The vehicle in detail

The foundation: an icon at the end of its evolution

Built in 1998, this is one of the very last air-cooled Porsche 911s ever made. The 993 marks the final pinnacle of an era at Porsche—technically mature, true to its character, and unmatched to this day in its mechanical integrity.

The model choice: 4S – where form and substance merge

The 4S version is far more than just a design variant: it combines the coveted wide Turbo body with the technology of the 911 Turbo —including the braking system and suspension.
This means:

  • maximum presence thanks to the wide track
  • outstanding brakes
  • handling that perfectly combines stability and precision

Unlike the Carrera S, the 4S isn’t just a “Turbo look” but offers the corresponding technical depth. That’s exactly what makes it so desirable to connoisseurs.

Engine: the top-of-the-line version

Equipped with the Varioram engine, this vehicle represents the latest and most powerful evolution of the air-cooled six-cylinder. A powertrain that delivers not only performance but character—spontaneous, eager to rev, and unadulterated.

The color: individuality at the highest level

The rare pastel yellow is far more than just a paint job—it’s a clear statement. In a world of black, silver, and gray, this vehicle deliberately stands for individuality and the courage to embrace color. Combined with the wide 4S body, it creates a visual presence that is both classic and extraordinary.

The condition: benchmark quality

The key figures speak for themselves—and are virtually impossible to find in this condition:

  • only 62,500 km on the odometer
  • entirely in its original paint
  • even original glass
  • Underbody in a condition reminiscent of a new vehicle

Nothing here has been “restored,” but rather preserved over the years. It is precisely this authenticity that makes the difference.

History: unusual yet ideal

Originally produced for country code C32 (Saudi Arabia / Gulf States), this vehicle was never driven there in everyday use.
After just three months, it arrived in Switzerland as a new car—at the Porsche Center Zurich. A history that combines both exclusivity and perfect traceability.

Documentation & Originality: Complete and Verifiable

A vehicle of this class thrives on its traceability—and this is precisely where this 993 sets the standard:

  • Complete vehicle documentation
  • complete service booklet
  • both original keys
  • Both emissions certificates
  • Complete set of onboard tools
  • Porsche certificate of origin
  • Confirmation of matching numbers

A complete package that is rarely found even in the collector's market.

Conclusion: an overall picture that is truly impressive

What makes this Porsche so special is not a single feature—but the sum of all its qualities:

  • one of the last air-cooled models
  • the coveted 4S version
  • the rare and striking color scheme
  • exceptional original condition
  • a clear, traceable history
  • Complete documentation down to the last detail

A vehicle that inspires emotionally and impresses technically.

Or to put it another way: A 993 that isn’t just sought after—it’s waiting to be found.

Further details in brief:

  • Fresh from Swiss vehicle inspection (MFK)
  • Fresh from service, including new spark plugs
  • Major service performed in December 2021 at 58,774 km for CHF 10,300: New original Porsche ignition distributor installed, all fluids replaced, all valve cover gaskets renewed, and much more.
  • 1. Delivered from Porsche Center Dubai
  • Re-imported as a new car from AMAG Porsche Zurich in July 1998 with delivery mileage
  • Has been exclusively in Swiss ownership since then.
  • Original bumpers and turn signals from the Arab market are available and can be reinstalled without leaving any residue upon customer request
  • The advantage of an Arab vehicle over, for example, a US vehicle that also has the same body bumpers is that Arab vehicles use the same metric system as we do in Europe, meaning the speedometer is already in kph and does not need to be converted from miles. This completely rules out incorrect conversions or speedometer tampering, meaning the original mileage is just 62,500 km.
  • Furthermore, as already mentioned, the vehicle was designed exclusively as an Arab vehicle but has been registered and driven solely in Switzerland.
