In Pixar's Cars, what brand and model is Sally Carrera?

In Pixar's Cars, Sally Carrera is a Porsche 911 Carrera.

Sally is the blue sports car who serves as Radiator Springs' attorney and motel owner. Her character design is based on the Porsche 911 Carrera, connecting her elegant appearance to the real German sports-car marque and model line.

Before settling in Radiator Springs, Sally says she worked as a lawyer in Los Angeles. She left the city because she wanted a different life, and she became one of the town's strongest advocates. Her knowledge of the town's history helps McQueen understand why the community matters beyond its appearance on a map.

The name “Carrera” is also a real Porsche-associated term, so it is both Sally's surname and a clue to her automotive identity. She is not a Chevrolet Corvette or a Volkswagen Beetle, two other famous vehicle designs that audiences may associate with animated car characters.
