Officially, there was no special model for the 993. However, the Carrera S in Vesuvio could certainly be considered as such, as there was even a special edition flyer for this vehicle from Porsche.
The Vesuvio model is characterized by a number of optical applications that were not found in any other vehicle:
Rim stars, rear grille, mirrors, door handles, gear knob, handbrake and instrument rings are in the special accent color steel grey and harmonize perfectly with the special Vesuvio metallic color. Unfortunately, the exact number of units is currently unknown, but Internet research suggests an estimated 120 vehicles.
The vehicle was registered via the Porsche Center Augsburg on 07.04.1997 and delivered to the first owner, E. GmbH & Co KG in Schwabmünchen.
On 27.04.1999, the vehicle was sold to the second owner, Mr. Alexander R. in Munich.
On 25.02.2022, the vehicle was registered to the third owner, Mr. Wolfgang S. in Ahrensburg.
2 years later, in March 2024, our customer bought the vehicle. Due to a new life situation, this customer is currently parting with all his vehicles.
This means that the vehicle has demonstrably had 4 owners in 28 years. All vehicle registration documents are available as proof.
