Mileage, Condition, and Provenance
With just 89,256 km, this Porsche shows exceptionally low mileage for its age. Even more impressively, it is presented in like-new condition – a true rarity in the classic 911 market. The car was originally delivered in Europe, further enhancing its authenticity and value. First registered on 6 March 1996, it already carried legendary status as one of the last air-cooled 911s. Today, the 993 Carrera 4S is regarded as one of the most sought-after variants in Porsche’s rich history.
Why the 993 Carrera 4S is so loved
The appeal of the Porsche 911 (993) Carrera 4S lies in its perfect balance of sportiness, design, and exclusivity. The wide Turbo body, four-wheel drive, and naturally aspirated soundtrack make every journey an unforgettable experience. For many enthusiasts, it represents the ultimate classic 911 – modern enough for everyday comfort, yet classic enough to deliver the authentic Porsche feeling.
This generation also marked the end of an era: after the 993, Porsche transitioned to water-cooled engines. This makes the 1996 Carrera 4S especially significant – the last of the air-cooled lineage, wrapped in one of the most beautiful designs Porsche ever created.

Porsche 911 (993) Carrera 4S – An Icon in Grand Prix White
The story of Porsche is inseparable from the 911 – a model that has set the benchmark for sporting excellence since 1963. In the 1990s, the legendary 993 generation arrived: the last 911 powered by an air-cooled engine. This generation is celebrated by enthusiasts worldwide for its timeless design, outstanding build quality, and pure driving experience.
Within the 993 family, the Carrera 4S held a special place. It combined the wide Turbo body with four-wheel drive – but without the Turbo itself.
