Now available for auction is this 1997 Porsche 993 Carrera Coupe finished in Arctic Silver Metallic over Blue leather.  This 6-speed 1997 example has been upgraded with genuine hollow-spoke Turbo Twist wheels, a Fabspeed X-pipe, a custom sound system, and other tasteful features.  Since purchasing the car from Parkhaus Miami in 2018, the owner has reportedly carried out extensive maintenance as well as a full ceramic coating.  With approximately 70k miles currently showing on the odometer, this well-presented 993 Coupe now is being offered for auction by its owner out of Florida.

The Arctic Silver Metallic paint is reported by the seller to be in good original condition with some normal road-going wear (detailed images are provided in the photo gallery).  A paint correction and ceramic coating were carried out under the current ownership along with the replacements of the clear stone guards, OEM front and rear windshields, taillights, and rubber body seals.  Clear side marker lenses were also installed along with genuine 18” hollow-spoke Turbo Twist wheels dressed in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires.  An additional set of brand-new Michelin tires are also said to be included.

Inside, the Blue leather interior has been kept in fantastic condition with only minor wear indicated on the seats.  The air conditioning system was completely overhauled under the current ownership and the sound system was upgraded with a new Continental radio, Alpine amplifier, and Morel speakers.  Other modifications include a carbon fiber shift knob, Carbone floor mats, and a Rennline phone mount.  All gauges and accessories are said to be fully functional.

As the final iteration of the air-cooled 911, this 993 Carrera is equipped with a 3.6 L flat-six Varioram engine rated at 282 HP stock.  The rear wheels are driven through a 6-speed manual transmission.  The seller has provided the following complete list of upgrades, modifications, and maintenance items done under their ownership:

  • Fabspeed X-Pipe
  • Fabspeed ECU Tune Upgrade

    @MSQ Thank you. The car is amazing and well sorted.

  • RLC993 (seller) 3 years, 1 monthago

    @9972gts The ceramic coating is under the stickers. I put them on to give the car a little livery fun. They will peel off easily.

  • 9972gts (registered bidder) 3 years, 1 monthago

    Do you know the background of the HEUER stickers on the fenders? Is the ceramic coating applied above or below those?

    @RLC993 Thanks much for the answer and thoughtful reply. The car looks like it is in great condition.

  • RLC993 (seller) 3 years, 1 monthago

    @RLC993 additionally I would not be able to complete the task before the end of auction.

  • RLC993 (seller) 3 years, 1 monthago

    @MSQ I spoke to Parkhaus1 today and they said it will take 6hrs the compete the job plus the expense. You can reach out to Anthony directly for info on the car as well as request for PPI. I’m happy to do after the sale as a condition if needed but now it is cost prohibitive. Car is running fine with no visible leak issues.

  • MSQ (registered bidder) 3 years, 1 monthago

    @RLC993 any luck with either leak down or compressions numbers? Thx

  • RLC993 (seller) 3 years, 2 monthsago

    @onemotime use contact seller button to exchange phone numbers so we can coordinate.

  • amissair (registered bidder) 3 years, 2 monthsago

    Great 993 and seller. I know this car personally. It’s always received good care, regular maintenance, and garage kept. A solid worry-free 993 with interesting Magnus Walker history (used to be his Miami daily when visiting Parkhaus1).

  • onemotime (registered bidder) 3 years, 2 monthsago

    @RLC993 tomorrow is good, but before rush hour would be best.

  • RLC993 (seller) 3 years, 2 monthsago

    @zffnhsn Thank you for the comments. It's been a great joy owning and experiencing this car. From the little things to learn of the adds/mechanics to the memories and relationships created.

  • zffnhsn 3 years, 2 monthsago

    This is a wonderful car, well done. I love the details and attention to maintenance. Good luck to the seller, it's a beauty.

  • RLC993 (seller) 3 years, 2 monthsago

    @onemotime From Pcarmarket Team:

    hi, if they use contact seller button to exchange phone numbers to view before bidding.

  • RLC993 (seller) 3 years, 2 monthsago

    @onemotime I’m in Miami Shores and could meet you anywhere around here. I’m free today after 6pm or anytime tomorrow.

  • RLC993 (seller) 3 years, 2 monthsago

    @onemotime let me check with the Pcarmarket team and get back with you.

  • onemotime (registered bidder) 3 years, 2 monthsago

    @RLC993 I tried sending my phone number and email but I get a message that "sharing contact information is strictly forbidden and will result in account suspension", how to coordinate to see the car?

  • RLC993 (seller) 3 years, 2 monthsago

    @Mitternachtsbar Thanks for the comments. Yes. I have all records of all services and upgrades in hard copy and PDF. I will send pics to upload. I will double check on the leak down test from Parkhaus as well.

  • RLC993 (seller) 3 years, 2 monthsago

    @onemotime Send me your contact info and I will reach out directly to schedule today.

  • Mitternachtsbar (registered bidder) 3 years, 2 monthsago

    Hello. A clean looking Carrera (ignoring HEUER stickers on fenders). She reads to be well travelled. Would be nice to get her back to the tri-state.
    A few questions;
    Any records or receipts of actual services performed? Didn’t see any within the 73 images. Also, specifically, has a leak down and/or compression test been performed ever? These would benefit the sale and generate additional attention from prospective buyers, myself included.

    A note regarding the tune; the last year using DME was MY95 so this would have been an ECU tune (probably re flash) for the OBDII system. Fabspeed commonly works with EVOMSit for tuning software, however I believe they do not support the 993 platform, so must be another company they used, my guess Steve Weiner of Rennsport.

  • onemotime (registered bidder) 3 years, 2 monthsago

    I am in Miami and open to day/time you are available.

  • RLC993 (seller) 3 years, 2 monthsago

    @onemotime Yes. The car is available to show in person anytime. Feel free to send me a PM to coordinate.

  • onemotime (registered bidder) 3 years, 2 monthsago

    Are you available to show the vehicle in person? thank you
