Powered by the venerable GT1-derived Mezger flat-six engine, the 996 Turbo remains one of the most desirable water-cooled 911’s to date. Boasting over 400 horsepower while offering refined, all-wheel drive handling, Car and Driver hailed the 996 Turbo’s performance as “simply intoxicating”. Featuring several high end performance upgrades as well as some expensive factory options, this 2002 example shows just 57,271 miles and is now being offered for auction in excellent condition out of Georgia.
Finished in gorgeous Arctic Silver Metallic, this Turbo features all original, meter-verified paint. The entirety of the exterior remains in excellent condition, bearing very minimal wear. This Turbo rides on flawless, aftermarket 3-piece forged lightweight wheels which beautifully complement its low and aggressive stance. The seller would like to note that the headlights do exhibit some minor, but fixable yellowing. Otherwise, this 2002 Turbo shows beautifully and is sure to turn some heads.
Inside, this 996 Turbo features a Graphite Gray full leather interior loaded with desirable factory options. This interior remains in excellent condition, only showing typical wear to the front seat bolster.

The car comes complete with fully functioning electronics including the upgraded navigation system.
Originally implemented in the iconic 911 GT1 Le Mans cars, the Mezger engine has become known to many enthusiasts as the greatest water-cooled engine ever created by Porsche. Utilizing a true dry sump and crank driven oil pumps, this engine resists oil surge during aggressive cornering. Additionally, the Mezger engine doesn’t suffer from IMS bearing related issues as its oil system ensures constant lubrication. This 996 Turbo’s engine sends 420hp to all four wheels via a crisp 6-speed manual transmission, allowing for a 0-60 time of just 4.2 seconds. Furthermore, this car features top of the line performance upgrades including a tune, Porsche carbon ceramic brakes (PCCB), full exhaust, and coil over suspension. These upgrades in combination with the Turbo’s already impressive handling and power make for a thrilling sports car that is sure to put a smile on the face of any driving enthusiast.
