Overview

The 993 generation Porsche 911 Targa, produced from 1995 to 1998, represented a significant evolution in both design and technology for the iconic 911 line. Unlike earlier Targas with a removable roof panel, the 993 Targa introduced a retractable glass roof system, offering the open-air experience while maintaining the sleek coupe-like silhouette. Power came from a 3.6-liter air-cooled flat-six engine, producing up to 282 horsepower in its later variants, mated to either a six-speed manual or a Tiptronic automatic transmission. The 993 generation was also the last of the air-cooled 911s, marking the end of an era with enhanced performance, improved suspension, and more refined handling, making it one of the most revered models in the Porsche lineup.
 
This 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa is finished in an elegant black exterior over a matching black leather interior, giving it a timeless, classic appeal. Equipped with a desirable 6-speed manual transmission, this 993 generation Targa offers a thrilling and engaging driving experience. With just under 64,000 miles, this well-maintained example has been updated with a replacement Porsche stereo that includes Bluetooth connectivity, allowing for modern convenience while retaining the original aesthetic. The retractable glass roof adds to its versatility, providing an open-air experience without compromising the coupe’s sleek lines. This 911 presents in excellent condition and is ready to be enjoyed by its next enthusiast owner. iT is now offered with a third-party inspection report, a clean Carfax report, and a clean title.
