The vehicle in detail

Chassis No. WP0CA2996WS340676
Engine No. 64W01726

After three decades of incremental improvements and refinement of the 911’s rear-engine, air-cooled formula, Porsche introduced a fundamental change to the 911’s DNA with the launch of the water-cooled 996-generation in late 1997. A move that has divided Porsche devotees ever since, the previous 993-generation 911 was thereby cemented as the last of the air-cooled 911s, and as a result, represents some of the most coveted modern Porsches ever produced.

Finished in Stuttgart Zuffenhausen in October 1997, this Carrera 2 Cabriolet was selected in Arctic Silver Metallic over an optional Classic Grey Supple leather interior. Factory-fitted options include a limited slip differential, Power Seat Package, Motor Sound Package, and HI-FI Sound Package with Speakers. The original window sticker additionally lists two selections from the Exclusive Department that include Classic Grey Floor Mats and Stainless Steel Door Sills with Carrera script. The “row-your-own” six-speed manual remains the enthusiast’s choice, offering a heightened level of engagement and a more rewarding driving experience—one that lingers even after the characteristic cooling pings, so cherished by air-cooled aficionados, gently subside.

Delivered to Walter’s Porsche of Riverside, California (now Porsche Riverside), the clean CARFAX reveals sunny Southern California ownership from new with regular servicing at Porsche South Bay between 2003 and 2017 by the long-term second owner. By 2017, the six-speed Cabriolet had only accumulated 19,342 miles, an impressively low total reflecting light, considered use, maintained by subsequent caretakers. At the time of consignment, the 911 shows just 26,460 original miles, is equipped with upgraded two-piece 18-inch SportClassic II wheels, and comes with its original window sticker, books, tools, and air compressor. Furthermore, it features a recent major service performed by the specialists at TRE in August 2025, which included replacement of the air, fuel, oil, and pollen filters, transmission lube, oil change with Porsche lubricants, replacement of all three belts, a brake fluid flush and system bleed, new distributor cap and rotor, new front struts and a convertible top service. Previous maintenance documentation is neatly organized in the accompanying records book.

While debates over generations and configurations will always persist, there is little argument that a 993-generation Cabriolet, with a six-speed in hand and a flat-six singing behind you, with the top down on a sunny day, delivers one of the most rewarding and immersive experiences in all of motoring.
