This 1999 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet is a first-generation 996 featuring a traditional cable-actuated throttle for its 3.4-liter flat-six engine as well as a 6-speed manual transmission sending power to the rear wheels.

This one-owner Carrera is now being offered for auction by the selling dealer out of Illinois with approximately 49k miles showing on the odometer.

Litronic headlamps with washers were also selected. Other factory equipment includes integrated front fog lights, a speed-activated rear spoiler, and dual exhaust outlets. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.

The cabin presents Savanna Beige leather upholstery featuring optional 8-way power-adjustable and heated seats with driver’s seat memory functions. Exclusive Dark Burr Maple accents were selected for the gear lever knob, handbrake lever, side air vents, defroster trim, speaker covers, center air vent bracket, dashboard trim strip, instrument surround, door panel parts, and steering wheel. Additionally, aluminum-look instrument faces, a leather-covered ignition lock surround, and stainless-steel door entry guards with model insignias were opted for. The seller notes light wear on the seats and carpet and adds that an optional wind deflector is included in the sale.

The seller would like you to know: “The new water-cooled 911 was a shock to the system when introduced to the automotive world in 1997. Yet, today, it is obvious that the change was necessary, with the progression delivering all manner of fantastic and collectible Porsche sports cars over the past 25 years. On the leading edge of that revolution were cars like this 1999 911 Carrera Cabriolet. The Cabriolet was designed in concert with the Coupe, eliminating much of the potential harshness from the typical open-topped variant. What had shocked many just a few years earlier had turned into a sales success, with Porsche enthusiasts warming to the idea of a water-cooled 911 and ordering well-optioned examples like this one that features a wonderful options color combination, a six-speed manual transmission and 15 ‘X-Code’ optioned from Porsche Exclusive.”
