The 993-generation 911 (1995-1998) played a crucial role in
Porsche's remarkable turnaround during the mid-1990s. From a low of
3,713 vehicles sold in the U.S. and Canada in 1993, Porsche
rebounded to sell 18,207 units by 1998, with the 993 accounting for
7,547 of those sales. This surge in popularity helped steer the
company away from potential bankruptcy, cementing the 993's place
in Porsche history.
This 1996 911 Carrera Coupe represents the subtle elegance of the
993 911, free from the additions of wings, fender flares, or turbos
found on more exotic variants. Completed in April 1996, it wears
the classic Grand Prix White exterior - the final year this color
was offered - complemented by a Cashmere and Black partial leather
interior. A recent paint meter inspection confirms the originality
of its finish. Among its notable features is the Motor Sound
Package, which enhances the exhaust note with specialized mufflers,
a perforated airbox, and redesigned exhaust tips. The car also
boasts a Hi-Fi Sound System with ten speakers, as well as Comfort
and Power Seat Packages.
The car's history is documented by a clean CARFAX Vehicle History
Report, showing just two long-term owners over its first 27 years.
It is offered with an owner's manual set, tool roll, jack, and
spare tire. As an unmodified, original example of the final
air-cooled 911, complete with the highly desirable six-speed manual
transmission and showing only 35,457 miles at the time of
cataloging, this 993 Carrera Coupe is certainly one to be driven
and enjoyed for its pure, engaging driving experience.
