Up for auction is this tastefully configured 1996 Porsche 993 Targa Tiptronic presented in Grand Prix White over a Dark Blue leather interior. Representing one of only 462 examples built for the U.S. market, this Targa highlights a special color combination along with power/heated seats and factory wood accents. Having been diligently maintained by an authorized Porsche dealership over the past seven years, this 993 remains in exceptional overall condition showing approximately 40k miles on the odometer.
As seen in the photo gallery, the Grand Prix White finish on this Targa shows to be in exceptional condition. The seller has stored this Targa in a climate controlled garage ever since his purchase from a respected Porsche specialist in Southern California. The 993 generation debuted a completely redesigned Targa top system which uses an electrically operated sliding glass roof. This new system eliminated the inconvenience of having to store the top when not in use. This Targa rides on a set of factory 17” 2-piece Speedline-style wheels which come dressed in Michelin tires.
This 993 showcases a beautifully appointed Midnight Blue leather interior with rich wood trim accents and Coco Mats. All gauges, electrical components and accessories are said to be fully functional. When new, this Targa was ordered with an extensive amount of factory options such as:
A naturally aspirated 3.6L flat-six engine sends 272 HP to the rear wheels by way of a smooth and refined 4-speed automatic Tiptronic-S transmission. Using this powertrain, the 993 Targa is capable of accelerating from 0-60 MPH in approximately 6.3 seconds while reaching a top speed of 168 MPH. Records confirm this vehicle to be up-to-date on all scheduled service and the seller states that the alternator was replaced last year. Displaying just over 40k miles on the odometer, this Targa is being offered for auction in excellent driving condition.
The sale of this 993 will include a set of two keys, original books and documentation, service records, a jack, air compressor, toolkit, and clear title. Do not miss this incredible opportunity to own a rare and highly original Porsche 993 Targa.
