The final evolution of Porsche’s air-cooled 911, this 1995 Porsche 993 Carrera Cabriolet comes finished in Grand Prix White over Midnight Blue upholstery. It pairs a 6-speed manual transmission with its 3.6-liter flat-six and features an optional limited-slip differential, automatic braking differential, automatic speed control, and more. Acquired by its second and current owner from Continental Porsche of Fairfield, Connecticut in 1999, this example is accompanied by several service records dating back to their purchase. Recently serviced by Foreign Motorsport in Santa Monica, this 993 is now being offered for auction by its seller out of California with under 60k miles showing on the odometer.
Finished in Grand Prix White, this 993 rides on 17” Cup 2 wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport AS/3+ tires with plenty of tread reported to remain. The blue convertible soft top is said to have been replaced in 2019. Optional colored Porsche-crested wheel caps are also equipped. Other features include a speed-activated rear spoiler, a distinctive “basket handle” fixed rear spoiler with an integrated third brake light, fog lights, and dual exhaust outlets The seller has disclosed minor paint imperfections such as scratches near the door handles, light wear on the right front fender, minor road wear on the hood, and a windshield chip. The rear bumper plastic was repainted after the vehicle was backed into a wall in the driveway, and the wheels were refinished simultaneously. A professional detail is said to have been performed in February 2024, and detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a CARFAX report noting minor damage in November 2023.
Inside, this 993 sports a Midnight Blue interior with matching carpets and power-operated seats. The seller adds that an integrated radar detector has been mounted to the front license plate. The seller notes the horn will sound intermittently due to an unknown electrical fault, and the deck lid warning light occasionally stays on for a few seconds after the car is started then goes away. Minor wear is observed on the shifter, stains are present in the passenger’s side footwell, and the wiper speed knob is broken.
Power is provided by a 3.6-liter flat-six engine generating as much as 272 HP and 243 lb.-ft. of torque, sent to the rear wheels by way of a 6-speed manual transmission. Acceleration from 0-60 mph is achieved in approximately 5 seconds with a top speed of 168 mph. The seller notes the clutch has not been replaced and the fluids were changed in January 2023. A host of service documentation dating back to 1999 will accompany the sale.
This sale will include a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: “The current owner acquired the car from the original owner in 1999 through a Connecticut dealership. It has primarily been used locally and for road trips, including journeys to Colorado and Canada, all while being garage-stored. Subsequently, the car was moved to New Mexico and later to California, where it was prepared for sale.”

@Dodam7 no rust or leaks. The car does not have a cover for the soft top, unfortunately.
Any rust or leaks? Also no cover for the soft top?

@condor303 damage was a scrape on the passenger side of the rear bumper. It was backed into a rock wall in the driveway. I’ll add a before image to the gallery.
Can you share any details on the minor damage and what was repaired?

@tff I’m not aware of any damage to tabs or supports on the front bumper and I believe it would just take some adjustment to remedy the fitment. Some quick research tells me that it’s not uncommon for these pieces to be removed and reinstalled incorrectly and if you’re the DIY-type it should only take about 15-20 minutes per side to readjust can correct.
As far as mileage I will ask the PCar team to correct, thanks for the catch.
Can the seller comment on the front bumper + attachments fit? Seems like the lower rt & left parts are not aligned correctly, some gasket is poking out on the passenger side of the bumper, general gap between bumper and hood. Wondering if these issues are easily addressed or is there some damage (missing tabs, bent supports...) that is preventing a good fit?
Also, seems like there is a typo on the car mileage in the listing. Should be 59,865 and not 50,865?
