Marking the final generation of the air-cooled 911, this 1997 Cabriolet comes finished in Guards Red over a Cashmere Beige leather interior. Acquired from an authorized Porsche dealer, this 993 remains under the care of its second owner and is now being offered for auction by its seller out of Ohio showing approximately 51k miles.
This Carrera is finished in Guards Red with a black convertible soft top. The 18” Turbo-look wheels wear colored center crests. The seller adds that the convertible top was replaced one year ago, protective film has been placed at the rear fenders, and the front bumper has been refinished to address minor cosmetic damage. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a CARFAX report.
The cabin is upholstered with Cashmere Beige leather and includes 8-way power-adjustable front seats, cruise control, a 6-disc CD changer, and Nokia Digital Sound Processing.
The air-cooled 3.6-liter flat-six Varioram engine produces up to 282 HP, which is fed to the rear wheels through a 4-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission. The seller adds that extensive service history will accompany the sale.
This sale will include a clean title.

Any oil leaks? Passenger door handle seems like it’s broken? I’m Interested in the car… besides tires, paint correction, SAI, any other repairs needed? Trying to do estimates, thank you
Wonderful 993. Appreciate you answering some questions on it and uploading the records as you have. That means so much. If you have already made a Secondary Intake repair, would you kindly note that as well? Thanks. GLWA
@seller any chance of a driving video and convertible top operation? The cold start video does not offer much honestly, usually seller shows tail pipe on cold start video to for signs of white smoke or other warnings…
I realize these are a lot of asks but all of the above make a massive difference when it comes to bidder confidence. The SAI issue is a major repair that also has to be factored in like @dtortoise9 mentioned.
@pcarmarket, listing says car is in Boca raton FL, but when i contacted the seller he said it’s in panama city, FL. Please adjust the listing to reflect correct location of the car.
Bid in the amount of $20,000
@dtortoise9 I have no comment to either item.
Regarding mechanical issues I have repaired every item that has surfaced.
Regarding tires - there are few miles in them but they could be that old. They were put on in June of 2016. Mileage was 44,440.
Major to me would be a Secondary Air Injection issue- all 993 will have these at some point or dropping engine to reseal. I don't want to be spending a large amount ($7K+) right off the bat. Tires look to be December 2016 or 7 years old.
@dtortoise9 -ok. Just added pics of sone repairs. What you consider major is a mystery to me. I have many high dollar receipts for tires, brakes, etc. I am only sending anything out of ordinary.

@dtortoise9 I am trying but obviously am challenged. Will do as soon as I can.
Thanks for uploading tire dates and under hood option label. Can you do the same for any major (SAI or similar) repair invoice separately?

@dtortoise9 - I’m trying to respond but can’t figure out how to post photos. Stand by.
Can the owner post the following: the under front hood option code label, tire code dates and make, any major repair bills (SAI repair) so they can easily read? Thanks
