SUMMARY
Simply stunning finished in special order Oak Green with an RS kit and Turbo wheels. Fresh to market from long-term private ownership.
DESCRIPTION
Offered here is a beautifully presented 993 Carrera Cabriolet finished in a rarely seen and extremely attractive special order paint colour Oak Green Metallic with Cashmere leather sports seats and black trim with black hood. First registered in the summer of 1997 as a well specified Porsche demonstrator featuring special paint, seamless Tiptronic gearbox, lowered suspension, electric height adjust sports seats, 18-inch Technology wheels (lightweight hollow spoke), Tiptronic buttons on the steering wheel, top-tint screen, air-conditioning and also fitted with RS body styling. Today this lovely 993 cabriolet has covered just 95,000 miles and presents in remarkable condition supported by a comprehensive service history.
Our vendor part-exchanged his 964 to purchase this Cabriolet from Porsche in 1998 and has maintained his pride and joy very well over the years keeping the car dry stored when not in use in a heated garage under a fitted cover on a trickle charger. After enjoying the Porsche for 24 years he now feels it's time for a change.
Accompanied by a its history file, the original book-pack and original service book stamped up to date with entries from Porsche and, more recently, specialist workshops. Also within the file are a wealth of supporting invoices, old MOTs, the current MOT valid until May 2023 and the car's V5C. Note – the private number shown in our images will not form part of the sale, a new V5c will follow upon successful transfer of ownership.
These extremely well built 911s from the late ‘90s have a strong enthusiast following and the later Varioram examples are most desirable becoming increasingly tricky to source in fine order. Is there a more stylish way to arrive at your local classic car gathering than ‘hood down’ in this outrageously attractive and well specified 993?
