Unique in quality and condition: The paintwork on this vehicle, which is still in its original factory condition, is 100% the original factory paint. Paint thickness measurements show no evidence of touch-ups or repainting. The vehicle was driven exclusively in dry weather and stored in an air-conditioned garage.
Just like the flawless paint finish, there is no visible or documented wear or damage anywhere on the vehicle. The other components, such as rubber seals and lights, are also still completely in their original condition. The underbody shows no signs of wear; likewise, the engine and transmission are dry, and the original underbody protection is still in place. No aftermarket additions or modifications have been made.
The car has currently covered a total distance of just 25,900 kilometers. This makes it arguably one of the last vehicles with such low mileage that is in a condition—both visually and technically—akin to a year-old car. Despite the very low mileage, this example has been meticulously maintained, driven regularly, and professionally stored.
The vehicle was serviced at the Porsche Center and most recently underwent maintenance in February 2023 by the Porsche classic specialist Dronia, making it ready for immediate use. We have had several 993 Carreras with low mileage, but we have very rarely seen such an exceptional example.
The special equipment is also a distinctive feature of this vehicle: the seats were ordered ex-factory in the high-quality Raffleder leather trim. In addition, the driver’s and front passenger’s seats are equipped with seat heating, and if the sunroof remains closed during longer drives, the air conditioning ensures a cool supply of fresh air.
The complete collector’s package includes, in addition to the first owner’s complete documentation, the service booklet, the key card, and the key and tool set, which is still in unused and partially original sealed condition. Thanks to the original documents that have been available since the order was placed, the vehicle’s complete history is fully documented and traceable from day one.
Thanks to careful maintenance, the vehicle has been preserved over the years and is in a consistently immaculate condition, befitting a year-old car, and in the highest grade of preservation and collector’s condition.
Expert Opinion: For many Porsche enthusiasts, the 993 series is the model offering the most exciting combination of traditional form and modern technology. Especially in the purist coupe version, this model enjoys particularly high appeal and desirability.
Conclusion: This German vehicle from its first owner is in uncompromising collector’s condition due to its history, very low mileage of just 25,900 km, and the complete original paintwork. For the Porsche enthusiast with particularly high standards, this example offers a rare opportunity to acquire one of the best-preserved and most attractive vehicles on the market.
We provide this inspected vehicle with a 12-month warranty, a current general inspection, and, upon request, an insurance appraisal. We also offer additional services such as transportation, classic car insurance, protective wrapping, and the option to purchase via leasing or financing. Please feel free to contact us.
We are also happy to accept your Porsche in top condition as a trade-in.
