This 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera is finished in Black over Black, and benefits from some RS-style modifications, giving it a unique look. At the time of cataloging, this car shows 171,668 miles and was sold new in Connecticut. At some point in the car’s life, it was treated to some very attractive upgrades on the exterior that are meant to evoke the 993 Carrera RS - a car that was never officially imported stateside. The first thing you will notice is the wide, rear spoiler - on the RS, this was known as the “low” spoiler and is clearly inspired by the whale tail you frequently see on G-Body 911s of the 1980s. In front, an RS-style splitter was added beneath the standard bumper, and the front marker lights have been swapped out for brake cooling ducts and small front fog lights. The wheels have also been swapped out for a set of multi-piece BBS wheels that were standard equipment on the 996.1 GT3, giving the car a striking motorsport look. Finished in color-matched black with polished lips, these make the red-painted brake calipers really stand out against the otherwise all black exterior. This Porsche is optioned with a black partial leather interior on the inside. The front seats have partial power adjustment, and a JVC head unit with modern connectivity options has been added in the dashboard. The interior does show some wear on the bolsters but it is all consummate with the age and mileage of the car. Powering the 993 Carrera is a 3.6-liter M64 Flat-6 engine that produces 272 horsepower and 243 lb-ft of torque and loves to pull hard all the way to the 7,000 rpm redline. 1996 was the first year of the VarioRam system on the 993, which features variable length intake runners and is designed to optimize both low-down torque and high RPM power. The implementation of this system resulted in an increase of 14 horsepower and 10 lb-ft of torque. In this Carrera, the engine has been freshly serviced and is ready to be driven. This engine is paired with a 6-speed manual Getrag gearbox with Porsche’s famous floor-hinged pedals. The 993 Carrera is known as a fantastic driver’s car, and this example is perfect for the enthusiast who wants to enjoy lots of time behind the wheel. When you pair that with the fantastic Carrera RS updates, this is a 993 that will stand out at your local car show, and put a smile on your face every time you drive.
