The 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S, part of the celebrated 993 generation (1995–1998), represents the final chapter of the air-cooled era. Pairing the wide-body design of the Turbo with a naturally aspirated 285-PS flat-six and all-wheel drive, it offered a rare blend of style, performance, and usability. Distinctive features included “Turbo-look” 18-inch alloy wheels, wider tires, larger brakes with red calipers, and suspension components shared with the 911 Turbo. The result was a car admired for its aggressive stance, refined handling, and enhanced capability over the standard Carrera. As one of the last Porsche models with an air-cooled flat-six, the Carrera 4S remains a firm favorite.

Finished on 19 November 1996, this German-market 993 Carrera 4S was ordered in the exceptionally rare shade of Forest Green Metallic (Tannengrün Metallic) over a coordinated interior in Classic Grey Supple leather. It features the sporting six-speed manual transmission and was optioned with Infra Red Security System, Green-tinted Windshield, Raised Brake Light, Porsche CDR 21 CD-Radio, Heated Front Seats Package, Instrument Dials Painted in Interior Color (X45), Five Open CD Holders in Console (X52), Rear Window Wiper, Left-side Full Power Seat, Hi-Fi Sound Package with Speakers, and On-Board Computer.

Its original service book accompanying the sale reveals that this Carrera 4S was regularly maintained by Official Porsche Centers by its original owner until 2001. That year it was imported to France with less than 60,000 km, remaining with the same French family for the next 21 years. Beginning in 2010, while under their care, independent specialists Ets O-One have been responsible for its regular maintenance. In 2022, the car was acquired by its most recent owner who, like nearly everyone who sees it, fell head over heels for the C4S’s incredible color combination. That same year it received its most recent service at 95,840 km with just 1,500 km added since then.
