VIN: WP0AC2998TS375863 Documented 18,457 original miles! 10+ years with the same recent owner, serviced regularly Primarily a West Coast car Porsche Certificate of Authenticity 3.6L twin-turbo flat six engine, 408HP and 398lb-ft torque 6-speed manual transmission Polar Silver Metallic over Classic Grey leather interior Includes books, tools, spare wheel/tire The 993 Turbo, introduced in mid-1995 as a 1996, continued to hold the torch of the most powerful 911 variant while continuing to improve the breed as a whole. Among the new features on the 993 Turbo was an electronically controlled viscous coupling all-wheel drive system-something Porsche had not offered on a turbocharged model since the 959 and a system that greatly improved the performance of the Turbo. Under the engine lid-now topped with a sculpted spoiler tail with downturned edges-resided the 3.6 liter flat six fed by twin KKK K16 turbos, each featuring integrated waste gates and two air-to-air intercoolers. Combined with bigger brakes, wider tires, wide body fender arches, and specially designed Technologie-Rad cast alloy wheels, coined Turbo Twist wheels with hollow spokes, the 993 Turbo was one of the fastest cars on the planet. With all four wheels tearing into the pavement and 408 horsepower on tap, 0-60 mph came in an impressive (even by todays standards) 3.7 seconds, 100mph ticked by in 5.7 seconds, and the forward progression continued until the speedometer had crossed 180mph. Beyond just going fast in a straight line though, the car could pull up to 1.00g on the skid pad and haul to a stop from 60mph in just 111 feet. In reviewing the 993 Turbo in June of 1995, Motor Trend magazine proclaimed, To beat this Stuttgart screamer into submission requires a force no less wieldy than the million-dollar 627-horsepower V-12 McLaren F1. This 1996 Porsche 911 Turbo was produced on December 9th, 1995 according to Porsches Certificate of Authenticity. Specified in Polar Silver Metallic paint with a Classic Grey leather interior, the car was optioned with Supple leather seats, aluminum instrument dials, self dimming mirrors and rain sensor, 6-disc remote CD changer, 8 CD storage on console, and 4 center caps with the Porsche crest. MSRP was $111,394 in 1996. The Turbo was first purchased in Idaho in 1996, where by June of 1997 it arrived in Oregon and accumulated just over 4,034 miles. The stack of maintenance records and clean Carfax attests to its condition. From June of 1997 to June 2005 the car was located in Oregon, from July 2005 until early 2012 in California when Canepa first acquired the car. In early 2012 this Turbo was sold to who is now a longtime friend of Bruce Canepa, located in Washington state. Sold with 15,423 miles, the car was still in pristine condition and was a perfect example of what a 911 Turbo could be. The owner kept the car well maintained and housed in his auto collection for 12 years, enjoying it thoroughly while driving it sparingly as a part of the rest of his collection of vehicles. After enjoying the time with the car, the 911 Turbo returned to Canepa after more than a decade with only 18,457 miles on the odometer, barely over 3,000 miles in 12 years. The condition of the Turbo is exactly how it left, with its factory Polar Silver Metallic paint in excellent condition, the interior pristine, and mechanically sound. Included are the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, owners manuals and books, compressor, jack, and spare wheel/tire. After giving the Turbo the Canepa Difference, ensuring that all mechanical systems are gone through and fully detailed to concours levels, ensuring the next owner can enjoy the car as if they just picked it up from a Porsche showroom floor.
