Porsche 993 Turbo WLS 1

Porsche 993 Turbo WLS 1

Coupé, 1998

Punti salienti

  • Porsche "Sonderwunsch"
  • Rare opportunity!
  • Low mileage!

For many, the Porsche 993 Turbo is the holy grail among air-cooled 911s. However, this example goes one step further: it comes from its first owner, has been perfectly maintained, and is in a condition that would not look out of place in a museum. What’s more, its entire history has been carried out by a single Porsche dealer, and it is a VAT car!

The Porsche 993 Turbo marks the end of an era! The final chapter of the air-cooled 911s, built at a time when mechanical purity and engineering excellence still went hand in hand. At the same time, it was a technological milestone: for the first time, Porsche introduced a twin-turbo system, with one turbocharger per exhaust manifold — a revolutionary concept at the time that made the Turbo one of the most impressive sports cars of its generation. Yet, this is not just any 993 Turbo — as remarkable as that already is. This particular example takes things to a whole new level. A glance at the service book reveals the magical code “X50”, a discreet sign that this car is something truly special.

Il veicolo in dettaglio

Today, Porsche’s Sonderwunsch program allows buyers to choose from an extensive palette of colors, materials, and finishes. But in the 1990s, when the 993 was in production, Sonderwunsch went a step further. It wasn’t just personalization — it was true craftsmanship. Customers could request unique body styles, custom leather trims, or even mechanical modifications.

A few even opted for the famous “slant nose” conversion, or, as in this case, for a factory performance upgrade. This 993 Turbo is equipped with the extremely rare WLS 1 package (Werksleistungssteigerung 1), a factory option that increased power to 430 hp.

If you’ve never heard of the WLS 1 package, you’re not alone. Only a handful of 993 Turbos were fitted with it. Exact figures were never officially confirmed, but it is believed that around 528 examples were delivered in Europe — a very exclusive circle for such a legendary machine.

Finished in elegant Arctic Silver Metallic, this 993 Turbo exudes both subtlety and strength. Every inch of the car breathes authenticity; even the smallest details reveal that no modifications or compromises have ever been made. The car remains completely original and has been meticulously preserved — something that is clearly visible in every aspect.

The interior, trimmed in deep blue leather, offers a refined and serene contrast to the silver exterior. The combination is timeless, distinctly 1990s, yet still radiates exclusivity. Stepping inside feels like travelling back to 1998 — every detail, from the leather to the controls, is in perfect condition and appears untouched.

What truly sets this 993 Turbo apart is its provenance. The car comes from its first and only owner, something almost unheard of in the world of classic sports cars. Moreover, it hasn’t been driven on the road since 2004. It’s a sleeping gem — carefully stored, never neglected, and preserved in an extraordinary state of originality. Even the complete original tool kit is still present, along with the factory-stamped engine belts from 1997, proving the care and attention it has received over the years.

Despite its long rest, this Porsche has not been left dormant. It recently underwent a major service at Porsche, during which every component was thoroughly inspected, renewed where necessary, and brought to perfect mechanical condition. The result is a 993 Turbo that drives as if it just left the factory — precise, responsive, and full of that unmistakable character that rewards you with an irresistible surge of power.

This 993 Turbo with the WLS1 package is far more than just a collector’s item. It is a rare piece of Porsche history, perfectly capturing the transition from the analog to the modern era.
