In 1994, Porsche announced the 993. Produced for only a few years, the 993 proved to be the last of the air-cooled Porsches with increased performance, improved handling, and greater luxury than ever before. The first 911 with a multi-link rear suspension, the 993 was available in coupe, cabriolet, and Targa (now with a power-retracting glass panel rather than the previous removable top insert) and with a choice of rear or all wheel drive. A new six-speed manual or optional Tiptronic automatic transmission further allowed buyers to choose the best car for their needs.

Also for the first time, Porsche offered a factory "power kit" for the Carrera models. Dubbed the "X51 Power Kit" (much as the Turbo with its "X50 Power Kit"), the package included upgraded cams, rocker arms, and exhaust components at a cost of over $11, 000. With output increasing from 282hp to approximately 320hp, examples so equipped offered buyers performance that neatly split the difference between a period Turbo and the standard Carrera.

The marvelous 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 Cabriolet featured here is finished in classic Guards Red over an impeccably kept Black supple leather interior with a matching Black power-folding convertible top. This incredible motorcar was just released from a respected Northern California collection where it was meticulously maintained and recently serviced. Accompanying this investment-grade Porsche 911 are its original owner's manuals, service records, a front protective bra, spare tire, and clean CarFAX. This exquisite Carrera 4 Cabriolet is among the finest examples we've seen in some time and is equipped with many desirable options in addition to the aforementioned 'X51 power package'. Due to its condition, exceptional options list, and low miles, I personally believe the investment potential of this air-cooled Porsche will grow beyond your imagination. We proudly offer this remarkable 993-generation 911 Carrera 4 to the most demanding collector, investor, or enthusiast who desires to own one of the very best!
