We are pleased to offer this low mileage 2004 Porsche 996 Carrera 4S Cabriolet finished in Carrara White over a Metropol Blue full leather interior. In addition to its attractive color combination and desirable 6-speed manual gearbox, this 996 showcases a number of exclusive options including aluminum interior details, stainless-steel exhaust pipes, and the rare X51 Carrera Power Kit which brings the output up to 345 HP. Highlighting a clean two-owner history on CARFAX with the first 15 years spent under the care of the original owner, this collector-grade Carrera 4S is now being offered for auction by its seller out of Missouri while showing just under 4,500 miles on the odometer,
This example is finished in Carrara White with a Metropol Blue Cabriolet top to match the interior. A ceramic coating has been applied and the paint is said to be in excellent original condition, detailed images are provided in the photo gallery along with paint meter readings. As a Carrera 4S, this 996 features the wide fenders and revised bumpers of the Turbo model, as well as a model-specific reflector band between the taillights. Exclusive stainless steel exhaust pipes can be seen in the rear, and this example rides on factory 18” Turbo Twist wheels equipped with optional colored Porsche center crests and Michelin tires.
Inside, this 4S is appointed with a premium Metropol Blue full leather interior complemented by exclusive aluminum instrument dials as well as a shifter and brake handle in leather/aluminum. Other factory details include supple leather front and rear seats, the Bose High-End Sound Package, and Xenon Headlamp Package. All gauges and accessories are said to be fully functional including the power cabriolet top.
Power comes from a naturally aspirated 3.6L flat-six engine paired with a 6-speed manual transmission that drives all four wheels. With the optional X51 Carrera Power Kit adding a revised intake, exhaust, and engine tuning, this 4S is capable of generating as much as 345 HP. From the factory, this 4S also features the larger brakes and suspension setup from the Turbo model. An IMS bearing upgrade was previously carried out by Porsche, and CARFAX shows the last documented service to have been performed by an authorized Porsche dealer in 2020 at 4,165 miles.
This sale will include a set of two keys, original owner's books, and a clean title. With its sought-after factory specifications and impeccably low-mileage, this highly-original 996 makes an excellent investment as well as a fantastic addition to any Porsche collection.

@Seavee37 That has happened to me about a year ago, so I can appreciate your feeling.
This car will be a nice addition in my garage parked next to two 996TT’s, an 01 Orient Red and a 04 blue both with under 10k miles.
@Seavee37 you have a valid complaint. I never saw his bid either. I was watching this closely. Very strange
Congrats Major!! My phone must be al little slow because I never saw your last bid!!! ????

@luis.seneriz The car was built with option code 750; "Delete Cabriolet Hardtop".
Bid in the amount of $42,000
Do you have the hard top?? That’s the only missing feature that would make this one a perfect one.
@leeber good thing for you there are many other Porsches out there for you to enjoy. Good luck on your hunt.
i have been looking for a 996 4s cab in white with x51 ever since seeing it in european market with 45k miles. havent seen many of them in USA, and certainly not in cab. this one has too few miles for me that will drive the price to high for what my needs are.... i want it for dd, hence the "dream car" aspect of my earlier post.
Bid in the amount of $39,000
@Mercyhealth It won't hurt the 996 market for sure but this car is exceptional! Find another with these options, miles and colors.......WOW
@DriverM if you are correct in your prediction then all of 996 Nation will do a collective backflip.
Bid in the amount of $37,000
@Red911turbo Yes, email me details and I'll give you a number.
I normally do not like when people make predictions as to the final sale price of a car. All I will say is that the first number on the final sale of this beauty will not be a 4 or a 5..........My 2 cents....
@Mercyhealth I actually sold my White 996 C4S Cab right here on Pcar with excellent results. I think this car will blow past my recent sale and that Emeril car............BAAAMMMMM.

Will someone please buy my 2007 Arctic Silver 911 Carrera S with Sport Chrono with 108k extremely well-cared miles, so I can buy this....my dream 911.
@DriverM the only one that comes close to this beauty was Emril’s car which sold at 50,250.00 on another site recently. I held the 50k bid until the last 2 seconds when a sniper bid took me out. It was somewhat bitter sweet for me. Good luck!!!
I see a new benchmark coming for a 996 C4S Cab..........Oh my.........excuse me whilst I wipe my drool......
Bid in the amount of $35,000
Can you take trades on this since it’s a dealership.

@Dino356987 - I did see your build sheet, so I assume that is a no on Factory Sticker ? correct
@theautoboutique $111,565 build sheet is listed.
@Dino356987 - what about the factory sticker ?
@theautoboutique I'm sorry no
can you take a picture of the bumper with the bracket off ?
@theautoboutique Yes it is, some people put plugs in the holes, I know Suncoast Porsche sells them.
Do you have the factory window sticker ?
Is the front license plate bracket screwed into the bumper ?
Bid in the amount of $32,750
Beautiful example and very well presented. Wish I was in the market right now as this would definitely be on my list. In my opinion, the 996 C4S was one of the most handsome 911's ever built, and the color combination and condition of this particular car are very impressive. GLWTA.
Bid in the amount of $30,000
This is a blue chip 996.
@GuzziBill Date codes on the tires are, LR 17/2019 -DF 01/2019 - RF 01/2019 - RR 18/2019
Dino356987, Please post details about the age of the tires. Thank you.
Bid in the amount of $25,000
@Dino356987 Thank you that is very helpful.
@Dino356987 very cool. I did not know that could be done. Can you give us the name of the shop so we can do some online investigation.
@GuzziBill I have an upholstery shop that can add heated seats for $1800.00
@Mercyhealth I have an upholstery shop that can add heated seats for $1800.00
Bid in the amount of $10,000
@GuzziBill as you can see this is a beautiful car. Love the seat color. As far as seat replacement wow that would probably be almost as much as the car itself. I’m guessing 10-15k per seat. And that’s assuming you could source Metropol Blue seats with heaters.
2 options one bring a heating pad in the car and plug it in. Second (shameless advertising here sorry Pcarmarket) go to another big online auction site which now has a 997 PTS cab with heated seats.
But back to this 996 C4S example stunning to say the least and wrapper fresh! With the X51 package it’s all you need.
Love the car but my wife will insist on heated seats. Any idea what the cost would be to add heat to the front seats?
