The Porsche 911 Carrera 4S, produced during the revered 993
generation (1995-1998), marked the end of the air-cooled era. It
combined the wide-body design of the Turbo with a naturally
aspirated 282-horsepower engine and all-wheel drive, blending style
with performance. The C4S featured "Turbo-look" 18-inch alloy
wheels, wider tires, larger brakes with red Turbo calipers, and
Turbo suspension components. Enthusiasts admired its aggressive yet
sleek design, enhanced stance, and superior performance over the
standard Carrera. Its all-wheel-drive system improved traction and
handling, especially on slippery roads. As one of the last Porsche
models with an air-cooled flat-six, the 1998 Carrera 4S remains a
firm favorite.
Finished on 30 October 1997, this final-year Carrera 4S was
finished in Glacier White over a rarely seen partial leather
interior in Chestnut Brown. It features the sporting six-speed
manual transmission and was optioned with full driver's side power
seat, wheels caps with colored crests, and the Technic Package that
included an AM/FM radio with CD player with anti-theft coding and a
removable control unit. The CARFAX Vehicle History Report shows
initial ownership in New Hampshire and then Pennsylvania before
being acquired by a new owner in Washington state in 2000 with
7,537 miles on the odometer. In 2010, the car changed hands again
landing in Oregon for the next 11 years. In 2021, the C4S joined
the collection of Rudy Mancinas, known in Porsche circles as "Mr.
993." Mancinas enjoyed tastefully modifying his 911s. This Glacier
White example features RoW Turbo S-style front air intakes and
driving lights, RoW rear taillight lenses, and a lowered ride
height with M030 sport suspension springs. Unfortunately, Mancinas
passed that year in August and a portion of his collection was sold
off in the spring of 2022 with the consignor acquiring the car at
that time. This rare final-year Carrera 4s, just one of 295
produced for the United States, is offered with 57,664 miles and
furnished with a thick binder of with service receipts and Porsche
specification data sheet, a thick binder of with service receipts
and Porsche specification data sheet, its toolkit, jack, spare, air
compressor. Highly coveted, collectible and usable, these
end-of-the-run 911s have truly come into their own and ranks among
the most cherished of all 911 models today.
