The Appeal
The Porsche 996.2 Carrera 4S occupies something of a sweet spot in the modern classic 911 lineage, combining the wider body and enhanced performance of the Turbo model with the more reliable 3.6L M96/03 engine of the second-generation 996. This particular example stands out for its unique provenance and specification, being a Japanese market car with the highly desirable and rare Zender aerodynamic package installed by an official Porsche dealership in Japan.
Imported from Japan's salt-free roads in June 2023, this 2004 Carrera 4S has covered just 78,906 km (approximately 48,150 miles) and comes with comprehensive documentation, including the original service book, Japanese export certificate, and official Porsche factory specification sheet.
Finished in elegant Basalt Black Metallic with Tan leather interior, this 996.2 features the Tiptronic S transmission paired with all-wheel drive, making it both a capable performer and potentially a comfortable daily driver. Having recently received a full service by Porsche specialists OSA Motors in Poland, this C4S is reportedly ready for immediate enjoyment.
