The Porsche 993 Carrera stands as a pivotal chapter in the storied history of the 911, marking the final iteration of the air-cooled era. Introduced in late 1993, it represented a significant evolution from its 964 predecessor, boasting a completely redesigned multi-link rear suspension that transformed handling dynamics, a smoother, more integrated aesthetic, and the potent 3.6-liter M64 flat-six engine. Enthusiasts widely regard the 993 as a high-water mark for the classic 911 formula, blending modern performance with the visceral, engaging character of its air-cooled lineage before the transition to water-cooling with the 996. Its production run was relatively short, lasting until 1998, ensuring its place as a highly sought-after collectible. This 1996 Porsche 993 Carrera 2 presents a truly exceptional opportunity, finished in the extraordinarily rare non-metallic shade of Turquoise Blue. This vibrant hue, available for only a select few years and seldom specified by original owners, makes this a standout example. Originally delivered through Mizwa Japan, this 993 spent the majority of its life in the meticulous Japanese market before being imported to the US a few years ago. Powering this Carrera is the legendary 3.6-liter M64 flat-six, producing 282 hp, paired with the desirable ROW/Japanese-market G50/21 6-speed manual transmission, offering an authentic and engaging driving experience. With a mere 0 miles on the odometer, this car represents an almost unprecedented find, accompanied by its original books, manuals, and Porsche emergency tools, all ready for its next custodian with a clean U.S. title. This is a rare chance to acquire a virtually new air-cooled icon in a truly unique specification.
