Up for auction is this 1997 Porsche 993 Carrera 4S finished in ultra-rare PTS Ferrari Fly Yellow.  Making one of the most sought-after 993 models of all time, this 1997 4S highlights many upgrades including a factory Aerokit, leather Sport Seats and Bilstein suspension.  This 993 is now being offered in driver-grade condition with approximately 42k miles showing on the odometer by a seller in Tampa, FL.

This C4S was finished in a Paint To Sample Ferrari Fly Yellow from the factory.  The seller notes the exterior to be good condition overall with some corrosion present along the edges of the windshield.  Detailed images are provided in the photo gallery along with paint meter readings that indicate that some refinishing was carried out over the years. Noteworthy factory features include widened fenders, OEM Turbo wheels and a sought-after factory Aerokit which consists of a revised front fascia and a distinctive rear tail spoiler.

This Carrera is outfitted with a black leather interior showcasing upgraded Sport Seats with yellow seatbacks.  This interior is stated to be in excellent condition with all gauges, electrical components and accessories fully functional.  Factory options include a power operated sunroof, fog lamps, intermittent wipers, power windows, and an alarm system. 

This 993 carries a 3.6L flat-six air-cooled engine rated at 282 HP and 250 lb-ft of torque stock.  All four wheels are driven by way of a smooth 6-speed manual transmission making for a 0-60 time of approximately 5.2 seconds and a top speed of 168 MPH (factory est).  An oil leak has been reported on the driver’s side of the engine and the ABS warning light is currently illuminated, according to the seller.  The car is reported to start, run and drive excellent.

The sale of this 993 will include one key, original books, some service records and a clear title.  This 4S represents one of the most desirable air-cooled 911s on the road due to its configuration that is second to none.  Do not miss your chance to get behind the wheel of this incredible ‘97 Carrera 4S Aerokit.

    @porschecollector The codes tell us that the sport seats came with the car. I do not know if they were painted at the factory or not.

    What a striking build, if anyone here has ever seen a Porsche in Fly Yellow in person then they know what I mean. I saw a 993 Turbo S and a 964 Speedster in this color at 2 separate concours events here in NY. It is probably one of the best colors I have ever seen on a 90's air-cooled 911, not to mention rare rare rare!!

  • 993fan (registered bidder) 4 years, 2 monthsago

    Gorgeous car in a fantastic color! While a devout Porsche enthusiast, I know some about our Italian counter-parts. The color is simply known as F.L.Y. which is an acronym for “Ferrari Light Yellow” ... so the above description basically reads Ferrari “Ferrari Light Yellow” Yellow. Totally being picky, I know, but thought I’d share anyway. GLWS!!
