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 registered in California on October 27th, 1997. The Ocean Blue Metallic paint is in gorgeous condition. The car came with the added options of 18” Turbo Twist wheels, Hi-Fi Sound Package, AM/FM Radio with CD Player with anti-theft coding, and the beautiful Cashmere leather interior paired with a matching shift knob and hand brake.

The original owner kept the vehicle for nearly 20 years until selling it in 2017. The second California owner took just as good care of this 993 C2S over the span of 6 years before offering it to Bruce Canepa. With an average of fewer than 600 miles per year for a total of 14,898 miles over 26 years and extensive service history, it’s apparent that each of the previous owners only sparingly drove the car to preserve its great 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 Porsche’s most sought-after “air-cooled” sports car, one that marked the end of an incredible era for Porsche in a breathtaking color combo.
