What is less well known is that the “Carrera 4” model offered here with all-wheel drive and the narrow body from the 1995 model year is the much rarer version with only 2,884 units and is also the more agile variant with the 272 hp engine and the still short gearbox. Compared to the wide special model “Carrera 4 S”, the “Carrera 4” weighs 30 kilograms less and therefore achieves, among other things, more efficient performance. For connoisseurs and sporty drivers, this combination is an interesting alternative with a rarity value. The all-wheel drive concept has been further developed since the previous model 964 based on the legendary 959 and manages to bring power and performance safely to the road. The same all-wheel drive technology is also used in the turbo model and in the “Carrera 4S”.
This Porsche 911/993 Carrera 4 Coupe in the color combination polar silver metallic with flamenco red interior was first registered as a factory car in Stuttgart on January 11, 1995. The first owner, a tax advisor from Bolzano, South Tyrol, took over the vehicle on August 6th, 1996 and owned the vehicle until 2002. The vehicle has been in the possession of the last owner for 22 years, a journalist and editor-in-chief also from Bolzano, who now has to give up his car due to illness.
The car is still largely in its first coat of paint and has no visible damage or significant wear. The two previous owners were knowledgeable Porsche drivers and treated the car with care and only drove it in summer and when the weather was good. After the first maintenance in 1996 at Porsche Stuttgart, vehicle maintenance was carried out exclusively at the Porsche Center in Bolzano until 2020. Afterwards, two more maintenance tasks were carried out at the Porsche specialist elfertec GmbH, also in Bolzano. The original logbook with checkbook and maintenance invoices, as well as the TÜV reports are still available. The documented history contributes to the very comprehensive overall package.
The units and technical equipment are in a perfectly maintained condition.
The exterior color polar silver metallic is interesting, with its slight blue shimmer showing off to varying degrees depending on the light. Due to the consistent care, the car is in an exceptionally good condition for its mileage. The measured paint thicknesses are largely at factory level; only some areas were repainted on behalf of the last owner. The entire front, including the bumper, still has the factory paintwork. For lovers of untouched originals, this vehicle meets the highest standards.
The interior is very well maintained and in original condition with almost no signs of wear. The special equipment includes, among other things, a sunroof, heated seats for the driver and front passenger, and air conditioning.
The documentation from the TÜV receipts to the last service invoice, as well as the logbook with all documents including a checkbook and the complete set of keys are available.
Conclusion: A 993 Carrera 4 with many years of verifiable previous ownership is rare in this very good condition. This car shows hardly any visual or technical signs of wear for its mileage and can therefore be described as an ideally preserved vehicle for trips and pass tours. The continuous history and the current maintenance from 09/2023 underline the special value of this example and will bring a lot of joy to its next owner.
This model is a real alternative to the special model 993 Carrera 4S – and not just in terms of price. So if you have the desire to own a Porsche with all-wheel drive and the agile engine and short gearbox, you have the opportunity to purchase this last air-cooled model in a perfect condition of maintenance and preservation with a history in the color polar silver metallic.
