We are pleased to offer this 1997 Porsche 911 Turbo finished in Arctic Silver Metallic over Classic Grey leather. The last generation of the air-cooled 911 Turbo, the 993 model debuted a new twin-turbocharged flat-six engine paired with an all-wheel-drive system and 6-speed manual transmission. This 1997 example had been with its last owner since 2016 while driven sparingly with just over 3k miles added since. Equipped with factory optional Sport Seats and a custom-made steering wheel, this Turbo is now being offered by its seller out of Florida showing approximately 19k miles on the odometer.
This 993 comes finished in Arctic Silver Metallic (L92U) with factory Litronic Bi-Xenon headlamps, a tinted top windscreen, red-painted brake calipers, and lightweight 18” Technology hollow spoke wheels fitted with Turbo-logo center caps. The car rides on a set of Michelin Pilot Sport tires from 2015 and the seller believes both the front and rear bumpers to have been previously refinished. A few minor cosmetic imperfections are also noted on the rims and front bumper, detailed images can be found in the gallery along with paint meter readings and a clean CARFAX report.
The cabin is appointed with Classic Grey (TF) full leather upholstery including optional Sport Seats with electric height adjustment. Other features include upgraded pedal covers, a custom-shaped steering wheel with perforated grips, an electric sunroof, automatic speed control, a 6-disc remote CD changer, and a sound system with an original Porsche CR210 radio. A rear window wiper and onboard computer are also equipped as standard.
The air-cooled 3.6L flat-six engine features twin K-16 turbochargers, dual-charge air intercoolers, and Bosch Motronic M 5.2 engine management. A 6-speed manual transmission sends up to 408 HP and 398 lb.-ft of torque to all four wheels while stopping power is handled by fixed 4-piston aluminum Brembo brake calipers paired with 322mm cross-drilled rotors front and rear. The dynamic limited-slip system with Active Brake Differential (ABD) and a limited-slip differential are also equipped as standard. The CARFAX report includes 6 service history records dating as far back as 2012 and a collection of maintenance invoices is provided for reference in the gallery. The seller reports the last oil and filter change was completed in January of 2022.
This sale will include a set of three keys, owner's manuals, service records, and a clean title.

@Narbeh 108 is the front driver side of the car. It’s most likely water from when we washed the car. For photos The other photos of the underside of the car are all clean and photos of the underside of the engine so not show leaks. Yes all cars and especially PCars leak but this car as mentioned was always very well cared for. Someone on here came and inspected the car in person and they were impressed with how nice the car was in person.
@Rsalkow shoot me a DM and will send you the address and contact info.
@K2Motorcars Thank you for getting back to me. I will try to coordinate with specialist to view the vehicle.
Please provide exact address.
Thanks again.
@K2Motorcars 108 for example. My mistake, however, it appears as though that is towards the front of the car. But still, I see something. Speaking from experience of being a current 98 993 c2s owner, and as the saying goes, "they all leak" to a certain extent. I am curious what I am seeing as well.
@Rsalkow Yes, please feel free to come by tomorrow if you’d like. We’re in Jupiter, FL. Happy to show you the car and take you out in it if you’d like.
Would it be possible to inspect this car? Concerned about paint meter readings.If so where are you located.
Thank you,
Ron Salkow
@Narbeh good eye...
@Narbeh Can you please confirm the picture/pictures you are referring to? The car was just serviced at the end of January which is pictured. If there were any other issues that were noticed the owner would have had them addressed. The owner didn't spare any expense in servicing this car per all of the records shown.
@K2Motorcars photos from the undercarriage clearly show fresh leaks likely at the driver side valve cover. Have you pulled the lower engine cover and taken any photos? Could help alleviate concerns raised by others here.
@dxcleblanc This is a Dealer Sale on behalf of one of our very good clients/friends. There will be no dealer fees associated with the sale of this car.

Can seller advise if this is a private party sale or a dealer sale.
@stim4u There are no known leaks. The car was just serviced and it has always been extremely well maintained especially by the current owner. The brakes to our knowledge our original OEM. Aer you asking if there is any rust on the front Driver/Passenger side A-Pillar? There are no signs of rust on the car at all. I can take some photos today if you tell me specifically where you want to see.
Any known or current leaks, main seal
Leaks? Was there front pillar rusting? Brakes original or updated? Thanks in advance.
@K2Motorcars it’s readying 9s, 10s , almost everywhere that’s for sure paintwork , it should read 4-5 for original , i see it reads 4.5 on the actual sun roof
@allthingsporsches No PPF installed on the car. All I know to have been repainted is the front bumper and rear spoiler.
Has the whole car got repainted ? Or there’s PPF on it ?
