Vehicle Description
This 1999 Porsche 911 Carrera caught your eye because one of the
most iconic sports cars of all time is finally priced within reach.
But as you dig a little deeper, you'll find a low-mileage example
that has been given the right investment for subtly adding style
and power. So you won't be able to resist adding to the odometer by
showing off this loaded six-speed sports machine.
Arctic Silver Metallic is a color that looks great on a German
sports car. After all, it's the country's classic racing color, and
it also has the premium glow you want on a precision-built machine.
There was even a full respray to make sure the gloss loves to
highlight the car's curves. You can tell this car has led a careful
life so far. More than just the low mileage (averaging under 2,500
miles annually,) this retains a good fit and finish that comes from
owners loving a true exotic. Everything looks premium, right down
to the 19-inch lattice wheels. And there are just the right
tasteful upgrades for added distinction, like the clear light
package and tinted windows.
German cars are some of the best at ergonomics, and the 996
generation proves it the moment you sit in the contoured black
leather bucket seats. This remains thoroughly modern and
comfortable enough to drive every day. But this is no compromised
commuter. The full package is still aimed at enthusiastic drivers,
and it's everything you'd expect from one of the world's most
storied marques. The leather-wrapped sports steering wheel gives a
clear view of the full gauge package (the tach is the most
prominent piece in these competition-inspired Porsches.) As
expected from a premium Porsche, this one comes loaded. It includes
features like power seats, power windows, power locks, keyless
entry, cruise control, power steering, dual airbags, ABS, an
AM/FM/CD changer stereo, and a power sunroof. And dual-zone
automatic A/C climate control means you and your passenger get to
choose your ideal comfort temperature.
Under the hood is the correct-style 3.4-liter flat-six. This
fuel-injected powerhouse was rated at a healthy 296 horsepower
right from the factory, but you can see there's more going on here.
There was over $6k invested in motor upgrades. It includes K&N
air intake, an IPD plenum intake, and an upgraded exhaust. It's the
kind of added power you can feel out on the road, especially when
you control it all with the desirable six-speed manual
transmission. That means downshifting through your favorite corners
and blipping the throttle to make sure you're in total control of
the power band. It feels terrific on your favorite "secret" road
thanks to features like Porsche's fully independent sports
suspension, drilled four-wheel power disc brakes, and the grip of
low-profile ZR-rated tires. But as much as we like talking about
performance, the condition of this coupe tells you it seems more
like it was used as a pleasure driver. And that's because the 996
generation was also one of the most civilized and refined Porsches
to ever hit the road.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual and maintenance
records. This is the extra powerful and loaded Porsche of your
dreams. So don't let this one end up in someone else's garage. Call
