THE MOTORCAR OFFERED
This stunning widebody 993 comes from the final year of production of air-cooled Porsches. One of fewer than 1,300 993 Carrera's completed in that final year—alongside the new 996s in fact—the car was finished in November of 1997 as a model year 1998 and sold new by Negherbon Porsche in Oakland, California. Finished in Speed Yellow—a $2,955 option—over a Classic Grey partial leather interior, besides the optional color the car was delivered with optional matching Classic Grey floormats.
Today the car shows virtually as new and with around 53,734 miles on the odometer at the time of photographing. When inspected by a Bonhams specialist, the car was found to read evenly across all surfaces when checked with a paint meter. Even the nose, often chipped from rocks, shows beautifully having been covered by a bra for most of its life (the bra is of course included with the sale). Complete with its original books, manuals, tools, jack, tire inflation pump; plus a copy of the original window sticker and a massive heap of receipts documenting its service history virtually since new, this stunning final-year 993 C4S is surely one of the nicest examples out there.
This all-wheel drive, Carrera has an impressive folder full of service receipts, many of which were performed by authorized Porsche dealerships. The service is completely up to date due to a recent 60k service performed by marque experts Redline Service in Los Angeles, the car received all new fluids, rotors, caps and plug wires to the tune of over $3,200. With the wide track of this Turbo bodied Carrera, along with power being sent to all four wheels makes for a recipe of superb driving pleasure. Having its whole life spent in California, one careful owner from new, and a documented life of pampering, this Carrera 4S is well worth extra consideration.
