Vehicle Description
This very desirable 1998 Porsche 911 Carrera S Coupe is beautifully
finished in a special order color of "Dunkelblau" or Dark Blue
(non-metallic). This color, code L347, was previously offered on
911 models from 1985-1990 and was applied to this car via Porsches
Paint to Sample program as it was not offered as part of the 993
standard color palette. The cost for this paintwork was an
additional $2,995 and was well worth it in my opinion. Additional
options on this 911 include Classic Grey Interior in Leather, Full
Power Seat-Left, Hi-Fi Sound Package with Speakers, Remote CD
Changer (6-Disc), Supple Leather Front and Rear, Porsche Floor Mats
and Stainless Steel Exhaust Pipes. Production was completed in
October 1997 and it was shipped to Jim Ellis Porsche in Atlanta
where it was sold to its first owner on December 12, 1997. The
original owner retained the car until October 19, 2016 when he sold
it to a dealer with 28,065 miles on the odometer. We have a thick
file of service receipts from 1998 to present day and those
receipts confirm the first owner's lengthy and careful stewardship
of this car that spanned eighteen years.
In addition to an excellent service history, this very desirable
final year Porsche 993 is in spectacular condition. The Dunkelblau
paintwork, which was applied via a single stage process, is
fantastic. It is free of any major scratches or repairs. The
texture is factory original and hasn't been color sanded or over
buffed. The wheels are fantastic. The interior is in excellent
condition and is a slightly darker grey than it appears in the
pictures. No modifications whatsoever have been made and the
original radio is working perfectly. The underside is truly
collector grade and original as well. The rear engine tray, which
is often times missing at this point, is in place. The floors are
damage free and the suspension is unmodified and well coated in
original factory Cosmoline. This is a very good driving example of
a rare and desirable specification.
Included in the sale: Original Owner's Manuals with Radio Code,
Copy of Window Sticker, Keys (3), Tool Kit, Jack Kit, Collapsible
Spare Tire and Inflator, Work Gloves.
