Showing only 279 miles on the odometer, this impeccably preserved 1995 Porsche 993 Carrera Cabriolet is finished in Grand Prix White over a black leather interior. It features signatures from Walter Röhrl and is factory-equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission, an optional limited-slip differential, Automatic Brake Differential (ABD), power-adjustable Sport Seats, the HiFi Sound System with Nokia Digital Sound Processing (DSP), and 17” Cup 2 alloy wheels. Originally registered in New Jersey, this 993 relocated to Germany in 2011 where it remained until 2024. An outstanding example of the final air-cooled 911, this 993 Carrera Cabriolet is now being offered for auction out of California.
This 993 is finished in Grand Prix White (L908) with a black power-operated convertible top. Equipment includes projector headlights, headlamp washers, integrated fog lights, heated power mirrors, a “basket handle” brake light spoiler, a speed-activated rear decklid spoiler, dual exhaust outlets, and optional 17” Cup 2 alloy wheels with colored Porsche crest center caps and Michelin Pilot A/S 4 tires from 2023. The fuel filler door is signed by Le Mans-winning Porsche race car driver Walter Röhrl. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
The black interior features optional power-adjustable leather Sport Seats, a four-spoke leather steering wheel, Porsche-branded floor mats, and a glovebox door signed by Walter Röhrl. Other accessories include power windows, a remote central locking system, automatic climate control, cruise control, a Porsche CR-1 cassette stereo, and HiFi Sound System with Nokia Digital Sound Processing (DSP).
Rated at 270 HP and 243 lb.-ft of torque, the air-cooled 3.6-liter flat-six engine drives the rear wheels through a 6-speed manual transmission with an optional limited-slip and Automatic Brake Differential (ABD). The seller indicates the brake lines, brake master cylinder, clutch cylinders, fuel pump, fuel filter, spark plugs, and engine oil were replaced in 2023. Service records are provided for reference in the gallery along with an inspection report from August 2024.
This sale will include owner’s manuals, a toolkit, a spare tire, a tire inflator, a front bra, European-spec taillights, and a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: "Thank you for visiting our Auction. This is such a cool time capsule and a true collector vehicle. The only as-new 993 Cabriolet in the world! This car comes with all the original extra items you would see in 1995. The air compressor, tool kit, jack, tonneau cover, owner's manual, and pouch. This car even has an original factory bra. Not a clear bra, an actual bra that is fitted over the front bumper, front of hood and fenders."

I've owned two 1995 993s, and several 1996-1998s as well. Both 1995 cars were the most fun to drive despite the slight increase in power of the 1996-1998 models. Makes no sense, I realize; just my observation. All were sub 30,000 mile cars and well maintained so it wasn't because the 1995s were in better condition than the later year models.
150K RNM just two months ago. Drive it and don't worry about a possible decline in value? Or continue to store it? My bet is that it will continue to hibernate regardless of whether or not it sells.
Ryan will win this car... I am not the Ryan that will win this car haha
Absolutely stunning!
Good Morning to all Auction watchers and bidders. Please reach out with any questions!!
@CarBuyer5000 Thank you for the review ! Our detailer said the autograph on the fuel filler lid could be removed easily but since this is a personal thing we are leaving that for the new owner to decide.
These are really fun cars. I have 1997 Cabriolet with about 15,000 miles on it and it feels almost brand new but this car really IS brand new!
What I love about the 993 Cab is that it is a car you can take anywhere and not be worried about it and you can certainly drive it every day. I'd suggest pulling the radio and replacing it with the Porsche Classic radio so now you've got some of the convenience of a modern car (bluetooth, nav, phone integration, Apple CarPlay) but in something that's really fun and engaging to drive. Be sure to keep the original radio though!
As for the signed parts - I'd get those parts replaced and then keep the originals and display them somewhere with my other car memorabilia. The gas cap signature looks like it's already starting to wear off. It would be a shame to damage those. Walter is a legend! But if it were my car back in the day I would have had him just sign the underside of the front trunk or engine cover. The gas cap kind of looks like graffiti to me and I be worried someone would see that and want to add their signature to my car. Of course I would immediately cover this car in clear paint protection film as well.
Good luck to the bidders. You will love driving this car!

Epic beauty. Unbelievable condition. I may pine away a bit here, say a wee prayer and imagine it sitting next to my black 993 C2S. This is gonna help define anyone’s collection. IMHO can’t argue with purity.
