Porsche 911 993 Carrera 4 from 1st hand complete checkbook only 72,000 kilometres (1996)

Vehicle description

Model history:

For the last time, the Porsche 911 had an air-cooled boxer engine in the 993 series. It came from the 964 and had a displacement of 3.6 liters, but had been heavily modified for use in the 993. The power grew to 272 hp, from 1995 it increased by the use of a so-called Vario Cam system to 285 hp. Externally, these models were recognizable by the somewhat rectangular exhaust tailpipes. For the first time, the 993 series had been equipped with a 6-speed gearbox - optionally, the 4-speed automatic transmission was available again. The multi-link rear axle had also undergone a thorough overhaul, which now enabled even higher lateral accelerations.

Engine:

The 3.6-liter six-cylinder boxer engine in the rear of this convertible delivers 285 hp, the individual gears are engaged via a 6-speed manual transmission. In September 2022, a final service took place recently.

Subsoil:

In accordance with the low overall mileage, no negative abnormalities can be detected on the underbody of this sports car that could cloud the good overall impression of this 911. A 993 represents the pinnacle of the air-cooled 911 era and is therefore one of the most sought-after Elfern. This 993 released for auction here proves to be a collector's vehicle due to its low verifiable mileage and the associated impeccable state of preservation from 1st hand.
