This 993-generation Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet is a desirable and exciting modern classic open-top air-cooled sports car. Under the rear engine lid sits a naturally aspirated 3.6-litre ‘Varioram’ air-cooled flat-six, delivering around 213kW to the rear wheels via a four-speed Tiptronic S automatic transmission with steering wheel-mounted shift buttons. This original Australian-market example was first registered in January 1996, and has been with the seller and reportedly third owner for two years. The odometer shows 135,092 Kms from new. This 993-era 911 Carrera Cabriolet is finished in the iconic shade of Guards Red with a black convertible roof, over a black leather-trimmed interior. It rides on a set of 18-inch ‘Turbo Twist’ alloy wheels, framing gloss-black Porsche-branded brake callipers and fitted with Pirelli P Zero tyres. Equipment includes a rear aeroblade spoiler with integrated third brake light, a top-tinted windscreen, electrically adjustable front seats, headlamp washers, an electrically operated rear spoiler, heated door mirrors, cruise control, and air conditioning. This example also benefits from the fitment of a Blaupunkt Bremen DAB stereo. The car comes with the owner’s manuals with a leather wallet, and the stamped service booklet.
