Finished in Paint to Sample Midnight Blue Metallic over a Classic Grey leather interior, this 1997 Porsche 993 Turbo was purchased new from Porsche Cincinnati and remained under the care of its original owner up until August of 2020.  The car was ordered in a custom metallic Paint to Sample color along with optional supple leather seats.  It was serviced with new tires, spark plugs, and Bilstein shocks before it was acquired by the current owner on PCARMARKET in 2021. Driven very sparingly since, this 993 Turbo is now being offered for auction by its seller out of Massachusetts.

The exterior is finished in the custom Paint to Sample color of Midnight Blue Metallic (L37W) and features wide fenders, 18” Technology hollow-spoke wheels, red Brembo brake calipers, and a body-colored rear spoiler. The factory wheels were dressed in a set of new Continental ExtremeContact Sport tires in 2021. A few small chips are noted on the front end, detailed images are provided in the gallery along with paint meter readings and an accident-free CARFAX report.

The Classic Grey leather interior is appointed with matching carpets and optional supple leather upholstery on the front and rear seats. Other options include heated front seats, a sunroof, cruise control, and CDR-210 radio. A rear window wiper, onboard computer, Litronic xenon headlights, and power-operated seats are also equipped as standard.

The 993 Turbo derives up to 408 HP and 398 lb.-ft of torque from an air-cooled 3.6L flat-six engine equipped with twin K16 turbochargers and dual-charge air intercoolers. A 6-speed manual transmission drives all four wheels.  The dynamic limited-slip system with Active Brake Differential (ABD) and a limited-slip differential are equipped as standard along with red-painted fixed 4-piston aluminum brake calipers paired with 322mm rotors front and rear.  A full service was completed in 2021 including new spark plugs, tires, Bilstein B6 shock absorbers, and new brake rotors.

This sale will include the original owner’s manuals, toolkit, and a branded Massachusetts title. In August of 2020, the original odometer reportedly failed at 37,249 miles and a new 0-mile odometer was subsequently installed by Porsche Kings Valley.  The car was driven 463 miles with the new odometer before the prior seller acquired the car and had the original odometer rebuilt with 463 miles added to compensate for the difference.
