This 996 Carrera was delivered to the first owner by the Porsche Center in Modena on May 23, 2003. The vehicle remained in the ownership of the first owner until 2016. On May 4, 2016, the car changed hands and came to southern Germany, where it has been continuously registered to this day.
The original title, the original Porsche order, and the invoice list the only two owners to date. According to our expertise, the vehicle is in completely delivered condition and, based on our measurements, still has its original paint finish.
The very low mileage of just 17,800 kilometers is reflected both visually and technically. The car is in a like-new condition, showing no traces of water or salt. The underbody is free of wear and still has almost all of the factory underbody protection.
The factory-installed special equipment includes 18-inch wheels, bi-xenon headlights, Porsche Stability Management (PSM), a Harmann sound package, air conditioning, a sunroof, and full leather upholstery in black raffia. Furthermore, this car was customized with several X-options from the special requests department: The door sill guards were made of stainless steel with lettering, the instrument dial was painted in aluminum, and the 3-spoke sports steering wheel was selected for leather.
The car has been fully serviced according to the Porsche service book, has all delivery documents since the order, as well as the complete owner's manual including the logbook and the complete set of keys.
Stored in an air-conditioned warehouse, this example is, in our opinion, in an irreplaceable and immaculate, even mint, condition and collector's item.
Conclusion: For us, the 996 series is the entry-level 911 at relatively affordable prices, one that still has its development as a classic ahead of it. For a long time, the shape was spurned by self-proclaimed purists. In our view, this is completely unjustified, as the design language is already iconic. This vehicle in the classic color combination of silver metallic / black is a rare opportunity for any Porsche enthusiast to acquire a future classic in this unique condition due to its second-hand history and extremely low mileage of around 17,800 km.
Vehicle history:
The car was first registered and delivered to its first owner at the Porsche Center Modena on May 21, 2003. A collector from southern Germany bought the 996 in 2016. He still owns the car today, meaning the vehicle has had two previous owners.
The old Italian and current German vehicle registration documents, as well as the original service booklet with complete on-board folder and owner's manual, are present. The vehicle's original documents have been available since the order was placed. This means that the mileage has been regularly documented and confirmed.
