The 991.1 Carrera S (2012-2015) was the first 911 on the all-new 991 platform, with a longer wheelbase and aluminium-intensive body. It uses a 3.8-litre naturally aspirated flat-six making 400 hp, offered with a 7-speed manual or PDK, and was the last generation of non-turbo Carreras with a traditional engine note. It is regarded as the sweet spot between analogue feel and modern usability.
It is the final naturally aspirated Carrera S, with hydraulic-era steering feel replaced by electric assist only in the following generation's turbo era, and a high-revving character the 991.2 lost. The 7-speed manual is rare among modern 911s, and the car pairs everyday usability with genuine Porsche engineering depth.
