Hexagon Classics are delighted to offer this low mileage example of the legendary 993 series Cabriolet. This is the desirable all-wheel drive model with the more powerful Varioram engine and a manual gearbox. With its classic colour combination, and immaculate service history file, this is a car not to be missed.
The air-cooled Porsche 993 Carrera was arguably Porsche’s finest ever incarnation of the 911 series, with its wonderful 4-wheel drive surefootedness. You will not feel any difference behind the wheel of this Carrera 4 compared to the rear-wheel drive 911 Carrera. In all situations and speeds its agility and handling give you the confidence inspired by perfection. Its discontinuation marked the end of air-cooled Porsches, with the 993 being not just the last air-cooled 911, but also the last of the hand-built 911 series. The Carrera 4 can be recognized with its clear indicator covers at the front and red ones at the rear. The brake calipers are titanium colour, as are the logo on the engine cover and the gear lever inlay.
In 1995 Porsche switched production over to the Varioram-equipped M64/ 21(22) engine. Varioram adjusts the length of the air intake ducts in line with the engine revs and the speed of the car. The power output was increased to 285 HP and produced 340 Nm of torque at 5, 250 rpm. You will frequently find yourself driving one or two gears higher than in other cars, thanks to the engine’s wide power band. 0 - 62 mph acceleration is achieved in just 5. 3 seconds.
Supplied new by AFN Porsche in May 1996, this 993 Carrera 4 Cabriolet has enjoyed 22 Porsche main dealer services, all documented in the original owner’s books and Porsche Classic service record book. It has also recently had new roof gears, cable and tensioners fitted. This car simply deserves inspection and is now ready for its new owner to enjoy. It will also be supplied with a 12-month comprehensive warranty. Available to view now at our London showrooms.
