Finished in Lapis Blue Metallic over Black full leather, this 2004 Porsche 996 Carrera 4S Cabriolet pairs a 6-speed manual transmission with its naturally aspirated 3.6-liter flat-six engine and all-wheel-drive system. Factory options include 18” Turbo Look II wheels, the Bose High-End Sound Package, the Aluminum Look Package, Porsche-crested headrests, bi-xenon headlights with washers, and stainless-steel exhaust pipes. Initially registered in Kentucky and Texas before being acquired by the current owner in New Mexico in 2019, this example benefits from an IMS bearing, clutch, and throw-out bearing replacement completed in October 2018. Showing approximately 40k miles on the odometer, it is now being offered for auction by its seller out of New Mexico.
Compared to the standard 996 Carrera, the 4S version features 911 Turbo-style bumpers and rockers, wider fenders, and a unique rear reflector strip spanning the taillights. This example is finished in Lapis Blue Metallic with a Metropol Blue cabriolet roof. Options include bi-xenon headlights with washers, exclusive stainless-steel exhaust pipes, and 18” Turbo Look II wheels with colored Porsche crests. The seller notes a 4” scratch above the left rear wheel, along with minor signs of road wear on the lower front valance. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
The cabin presents Black full leather upholstery accented by the Aluminum Look Package (Large). Additional options include the Bose High-End Sound Package and exclusive Porsche-crested headrests. A Pioneer DIVX MIXTRAX stereo system with a remote was installed under prior ownership. Both the visor mirror covers and the ashtray lid are broken.
Factory-rated at 315 HP and 273 lb-ft of torque, the naturally aspirated 3.6-liter flat-six engine drives all four wheels through a 6-speed manual transmission. The 4S Cabriolet can accelerate from 0-60 MPH in approximately 5 seconds with a top speed of over 170 MPH while stopping power comes from Turbo-derived fixed 4-piston brakes with 330mm cross-drilled discs at each corner. Prior to the seller’s ownership, the IMS bearing, clutch, and throw-out bearing were replaced at Auto Hans European Car Repair in Addison, Texas, in April 2019. Subsequent maintenance was performed at Automotive Resources in Santa Fe, New Mexico, including an inspection and recommended repairs in November 2021, followed by another inspection, recommended repairs, an oil change, a drive belt replacement, and cleaning of the radiator outlet in August 2025. Detailed service records are provided in the gallery.
This sale will include a clean title, owner’s manuals, two keys, a toolkit, and a windscreen.
The seller would like you to know: “I have owned this car since 4/19. I believe I am the second owner. Sold to me by Auto Hans in Addison, Texas, a respected German car maintenance facility. Auto Hans replaced the IMS bearing, clutch, and throw-out bearing just before my purchase. Always garaged. Just serviced (see copy attached). Cabrio ready for fall fun.”

Please see last photo in gallery. I just backed it out and took the picture with my Iphone just after sunrise. Lapis Blue is dark blue.
Fronts both 0820. Right rear 0720. Left rear 1121. I had a sidewall puncture of the left rear, so Tire Rack replaced the left rear tire. They are Sumitumo ZRs. The wear on the steering wheel was there when I bought the car. So I do not know what caused the wear. Car has not been repainted. I think the photographer that PCar sent up to photograph the car over exposed some of the pictures. The photos were taken on a very bright high altitude day. The car is dark blue. The videos show the color good.
Hello, could you provide date codes for the tires please ? What happened to the steering wheel ? Has the car been repainted ? Thanks

Welcome to the auction. I am here to answer any questions you may have about my 911. In my opinion my car is as good as any 996 I have ever seen. Please advise your thoughts. Thanks.
