Porsche 911 (996. 2) Carrera 4S | Engine & Gearbox Rebuild | Collector’s Condition
This is the 911, specifically the 996. 2—the second generation and facelift of the 996 series. This particular example is the highly coveted 4S, a model that surprises you not just with its technical prowess, but with its commanding presence.
The 4S is instantly recognizable by its wide body—measuring 60 mm wider at the rear—and the iconic continuous reflector strip between the taillights. Sharing its chassis and many aesthetic cues with the 911 Turbo, this car has a "muscular" and aggressive stance that the standard Carrera simply can't match.
Performance & Provenance
The 3. 6L flat-six engine delivers 320 HP, making every drive an absolute joy in what is arguably the most desirable version of the 996 generation.
History: Originally delivered in Germany, this 4S has been on Dutch plates since April 2014.
Ownership: The previous owner acquired the car in 2016 and kept it for a decade.
Maintenance: Immediately after purchase, the car underwent a comprehensive technical overhaul from front to back. This included a full engine and automatic gearbox rebuild, and yes—the infamous IMS bearing has been addressed!
Condition
To use a cliché: this car is immaculate.
It is a truly stunning and "sharp" example. No scratches, no dents—just top-tier condition throughout. Is there really nothing to criticize? No, nothing at all. Even the seat bolsters, usually prone to wear, are in perfect condition. The interior is simply flawless.
The Driving Experience
Getting into a 911 always feels like coming home, each model with its own distinct character—and that unmistakable Porsche scent. The 4S, in particular, feels "glued" to the asphalt thanks to its wide track and all-wheel-drive system. This specific car drives exceptionally well; it is clear that it has been maintained with an incredible amount of love, time, and investment.
Maintenance & Investment
Quite simply: it doesn't get any better than this.
Full Service History: Completely documented by Porsche specialists.
