Overview

Development of the 993 generation Porsche 911 Turbo, launched in 1996, was conceived under the guidance of Porsche's engineering team led by Horst Marchart, with design input from Tony Hatter. This model was the first 911 Turbo to feature all-wheel drive, a system derived from the legendary Porsche 959, enhancing its handling and stability. The development focused on improving aerodynamics, resulting in a sleeker body with an integrated rear wing and a wider stance to accommodate the new drivetrain.

For model year 1996, the 993 Turbo was powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter flat-six engine, producing 408 horsepower and 398 lb-ft of torque. This powerplant was a significant advancement over its predecessors, featuring air-cooled technology and a robust engine management system. The car's performance was further enhanced by a six-speed manual transmission, larger brakes, and an advanced suspension setup. The 993 Turbo could accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.4 seconds, with a top speed of 180 mph, making it one of the fastest cars of its time. The combination of engineering excellence and distinctive design solidified the 993 Turbo's place as a beloved icon among Porsche enthusiasts.

The 1996 Porsche 911 Turbo offered here is finished in silver over a gray leather interior and shows just over 18k miles on the odometer. This example has been exceptionally well kept and presents in excellent condition, representing an ideal specimen of the last-generation air-cooled 911. A sleek rear wing, red-painted brake calipers, and integrated fog lamps add to its curb appeal. Power adjustable seats, a classic 6-pod instrument cluster, and a Porsche cassette stereo cement its time-capsule status. With 993 values steadily rising and the peak nowhere in sight, this 911 Turbo is one of the best investments available in the future-classic market. This collector-grade coupe checks all the boxes with timeless style, excellent condition, and low mileage. It is now offered with a clean Carfax report, a third-party inspection report, a collection of service records, a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, and a clean title.
