, offering one of the purest analogue supercar experiences of its generation.

Power is transmitted exclusively through a six-speed manual gearbox paired with the advanced porsche ceramic composite clutch (pccc) system, known for its ultra-low rotational inertia and precision. With a dry weight of just 1,380 kg thanks to its cfrp monocoque structure, the carrera gt achieves exceptional performance benchmarks, including:

0–200 km/h in 9.9 seconds
top speed of 334 km/h

Its 42/58 weight distribution contributes to its renowned handling stability, making it not only a historically important supercar but also a reference point in analogue performance engineering.

Porsche carrera gt for sale rarity and value

With only 1,270 units produced, the porsche carrera gt sits firmly in the blue-chip category of modern collectible supercars. Its analogue configuration — naturally aspirated v10 + manual gearbox — represents a formula unlikely to return, reinforcing long-term value growth.

Originally priced around $440,000 MSRP, top-condition models have since multiplied in value. The valuation of this example — €1,690,000 — reflects its rare faïence yellow / terracotta specification, complete provenance and specialist maintenance. For collectors seeking a high-liquidity asset with demonstrated appreciation, the Carrera GT remains one of the strongest performers in its segment.
