You are viewing a mint 1998 Carrera Cabriolet with 84K miles on it. Superbly maintained and owned by a Porsche enthusiast. You will not find a cleaner 993 anywhere.
This car has been adult driven and always garaged. This is the ultra desirable and rare 993 with tiptronic---very few of these were made and they rarely come up for sale. This 1998 is the last year Porsche made an air-cooled motor.
Everything is in good working order and the AC blows ice cold and was just serviced. The top in the picture is black but, it is going into the shop next week to get a brand new fresh grey top. I want to make sure this car is like new the for new owner. I also just had a complete engine service (6K) done less than 100 miles ago. I have receipts and your welcome to speak with the shop (Black Forest) in San Diego. The service included:
* Transmission Service---new fluids
* AC Service
* All new belts (3)
* Fresh oil change
* New Fuel Filter
* New Plug Wires ---The wires were 371 plus labor and we had to drop the motor for this another 1700 dollars
* New Plugs
* New Cabin Filters
* 4 Wheel Alignment (317)
* New Distributor Caps and Rotors
* New Cabriolet Control Unit---with a 2 year warranty
* New trunk shocks
* New valve cover gaskets
I just spent 6K on the motor and I have the receipts to prove it. This motor is very fresh and tight and will be worry free for another 80K miles. This car has a fresh motor and will have a brand new top!!! I spent all that money on the 911 because I thought I would own this car forever but, last week my wife drove a Cayenne and wanted it---I told her she could not have 2 Porsche's and I am now selling her 911.
The car has a multi-disc unit in the trunk with the spare tire, compressor, toolkit and jack. The rims and tires pictured in the photo do NOT come with the car. I am including the original Turbo 911 rims. If you are interested in purchasing the rims and tires separately please give me a call.
Bidder is responsible for shipping. Upon end of auction successful bidder will submit a NON-refundable 1,000 dollar deposit. 500 to be paid immediately and the remainder of the deposit to be paid within 24 hours. The remaining balance of the winning bid to be paid within 3 days.
Please call me prior to hitting buy it now as I am selling this locally and reserve the right to end the auction early. I ask to call me because I unfortunately have 2 negative feedbacks because I had a kids backpack and motorcycle tank bag that was listed on Ebay and I sold them at a garage sale the same day people bid for them on Ebay. I explained to them I sold them and they threw a fit and gave me negative feedback. Please see my feedback.

Porsche slathers Martini livery on 911, Panamera, Macan and Cayenne
Mon, 20 Oct 2014This is how we imagine the conversation went in Porsche's Stuttgart headquarters: "Martini livery. Martini livery all the things." Okay, so maybe not, but that hasn't stopped Porsche from showing off images of its entire lineup bearing the iconic racing livery.
While we aren't sure about the questionably yellow 911 and lime green Macan, the navy blue Cayenne and the white Panamera both look pretty spectacular as they lap about the streets of Sochi, Russia.
As for why the liveried sports cars and crossovers were at the site of the 2014 Winter Olympics, we aren't totally sure. Porsche's Facebook page, where the images first popped up, was really light on details. Whatever the reason, we fully support Porsche doing more with Martini livery. Take a look at the full gallery to see what we mean.
Porsche reveals new Panamera Turbo S ahead of Tokyo debut
Thu, 31 Oct 2013For many buyers in the market for a luxury sports sedan, style is as important as performance. But while the Porsche Panamera undoubtedly delivers in the latter category, it falls somewhat short in the former. Porsche went to some lengths (if not quite far enough for some tastes) to improve its four-door model's visual appeal with the facelift revealed earlier this year, but now it's time to up the performance game with the new Panamera Turbo S.
Set to be revealed at the Tokyo Motor Show in just a few weeks from now, the new top-tier Panamera benefits from several key upgrades over the existing Turbo and the pre-facelift Turbo S. For one, its 4.8-liter twin-turbo V8 now produces 570 horsepower (up from 520 in the new Turbo and 550 in the old Turbo S and the latest Cayenne Turbo S) and 553 pound-feet of torque (up from the current Turbo's 516 but the same as the previous model). Despite the power boost, however, Porsche is quoting the same 3.6-second 0-60 time for the new Panamera Turbo S as it did for the previous one - but then that hardly required improvement in the first place. Top speed, however, is up to 192 miles per Autobahn-blurring hour, two mph faster than the previous model.
Other features include carbon-ceramic brakes (hopefully with more durable bolts than sister companies Lamborghini and Bentley have been using) packed inside the wheels from the 911 Turbo and an exclusive shade of greige called Palladium. And for the first time, customers will be able to order this top-spec model in long-wheelbase Executive trim. But don't expect it to come cheap: MSRP (before delivery and options) is quoted at $180,300 for the standard wheelbase and $200,500 for the stretched model. That's two and a half times the price of a base Panamera, and makes the new Panamera Turbo S Executive both the most expensive and most powerful Porsche your can buy this side of a 918 Spyder. Haven't passed out yet? There's more to digest in the press release, so head on down below to take it all in.
Porsche 911 Cabriolet refresh may hide new engine
Wed, 22 Jan 2014If we learned nothing else from our recent frolic through Porsche's secret museum, it's that the automaker goes to incredible lengths to disguise future products during initial testing. Just as a number of cars in that Stuttgart bunker hid the true identity of developmental mules (like the Audi-V8-powered 911), such could very well be the case with these spy shots showing what, on the surface, appears to be simply a facelifted 991 911 Cabriolet.
Similar to what we saw last month on a 911 coupe, this Cabriolet has obvious styling modifications made to the front and rear fascias suggesting that the 911's still-fresh appearance is already set to get a few tweaks. The big news here is at the rear of the car. The additional vents on the lower edge of the fascia and the mocked-up vent above the engine leads our spy photographer to believe that a new engine could be tucked under the body work - likely a smaller-displacement, turbocharged flat-six focusing more on improving fuel efficiency and reducing exhaust emissions rather than performance.
We last heard rumblings of such a detuned 911 back in August, but could this be our first look at said new model? Have a look for yourself, and let us know what you think - either about this mule specifically or the idea of a "green" 911, in Comments below.
