Details
This 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera Turbo has just 29,895 miles and is powered by a 3.6L twin-turbocharged flat-six engine that sends power to a manual six-speed limited-slip differential equipped transaxle that drives all four wheels. The car is finished in Polar Silver Metallic and trimmed in Marble Gray leather upholstery. The cabin provides air conditioning, an onboard driver's info computer, a sunroof, cruise control, and power windows. Driving is made easy with a four-link independent rear suspension and four-wheel disc brakes, along with power steering. This low mileage example includes a clean CarFax documenting just three previous owners in California. The car is currently located in Alabama.
A third-party inspection of this 911 was conducted along with third-party photos. The results of both reveal a well-sorted example of a turbo 993 Porsche. The paint shows only minor blemishes that are consistent with mileage. The current owner sought to protect the exterior by applying a protective film to the hood, front quarters, and bumper. The current owner also believes the paint to be original, and the inspections paint meter readings indicate consistency across the body except for the drivers door. The car was modified by a previous owner with the Turbo S spoiler, and a FabSpeed exhaust system was also fitted to the car to enhance performance. The interior shows only minor wear to the drivers seat, consistent with age. The car is in good mechanical condition. The test drive reports a good tight suspension that has good alignment in combination with a solid running engine and smooth shifting transmission. The current owner has spent over $21,000 servicing the vehicle this year. This includes rebuilding the turbos. Included in the sale is a complete tool kit and owners manual.
This Porsche 911 is being sold through a CLASSIC.COM Pro and is located in Alabama.

About the model
The 993 Turbo was available between late 1995 to 1998. Powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.6 liter flat six, it was rated at 402 horsepower. Its distinguished easily from the rear, as the whale-tail spoiler is quite deep to house the intercoolers meant to cool the intake charge. This extra power might have been a handful for street drivers, so all-wheel drive from the 993 Carrera 4 added traction at all four corners. Approximately 6,000 coupes were made. Although powered by a different engine, a limited production 993 Turbo Cabriolet was available in the early days of the 993 generation. A more powerful 993 Turbo S was also introduced in 1997. The direct successor to the 993 Turbo was the 996 Turbo for model year 2001.
