The final production run of Porsche's first water-cooled 911 series (996), Porsche released a special edition commemorating the 40th anniversary of the 911. 1,963 units were built for the world with about 800 delivered to the U.S. Unlike previous anniversary editions, these examples came with more than just unique cosmetic upgrades. Most important, these cars received the X51 Power Kit option, which was $14,000 on its own. This option included unique sand-cast aluminum intake manifolds (from GT3) with modified cross-section and adapted pipes. The exhaust manifold came with a larger cross-section and larger headers. The cylinder heads were modified and included unique camshafts. The inlet valve springs came with increased valve stroke. A third radiator was added as well as an additional underside panel. Finally, the oil pan and DME (computer) was modified. Unlike tuners just doing software, this X51 option was a substantial mechanical upgrade. As a result, the power was conservatively increased from 315hp to 345hp. A full list of what makes these limited production 911s unique include:

Exclusive GT Silver Paint
Exclusive Natural Grey Leather (looks almost black and is perforated)
X51 Power Kit option
Heated seats
3.6L flat 6-cylinder engine tuned to 345 horsepower
Direct accelerator pedal linkage for better throttle response
Limited slip differential for better traction
Porsche Stability Management technology
Aggressive sport suspension tuning (M030)
911 Turbo-style front spoiler
Special doorsill trim and engine cover logo
Each unit sequentially numbered with plaque on center console
Specially finished shot-blasted and polished 18" Carrera wheels
High-gloss finished tail pipes
Sliding sunroof
Bi-xenon headlights w/ dynamic beam angle control & headlight cleaning system

Furthermore, this example was also ordered with the following special equipment:

Bose high-end digital sound package
Remote CD changer (6 disc)
Dual comfort seats w/power package and memory
Driver seat positrol & lumbar

The total MSRP was nearly $95,000

This example was sold new on in early 2004. It spent its entire life in Southern California among enthusiast/PCA owners. It is clear that this 911 was never abused, always garaged, and properly cared-for. We have most service records, which show maintenance history. A recent service was just performed with all fluids and air filters changed.

As you can imagine, this 40-year Edition is in excellent condition. The exterior looks fantastic with minimal signs of use. The paint is all original and verified with a paint meter. The glass is all original including the windshield. All the exterior lights work properly. The 18" wheels are wearing their unique original factory finish. They are wrapped in older Michelin tires that have no cracks but are at about 1/3-life remaining. The front brakes have about 1/2-life remaining.

The interior is equally as nice and looks incredibly fresh. The unique perforated leather seats are in great shape with minimal signs of use. The door panels and carpet look perfect. The dash has no cracks. All the gauges, buttons, lights, etc. work properly. The A/C system blows cold.

This is how the 996 should have been delivered starting in 1999. The 345hp is a welcome addition and is perfectly suited for the upgraded M030 suspension package. The throttle response is direct and quick thanks to the upgraded factory linkage system. The brakes have an excellent bite with no fading. The gearbox shifts butter-smooth with no grinding or slipping. This rare Porsche would be great for anything from weekend touring to even daily use.

This 40th Anniversary 911 comes with all the owner's manuals, most service receipts, original spare, factory tool kit, car cover, and jack.
