If, like us, you feel romantic about your 911s, then this manual 1996 993 Carrera might just be the perfect one for you.
As the last 911 of the air-cooled era, the 993 is occupying a very special place in the hearts of petrolheads.
This silver example is currently auctioned over at Bring A Trailer, having covered just 89,000 miles. The car comes with extensive service records and it’s completely stock apart from a Fister Stage II exhaust system and Bilstein Sport shock absorbers.
The Polar Silver Metallic appears in good condition with just a few rock chips on the front bumper while the black leather interior looks also in good condition. The car was kept in a climate-controlled garage under a cover when not in use.
The seller has installed a new set of brake discs and pads within the last 2000 miles and also replaced a sunroof seal at the same time. All electronics work as they should and the Carfax report shows one accident back in 2005, with a $2k repair invoice included in the documents. Overall, more than 40 pages of records are included, showing routine services and minor repairs.
Powered by a 3.6-litre flat six with 282hp and 250lb ft of torque mated to a six-speed manual, the 993 Carrera ticks all the right boxes for those looking for an icon of a sports car, plus a safe haven for their money. The current bid is $32k and there are only two days left, so… can we get a raise, please? A loan? Anything?
