A friend asked me about this car. I 'think' it's a millennium. Yes? How can we be sure? The cursory conversation with a salesman revealed nothing.

no its not a millennium but its a 40th anniversary edition.

here is a millennium edition with an aerokit:

Looks like a 40th anniversary, But it's mis-advertised as a C4S.

911 badge is the first sign, then look at the motor pic. and you'll see the metal intake from the X51 package which confirms it.

I suppose it could still just be a car that was ordered with X51 and then had the front bumper added...but it looks to be legit.

If I'm not mistaken, that is the famous, and very rare, 911 C4S Millennium 40th Anniversary edition. Lovely.

nota_troll

Ah yes. I remember the Millennium car now.

Will the 40th be a collector car?

ivangene

ONLY if it has less than 5k miles, no green lights in dash, and a factory OEM replacement battery

Bwaha-ha-ha! I know who you are talking about. Too bad he doesn't have a 40th Anniversary car.

nota_troll

Obviously I'm missing something?

Need to be around here often to catch these sutle but "friendly" remarks towards Phil's low mileage car Cheers...

I think andy is spot on but the only real way to know is thru the Vin # with Porsche.

Here is a little more about the car courtesy of Supercars.de:

Distinguishing styling features are the front cooling air openings adopted from the 911 Turbo. The side air intake grilles at the front are painted in body color. Other highly expressive styling details are the left and right sill trims, the shot-blasted, polished 18-inch Carrera wheels and the high-gloss polished exhaust tailpipes. A sliding sunroof, bi-xenon headlights with dynamic beam angle control and a headlight cleaning system complete the exterior features. There is an aluminum "911" logo on the engine cover at the rear. The 3.6-liter flat-six engine has a power output of 345 bhp (254 kW). This is 25 bhp more than the regular 911 (X51 intake manifold and camshafts) and can be sensed particularly in the upper engine speed range. The direct accelerator pedal linkage guarantees a spontaneous response. This modification makes the "40th anniversary 911" one second faster, at 16.5 seconds, when accelerating from 0 to 200 km/h. Its maximum speed goes up by 5 km/h to 290 km/h. The jubilee 911’s body has been lowered by ten millimeters compared with the standard production model and has firmer suspension. An additional mechanical rear-axle differential lock (with a locking effect of 22 percent in the traction and 27 percent in the coasting mode) results in even better traction at the driven rear wheels and, consequently, optimum acceleration potential. The interior is trimmed in particularly soft dark gray natural leather. The jubilee model of course has sport seats, with two-stage seat heating. The center console, seat backs and groove trim strips on the dashboard and the handbrake lever side covers are finished in GT silver metallic. The interior looks even more stylish and exclusive, thanks to details such as the aluminum-finish instrument dial rings and the numbered "911 40th anniversary" plaque on the center console.

Here is the interior: Note the "911" below the A/C, the brushed aluminum bezzels and the painted center console.


Here is the rear badging per Andy's comment:


And the painted turbo front grilles with the C4S chin spoiler:

With the way the goddam economy and markets are going, I'll be luck to have a 40th anniversary anything.

gota911

Hey, I hear you on that one. Hell, I'm not even going to have a 1st Anniversary at my Dallas job!

This 40th is even more desirable (to me) because it has sport seats (some had the comfort option) and no rear wiper!
