With 1998 marking the end of the Porsche 993 generation, people were eager to purchase the final production of the air-cooled Porsche. Designed from the ground up both mechanically and cosmetically versus the previous 964 generation, the 993 was considered the best-driving 911 built to date. The passionate buyers and collectors believed that this was the 911's final triumph since they were unsure of what the new water-cooled 911s would offer. Those who were fortunate enough to purchase a 993 in the final year of manufacture were treated to the greatest driving experience a Porsche could provide, with all the improvements and refinements you'd come to expect from a company like Porsche.

This 993 was first sold in California on January 5, 1998. The Arctic Silver paint is in excellent condition with paint protection film covering half hood, headlights, and rocker panels.
The car came with multiple added options, including 18” Turbo Twist wheels, touring suspension, sound package, comfort leather seats, stainless steel door entry guards, AM/FM Radio with CD Player with anti-theft coding, and the beautiful Boxster Red Special leather interior (an exclusive $4k option not seen in many 993 models) accented with an aluminum shift knob and hand brake. While still new, the original owner had the dealer add on the desirable factory Aero package.

Over the decades, the car was traded among collectors in California, Florida, and New York.
With an average of fewer than 1,000 miles per year and a binder full of documentation and extensive service history, it’s apparent that each of the previous owners only seldom drove the car to preserve its concours condition.

Upon arrival at Canepa, every collector car for sale is put through an extensive and diligent process called the “Canepa Difference.” This includes a major and comprehensive mechanical inspection where all systems are serviced and restored as necessary. They also receive an award-winning concours-level detailing, including a thorough cleaning of each and every surface. As expected of a car that has been traded among caring collectors, this vehicle arrived in stunning condition.

This is your opportunity to own a gorgeous piece of history, one that marked the end of an incredible era for Porsche in breathtaking condition.
