Built by the Porsche Exclusive department, the Turbo S was distinguished by vented rear fenders, yellow brake calipers, a special rear spoiler, a four-tipped exhaust system and an Aerokit front spoiler with special vent and fog-light placement. Comparisons with the 959 - Porsche's technical tour de force the previous decade - were inevitable. Still considered among the most powerful and sophisticated models Porsche has ever offered.

"If it didn't exist, there would be nothing remotely like it" - Peter Egan

Chassis No. WP0AC2997VS375971 was completed in May 1997 and sold new on August 25th through The Porsche Exchange of Highland Park, IL, finished in Speed Yellow over Black Leather. In addition to the plethora of standard equipment found on a Turbo S, this car was equipped with self-dimming mirror and rain sensor, complementing floor mats with Porsche script, lumbar support l/r, digital sound package, 6-disc remote CD changer and supple leather front/rear. Its Classic full-leather interior includes a leather draped headliner, sun visors, center console, key rosette, window switches, door sills, speaker covers, and seat switches. Featuring carbon fiber dash insets, instrument surrounds and door-panel inserts, carbon and aluminum shifter, hand-brake, door handles, and aluminum-faced gauges.

In 2000, the Turbo S made its way to California, where it would reside for the next 18 years under caring ownership. Just over 38,000 carefully preserved miles are displayed on this exceptionally original and unmodified 993. The cabin retains its original factory trim and upholstery, down to the supplemental floor mats and CDR-210 radio, along with all identification tags, glass and exterior lenses. Paint depth readings confirm all body panels exhibit its factory applied Speed Yellow paint. Its stunning condition reflects the consideration put forth over the years which is further supported by ALL original books, cards and pamphlets in folio, both sets of keys / fobs and Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. Emergency accessories located in the front luggage compartment, such as the tools, tire bag, gloves, first aid kit, air compressor, spare tire and jack appear unused. Porsche car cover and bag are welcomed additions.

CarFax and AutoCheck consistently track with a clean history, while much of its previous service work was performed by Porsche dealerships and specialists. Most recently, in December 2018, the car received a complete "Intermediate Service" and multi-point inspection by Porsche of West Houston, along with all new Porsche N-Spec Bridgestone Potenza tires. Considered the ultimate evolution of the air-cooled 911, the 993 Turbo S is worthy of the most discerning Porsche collector, on par to any modern supercar.

As the last "hand-built/air cooled" Porsche and with amazing looks and performance we believe the 993 Turbo S remains one of the best collectible Porsche's of this generation. We proudly offer this stunning original and complete example for further inspection, worldwide purchase and delivery from our Houston, Texas showroom.
