Porsche 993 Carrera S

Porsche 993 Carrera S

Coupé, 1998

Highlights

  • Carrera S - hand switch - last series (W program / MJ. 98)
  • 42,500 km, complete history from the 1st day
  • Selected special equipment, very rare "rear-seat-delete" option

Porsche 993 Carrera S.

The Porsche 911 Carrera S offered here is one of only 3,343 hand-shifted vehicles from the 993 series that left the factory in Zuffenhausen with the turbo-wide body. While the Carrera S was only built for just under 2 years, model year 98 marked the final peak in the evolution of air-cooled Porsches. The number of units in the so-called W program results in a manageable number of less than 1,000 Carrera Ss with manual shifting that were produced in this last model year, which was so memorable for enthusiasts.

The vehicle in detail

Compared to the all-wheel-drive Carrera 4S, the rear-wheel drive Carrera S weighs around 50kg less – in the case of this particular 911 it should be even a few kilos less because it has the extremely rare rear storage compartments ex works, which are the rear seats completely replace and convey the interior feeling of a thoroughbred two-seater. The classic gray interior, together with other hand-picked original options such as the full leather seats, aluminum-carbon accents and door sill trims made of brushed stainless steel with etched model lettering, create the high-quality impression of one of the most beautiful, puristic, timeless sports coupés of its time.

The outer contours of the curvy turbo body with the split and car-colored ventilation grille of the rear spoiler, which is exclusively built into the Carrera S, are magnificently staged by the arctic silver metallic paint. On the rear window, no wipers, which were installed very often, disturb the view when gliding along the roof contour.

The vehicle was only moved seasonally by its 3 previous owners known to us and was well maintained above average. The exceptional service history is seamless, the mileage is documented by the checkbook and numerous invoices. The first owner even kept a logbook, the entries of which are also part of the meaningful vehicle history.

During the most recent inspection in August 2020, the Carrera S received, in addition to the usual fluids, new V-belts and a set of Pirelli P-Zero, of course with the latest Porsche N4 approval.

Conclusion

With its flawless history, low mileage and special configuration, this rare, original 993 Carrera S from the last air-cooled model year represents a solid automotive investment and is also one of the most beautiful sculptural driving machines of its time.
