Summary

This Porsche 911 from the 993 series rolled off the assembly line in March 1995 as a Carrera Coupé with Tiptronic in a U.S. specification and spent most of its life in Japan, where it was first registered in May 1998. It has been in Germany since 2024, cleared through customs and fully documented with an individual operating permit issued in June 2025, including an exemption for U.S. lighting technology. The Porsche Vehicle Identification Number confirms extensive factory equipment, including power comfort seats, a sunroof, air conditioning, and cruise control. Visually, with its striking aero package, multi-piece wheels, and a light gray leather interior, the vehicle has a much more distinctive appearance than a standard 993. The odometer reading is 20,782 miles, which is partially corroborated by Japanese records. Paint thickness measurements indicate that the entire vehicle has been repainted.
