Representing the most extensive updates to the 911 up to the time of its release in 1994 (1995 for the US), the 993-generation Porsche 911 introduced significant styling updates and, for the first time, a multi-link rear-suspension. Engineered to further reduce the car’s tendency for lift-off oversteer and improve ride quality, the new rear suspension dramatically improved the car’s on-limit handling and day-to-day comfort. While the interior was largely unchanged stylistically to the preceeding 964, an adjustment to the placement of the car’s greenhouse offered additional width, creating a roomier feel to prior cars.
Once again offered in several body styles and with an option of rear- or all-wheel drive and a choice between a six-speed manual or a four-speed ‘Tiptronic’ automatic, the 993 continued Porsche’s tradition for offering a car for every type of buyer. Only produced for four short years, the 993-generation 911 ceased production for the 1998 model year in favor of the upcoming water-cooled 996-generation car. Today, these cars are exceedingly well regarded by critics, enthusiasts, and collectors alike for their last-of-their-kind legacy, relative rarity, and, of course, their incredible driving feel.
The investment-grade 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet featured here is finished in arguably one of the best color combinations of Zenith Blue Metallic over an impeccably kept Classic Grey leather interior with a matching Graphite Grey power convertible top. This exceptional example has been meticulously maintained and recently serviced, making it ready for its next caretaker. I personally believe the investment potential of these 993 air-cooled 911s will grow beyond your imagination. Offered to the most sophisticated collector, investor, or enthusiast who desires only the best at an investment price!
