SUMMARY

First generation 996.1 C4 all-wheel drive, manual gearbox Cabriolet in Arctic Silver from long term ownership.

 

 

DESCRIPTION

  • The Porsche 996 was first introduced in 1997 and was the first water-cooled 911. This pre-facelift 996 is the lightest of all water-cooled 911 variants including the 996 GT3 which weighs 35kg more
  • Powered by a naturally-aspirated 3.4-litre flat-six, delivering around 300bhp and 258lb/ft of torque to all four wheels through a 6-speed manual transmission
  • First registered in 1999, this Carrera 4 has been with its current owner since 2019
  • Finished in Arctic Silver with a matching hardtop, black soft top and sits on 18" 'Turbo Twist' alloy wheels
  • Classic 996 interior in black leather featuring 'Sport' seats with Porsche-embossed headrests and aluminium-look accents on the gear knob and handbrake
  • The IMS bearing is understood to have been replaced by the previous keeper although unfortunately there is no invoice for this
  • This 996-era Carrera 4 Cabriolet is a swift and stylish everyday sports car, combining a surefooted all-wheel drive chassis with the open-air thrills of a convertible roof
