Porsche’s renewed interest in developing the 911 reached full swing by the end of the Type 964's production period. In 1994, the company announced the 993. Produced for only four years, the 993 proved to be the last of the air-cooled Porsches. Later cars, while ever more powerful and luxurious, don’t have quite the same ‘classic sports car’ feel the air-cooled models do. In comparison to the 964, the 993’s most obvious changes were its headlamps and fenders along with increased power (which was later increased further with the ‘Varioram’ intake). Its interior was largely the same, with a redesigned steering wheel and center console the most notable differentiators between the two models.
Revisions also included the suspension, with Porsche continuing to develop the vehicle to further reduce lift-off oversteer. As with the 964, the 993 was available in coupe, cabriolet, and Targa (now with a power-retracting glass panel rather than the previous removable top insert) and with a choice of rear or all wheel drive. A choice of transmission: a new six-speed manual or optional Tiptronic automatic transmission, let buyers tailor their cars to their requirements. With all of these improvements, it’s no wonder enthusiasts and collectors instantly fell in love with the 993. These cars are some of the most collectible of any 911 as much for their historical value as their driving experience and impressive refinement.
The magnificent 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet featured here is finished in classic Grand Prix White over Beige leather with a Black folding convertible top. This well-cared-for 911 has spent most of its life in Southern California and features a six-speed manual transmission, a full power driver's seat, air conditioning, and cruise control. According to the clean CarFAX, a service was performed in 2021, where the car received new tires, a four-wheel alignment, an oil/ filter change, and more. We are proud to offer this 911 Carrera Cabriolet to the most particular collector, investor, or enthusiast who understands and appreciates the investment potential of this up-and-coming German classic!
