About this car
The 1996 Porsche 911 Turbo represents the final evolution of the air-cooled 911 Turbo. Finished in Black over a Marble Gray leather interior, this low-mileage example shows just 19,628 miles and pairs the twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter flat-six with a 6-speed manual transmission and all-wheel drive. The 408-horsepower engine delivers the signature urgency and sound of the last air-cooled Turbo while the advanced AWD system provides confident traction in varied conditions.
Inside the 2D Coupe cabin, Porsche Crest embossed headrests, a leather-covered handbrake, leather sun visors, and stainless steel door entry guards with model logo accent the driver-focused layout. Factory features include cruise control, an Alpine CDR 7807 CD radio, power moonroof, power windows, power door mirrors, air conditioning with automatic temperature control, and remote keyless entry. Additional equipment comprises alloy wheels, front fog lights, heated door mirrors, a leather steering wheel, split folding rear seat, rear window defroster, security system, and variably intermittent wipers.
Four-wheel disc brakes with ABS, front and rear anti-roll bars, power steering, illuminated entry, driver and passenger vanity mirrors, tachometer, and a rear spoiler complete the specification. As the final air-cooled Turbo before the transition to water-cooled engines, this exceptionally preserved 1996 Porsche 911 Turbo offers collectors and enthusiasts a rare opportunity to experience one of Stuttgart’s most celebrated performance cars.

The Porsche 911 Carrera G-Series, produced between 1974 and 1989, represents a significant evolution of the iconic 911 lineup. Over its 15-year production run, approximately 196,000 units were manufactured across various trims, including the Carrera, making it one of the longest-running generations of the 911. The G-Series introduced key updates like impact bumpers to meet U.S. safety regulations and galvanized steel bodies for improved corrosion resistance, enhancing longevity—a critical factor for collectors.
Engine options varied, with the Carrera models typically featuring air-cooled flat-six engines ranging from 2.7 to 3.2 liters, producing between 175 and 231 horsepower depending on the year and market. Performance highlights include the 1984-1989 Carrera 3.2, which achieved 0-60 mph in around 5.6 seconds. Notable for collectors are rare variants like the 911 Turbo (930) and special editions such as the 1988 Commemorative Edition, built to celebrate 250,000 911s produced. Values have risen steadily, with well-maintained examples often fetching over $50,000, and rare models exceeding $100,000 at auctions. The G-Series’ blend of classic design, durability, and historical importance as a transitional model makes it highly sought after in the exotic car market.
