The result was the purist rear-wheel drive 993 Carrera S, in which only the wider body was adopted from the Turbo and which today enjoys particular appeal among collectors and connoisseurs alike. In the last two model years of the 993 series, a total of just 4,707 of these were built, of which only 3,343 left the production line as manual models. This small number alone makes the last air-cooled Turbolook special model a rarity even today.
This Porsche 993 Carrera S from German delivery is a particularly rare example in terms of mileage and history. Thanks to regular maintenance in combination with the classic and elegant color combination, its condition deserves the rating "particularly valuable".
The car was registered as a Porsche AG works car on 04.11.1996. The special equipment includes the factory lowering (option code M033). In addition to air conditioning, this vehicle was fitted with Litronic headlights, an electric sunroof and 18″ Techno wheels - better known as 993 Turbo hollow-spoke rims - instead of the standard 17″ Cup wheels.
Inside, the sports car unabashedly embraces luxury: front and rear seats in blue leather, semi-electric with heated seats for driver and front passenger.
Purchased from a Porsche collector in southern Germany in 2014, the car is in a very well-kept condition with a current mileage of approx. 87,800 kilometers and promises many kilometers of pure driving pleasure with above-average potential for value appreciation.
Conclusion: For me, this is the most attractive and interesting 993 from the classic air-cooled 911 series. A 993 Carrera S is rare and the purist WTL version is more agile and sportier to drive than the 4S. This vehicle is probably one of the few German 993 Carrera S in this condition due to its history with the low mileage and the equipment in the classic color combination.

Vehicle condition and assessment (according to the knowledge and statement of the vehicle owner and a visual inspection):
Bodywork
The bodywork is in standard condition all round.
The body is well protected against rust in all respects.
Exterior paintwork
Based on the paint layer measurements carried out and the resulting values on the body parts, it can be assumed that the paintwork is still predominantly original.
Add-on parts
All of the vehicle's add-on parts are complete. They are largely in immaculate condition all round. There are only a few traces of stone chipping here too.
Glazing
The vehicle's glazing is largely free of stone chips and scratches.
Interior
Seats and trim
The entire seating system and the side panels as well as the headlining and the center console are in very good condition.
There is no damage.
instruments
The vehicle has the standard instruments, which are all in technically and visually perfect condition.
All instruments function properly.
The steering wheel is the original component of the vehicle, which is in very good condition with no significant signs of wear.
There is no damage to the entire interior of the vehicle.
Engine units
According to research by the vehicle owner based on the traceable history, it can be assumed that the engine and transmission are the original units of the vehicle.
No revisions have been necessary to date, but all necessary maintenance measures have been carried out so that the engine functions perfectly in all temperature, speed and load ranges. There are no suspicious noises or smoke development.
Auxiliary units
All auxiliary units such as the injection system, ignition system, starter, alternator, etc. are in perfect technical condition and all function perfectly.
Drive
The vehicle's transmission shifts smoothly under all load conditions and there are no suspicious noises.
The gearbox works perfectly.
Chassis and brake system
As far as can be seen, all four brake disks are largely in very good condition.
All maintenance work has been carried out on the brake system and the chassis, so that the vehicle functions perfectly in all driving conditions.
Wheels and tires
The wear is even across the entire tire widths, which is an unmistakable indication that the chassis is perfectly adjusted and works accordingly.
These tires are mounted on the original Porsche 18″ Technorad rims (identical to the 993 Turbo rims). The rims are in almost mint condition.
Electrics and lighting
The entire electrical system is almost in delivery condition. No changes have been made here, but all care and maintenance measures have been carried out so that the entire electrical system functions properly in all areas.
