We are pleased to offer this 2002 Porsche 996 Turbo Coupe finished in Slate Grey Metallic over a black full leather interior. Showcasing a race-derived 3.6L twin-turbocharged Mezger engine paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, this 2002 example also came optioned with the Carbon Interior Package, supple leather seats, Exclusive aluminum trim, and the rare Turbo Aerokit. It has also been upgraded with a set of 19” RUF wheels as well as a complete Tubi exhaust system. This Turbo was originally sold in New Jersey before spending time in Texas and eventually moving to the West Coast in 2005. Currently showing just over 34k miles on the odometer, this nicely appointed 996 Turbo is being offered for auction by its seller out of California.
This 996 comes finished in Slate Grey Metallic and features the Exclusive Turbo Aerokit consisting of a front spoiler, flared rocker panels, and a larger rear wing. The front spoiler has been painted and the sunroof panel was previously removed and refinished to address a scratch. Detailed images are provided in the photo gallery along with paint meter readings and a clean CARFAX report. This Turbo rides on upgraded 19” RUF wheels dressed in Michelin Pilot Sport tires dated from 2008-2010. The original 18” Turbo wheels have been recently refinished and are said to accompany the sale as well.
Inside, this Turbo has been appointed with a premium black full leather interior featuring the Carbon Interior Package, supple leather seats, aluminum instrument dials, and a shifter and brake handle in carbon/aluminum. Other options include heated front seats with adjustable lumbar support, a 3-spoke steering wheel, and a 6-disc remote CD changer. The seller confirms all gauges and accessories remain fully functional.
Derived from the legendary GT1 Le Mans race car, the 3.6L twin-turbocharged Mezger flat-six engine in this 996 is capable of generating up to 415 HP and 415 lb.-ft of torque, which is sent to all four wheels through a 6-speed manual transmission. An upgraded Italian-made Tubi exhaust system has been installed which offers increased sound and power output. The original exhaust components are said to accompany the sale as well. An invoice is provided in the photo gallery showing an oil and filter change to have been completed on 7/8/2021. All other available service history is provided on CARFAX and the seller reports no outstanding maintenance items at this time.
This sale will include the original wheels and exhaust components, a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, a Porsche battery charger, and a clean title.

@jtouzet it came to me that way, 10mm front and 15mm back
@jtouzet ...with the Ruf wheels?
Are you running wheel spacers?
@vengerider @Sberger6 Sunroof was removed and repainted, couldn't avoid scratch, overall good paint match but slate is a very difficuld color, 7 shades of it according to porsche. Hood has 3-4 light color chips, could be corrected with light touch up. The car overall is no paint work and shown on paint meter.
Noticing that there may be some paintwork on the roof? Is that correct? Overall, are the little specks just dust or actual chips?
Some additional undercarriage photos and a print out of the DME data just posted @Pcarmarket
Bid in the amount of $50,000
@viavaquero @viavaquero, the stete of CATS are normal., please word your comments properly. this specific rule only Applies to CA and thats why ther are CA specific CATs, they are 49 state legal, but if a buyer has any issue with their home state they already know that they can easily swap with the supplied Factory ones, so even tho I apprecitate all your concerns with this one subject we are moving on.
So how many states besides CA will your Turbo no comply with in its current state of the Cats?
Bid in the amount of $46,750
@viavaquero sorry forgot to respond to the other thing you mentioned, as far as the monitors, they are all set and ready
Bid in the amount of $46,500
@viavaquero , you make a good point but the reason why a CA smog is not completed yet is that the Cat thats on the car now is not a CA Carb Compliant Cat, the Exhaust and headeers are, so if a CA buyer wins the auction We'll install the Factory Cats and smog prior to delivery all cost included. If an out of state buyer gets the car we send the car will all aftermarket system and still include the factory system. All the extras including Exhaust system, wheels and accesorries included in this Auction can be seen in hte gallery.
Bid in the amount of $45,996
I suggest that you get your Turbo CA Smog Tested and post the official results here, to ease potential buyers concerns.
I'm interested to know as a CA resident if your Turbo would pass CA Smog testing? Also is everything a "Green Lighted" on a OBD device. Please check with a smog testing facility if your Turbo in its current state would pass CA smog testing Station. Thanks
@8pxCkr yes the rotors and calipers are the stock , just have the RUF decals added to them
Are the rotors and calipers original/stock? Asking because of the Ruf label on the calipers. Thanks
Bid in the amount of $43,000

This Tubi system is a $4800 system without install so not the cheap stuff, it also sounds like a well refined system.
the dash top trim was redone in Matte finish Suede mainly because the glossy carbon tirm was reflecting into the windshield and it was warped bit due to sun even tho this car has spent most of its life in a garage. If the Auction is won by a CA buyer we would have to look into the Exhuast systme being compliant with CA CArb, we do have all the original pieces As Shown in the photo Gallery
Beautifully spec car, the Aerokit is gorgeous, love the modifications with the Tobi exhaust and RUF wheels. How's the condition on that carbon trim near the bottom of the windshield, can't see a clear picture of it, seems like it's suede? And does the Tobi exhaust pass SMOG?
