Porsche 993 Carrera 4

The vehicle in detail

Porsche 993 Carrera 4S There will be doubters, haters, liers, non-believers, and there will be me not giving a f*ck. – Hank Moody The Porsche 993 911. A Porsche that is very significant to many and closed things, but also opened new doors in Stuttgart. It was the very last 911 to use only air for cooling. It was also the last 911 that Ferdinand Porsche himself experienced. Four days after the last 993 was born in Stuttgart, Ferdinand breathed his last (air-cooled) breath. R.I.P. hero!

Compared to its predecessor (and no, this didn’t come from the introduction leaflet, this time it really was!), the 993 was revolutionary. Its entire chassis had been sharpened and Porsche introduced the VarioRam system. Something with even more air at revs, for a smooth transition towards the red area of your tachometer, which sits dominantly in the centre of the instrument cluster. We all know, Porsche is awfully good at that. Emphasising the -for an enthusiast- essential things. Driving, experience and emotion. And we can tell you that a 993 C4 with manual transmission has them.
