Porsche 993 Carrera

The vehicle in detail

“ The generation of the Porsche 993 marked the end of an era, the end of the air-cooled engine and the entry of electronics in many elements, although it still offered options as old as the four-speed automatic gearbox, while the manual already had with six gears (supplied by Getrag). It debuted a multi-link rear axle, which was the basis on which the 996 evolved and which was one of the sections that helped tame the sloping rear of the German sports car. ” — Jordi Edo

The 993 … one might think that it was not a very powerful car for a Porsche 911, but nothing could be further from the truth. We are talking about the year 1996, the year in which the Ferrari 348 ceased to be manufactured, whose V8 came to yield 320 CV, the spectacular Honda NSX announced 270 CV and the exotic Mazda RX-7 offered 240 CV.

In other words, Porsche put into circulation an air-cooled, two-valve-per-cylinder engine, capable of offering the same performance as more complex and sophisticated engines such as the Honda V6 or the Ferrari V8, or more power than the hysterical and supercharged rotary propeller of the RX-7.

Subject aside … with reliability at a level that still amazes us today.
