Porsche 996 Turbo

Here’s an excerpt:

Speed Yellow—The Quintessential Porsche Yellow

“The Speed Yellow mentioned above has graced Porsche models since 1993. While it’s actually found relatively often on the Porsche 911—and later on the Boxster and Cayman as well—only a few Porsche drivers have chosen Speed Yellow.

It’s listed under the color codes X4, 2H, or (L)12G. Speed Yellow, just like Signal Yellow, can only be ordered through the Paint-to-Select (PTS) program. Speed Yellow is generally a relatively common Porsche yellow. Nevertheless, the 911 GT3 and GT2 in this color are usually snapped up quickly. True to its name, prospective buyers should act fast!”

And here we are now, standing in front of the 996 Turbo in Speed Yellow. Whether we’re standing right in front of the car or watching it drive by on the street: it’s pure joy for us. If we’d bought it new back then in silver or black, we’d be kicking ourselves today.

Fortunately, the first owner of this 911 Turbo didn’t think like your typical businessman and wanted this special, one-of-a-kind car back then.

Enough philosophizing—let’s get to the facts:

It’s not just the Speed Yellow paint and the coveted Turbo seats that make this 996 Turbo a highly sought-after collector’s car—it’s also the fact that it features its original paint and original glass. Yes, you read that correctly: Every measurable part of the car is free of repainting—in other words, over the entire 26 years, the body panels have never been repainted, and even the windshield has never been replaced. It’s unbelievable when you consider how often you have to replace the windshield due to stone chips alone—and here you have a sports car with its original paint and complete original glass.

For these reasons, we’re all the more delighted to offer you this collector’s 996 Turbo.

Here’s a summary of the key details:

– Just had a major service, including new spark plugs and a complete front and rear brake system

– Swiss-registered vehicle from a reputable third-hand previous owner

– Delivered by Porsche AMAG Lausanne; not imported

– Equipped with the rare, optional Turbo hollow-spoke wheels. Visually, they are the same as the standard Turbo wheels, but the hollow-spoke version is significantly lighter and was an expensive option at the time, costing an additional approximately CHF 10,000

– Very well-maintained condition, from a reputable previous owner

– Collector’s car with only 78,950 km

– Drives and shifts absolutely flawlessly. Even by today’s standards, the power delivery is still brutal and, thanks to the crisp 6-speed manual transmission, offers pure driving pleasure!

– Bank financing available; feel free to contact us for a no-obligation inquiry

– Viewings by appointment only
