For Sale: 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin

Vehicle Description

1997 Porsche 911 Carrera 2S Coupe - a car that captures the essence of Porsche's air-cooled legacy and speaks directly to the heart of the true enthusiast. Widely regarded as one of the most sought-after variants of the 993 generation, the Carrera 2S blends the raw charm of the final air-cooled 911 with the perfect dose of refinement and presence. With just 15,228 miles from new, this example is a standout in every respect, preserved with the kind of care and restraint that's increasingly hard to find.
What makes the C2S so special is more than just its Turbo widebody styling, though that muscular, wingless silhouette is a major part of the appeal. It's the way it drives. The naturally aspirated 3.6L flat-six produces 282 horsepower with the unmistakable air-cooled soundtrack, paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox that shifts with purpose and precision. The steering is unfiltered, the feedback immediate, and the experience utterly analog in all the best ways.
Finished in factory-correct Black (L741) over matching Black leather, this car is as timeless as they come. The original paint retains a rich gloss and consistent finish that is sti.ll holding up beautifully to this day. Inside, the leather remains supple with light bolster wear that speaks to respectful use rather than neglect. Factory features include a power sunroof, power-adjustable seats, cruise control, power windows, and the original Porsche CDR-210 stereo. The optional 18-inch Turbo Twist wheels set the stance perfectly, while the undercarriage and engine bay remain clean, unmodified, and true to how it left Stuttgart.
This is more than just a well-kept 993, it's a tangible piece of Porsche history, a pure expression of driver-focused engineering from a brand that was about to change forever. For the collector, the enthusiast, or the long-time admirer who's waited for the right one... this is that car.
