Porsche 911 993 Carrera Cabriolet (1997)

Kickdown's Take
by Louis KalendruschatAs the last air-cooled 911 generation, the 993 has long been a coveted icon. Black on black with a manual transmission—as seen on this example—is arguably the most classic 993 configuration of all, while 993 Turbo wheels, Bilstein sport suspension, and a sport exhaust ensure it makes the right impression. The low mileage of just 99,206 kilometers rounds out the car’s appeal. An air-cooled 911 for lovers of open-air driving.

Comments of this past auction
Sehr geehrter Besitzer, ein Wartungsheft ist offenbar nicht mehr vorhanden. Könnten Sie uns jedoch Wartungsnachweise und Rechnungen aus der Zeit nach der Erstzulassung des Fahrzeugs in Deutschland (2011) zukommen lassen?
Aus welchem Jahr stammen die vier Reifen? Ich glaube, auf Foto Nr. 53 steht 2013?
