Porsche (911) 993 Carrera 4S

The Black Unicorn.

The 911/993 Carrera 4S is one of those versions of the 911 that should never have existed. For the 1995 model year, Porsche wanted to close a large gap in the model range between the normal 993 with a naturally aspirated engine and the 993 Turbo. The idea taken up here had, as so often, already been successfully adapted in previous model series of the 911 – a factory turbo look was created. Visually a cross between a Carrera and a Turbo, the "4S" is for many the most beautiful of the 993 series. The wide body including the front bumper and side skirts, as well as the chassis and brakes are derived from the 993 Turbo – but the massive rear spoiler was omitted. This results in an exciting combination of sportiness and elegance. In the final three years of the air-cooled era, a total of only 6,948 units were produced.

The vehicle in detail

This Porsche 911/993 Carrera 4S Coupe is unique in its key data and stands out from the crowd: Swiss vehicle from a third owner, delivered on June 11th, 1997 at the Porsche Center AMAG in Jona (CH) and with a mileage of just 47,900 km. Since delivery, the car has been owned by three owners who have looked after it meticulously and leaves the impression of being in a one-year-old condition, rust-free and almost wear-free.

The selected special and individual equipment makes this example unique in every respect. On special request, the first owner ordered the interior in "marble gray". The extended full-leather interior in combination with the gray carpet harmonizes perfectly with the black metallic exterior color.

All documents with all changes of ownership and original documents have been present since delivery, as have the original service booklet, the on-board folder with all operating instructions and the associated key and tool set. The emissions document from Switzerland confirms the mileage every year. With the exception of one entry, this vehicle has only been serviced by Porsche since delivery. Most recently, a major service was carried out at the Porsche Center Limburg-Dietz.

In addition to the already comprehensive standard equipment, which includes air conditioning, an on-board computer and fully electric seat adjustment, the list of special equipment in this vehicle is particularly striking: The X-options include dials made of aluminum. Like the leather-covered interior details, which include the steering wheel, door panels and dashboard, the metal door sills with embossed model name also underline the exclusive configuration. The Litronic headlights turn night into day and the third brake light not only provides more safety, but is an attractive finishing touch to the silhouette. The seat heating for the driver and front passenger is a comfortable extra, especially in cold temperatures. The electric sunroof provides fresh air and sunlight. The original Porsche CDR 21 radio and the Bose digital sound package still provide on-board entertainment – all ex works.

The color combination and condition of the black metallic paintwork are particularly striking, as they reflect a different color spectrum from carbon to dark brown depending on the light. The measured paint values are completely at the original paint level and suggest that no repainting has taken place. This irretrievable circumstance is reserved for only the fewest examples and meets collector's superlatives.

The condition of the interior and the original Turbolook rims underline the impression that this is a reference vehicle in a largely flawless condition. It is particularly noticeable that the previous owners evidently did not drive the vehicle in wet conditions. It is thanks to this meticulous care and storage that typical weak points and signs of corrosion are not visible on this vehicle and that most of the factory underbody protection is still present.

The 993 model is currently the most sought-after of the air-cooled 911 series, especially in the turbo-wide all-wheel drive variant. Sophisticated technology suitable for everyday use, a captivating appearance with superior performance make the latest series, to which the special model 993 Carrera 4S belongs, particularly desirable. After the Turbo model, this is the most exclusive version of a 993.

Conclusion: This Porsche 993 Carrera 4S, from a Swiss first delivery and third hand, impresses with only 47,900 km and is one of the best reference examples that we know of, especially due to its fascinating state of preservation with no visible signs of wear. In the color black metallic and the full leather interior in the exclusive color "marble gray", this vehicle, which is completely in its original condition, is already a sought-after and valuable classic and, especially in this condition, irreplaceable. This brings just as much joy to the enthusiast who is looking for driving pleasure as it does to the collector who values the highest standards and a worthwhile investment.

You will receive this tested vehicle from us with a 12-month warranty, as well as a current general inspection and, if desired, an insurance report and international transport.
