The version most sought after by 911 enthusiasts => 2-wheel drive with a 6-speed manual gearbox
Engine type M96. 04 originally equipped with a reinforced double-row IMS bearing (feel free to ask if you want more information on this point as I did a lot of research before buying this car).
Maintenance almost exclusively carried out at Porsche Centres since the car was first registered (all original documents will be provided with the car including up-to-date and stamped service book + invoices since 2012, user manuals, 2 keys, the card with the radio code).
Consumables in very good condition, no oil or coolant leaks or consumption.

I have owned it since May 2021 and the seller I bought it from kept it for about 7 years.
Sold new in Germany, the car was sold in Italy in the early 2000s and has been in France since 2011.
Beautiful configuration with among others the following options (original label under the front bonnet):
- Full black => Bodywork paint / leather interior + headlining / brake calipers in black
- PSM => Porsche Stability Management
- 3-spoke sport steering wheel with black/ silver Porsche logo
- Raised and sliding sunroof
- Extended leather (volante + dashboard and door panels in black leather)
- 18-inch 993 Turbo-style wheels
- Electric and heated front seats
- Black alcantara headlining
- Rear wiper (yes, it was an option although air conditioning was standard!)
MOT valid through March 2025.
Although in overall good condition and very well maintained, the car is 25 years old and not new.
The leather on the steering wheel, gear lever knob, and driver-side seat edge is worn (no holes or tears). The paint on a few brake calipers is slightly chipped.
The sale also includes the following additional accessories:
- 2 stainless steel rear silencers Inoxline Performance (used in very good condition having covered around 20, 000 km / French-made, new price €1, 090) + a new complete installation kit of screws and fittings (worth €100)
- a Porsche cover for a 911 996 in good condition
