About this car
The 1998 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 Cabriolet pairs the iconic air-cooled 3.6L H6 engine with a six-speed manual transmission and all-wheel drive, delivering balanced performance in a convertible body style. Finished in Black, this low-mileage example has covered just 41,439 miles while retaining the distinctive proportions and driving character of the final air-cooled 993 generation.
With a fuel-efficient rating of 16 city and 23 highway mpg on premium unleaded, the Carrera 4 Cabriolet combines open-air motoring with the sure-footed traction of its 4WD system. The 3.6-liter flat-six produces smooth, responsive power through its naturally aspirated design, complemented by the engaging precision of the manual gearbox.

The Porsche 911 (992) is the eighth generation of the iconic 911 sports car, introduced in 2019 and still in production as of 2023. Manufactured in Stuttgart, Germany, Porsche has produced over 100,000 units across various trims, though exact figures for specific models remain undisclosed by the company. The 992 is available in multiple variants, including the Carrera, Turbo, and GT3, with engines ranging from a 3.0-liter twin-turbo flat-six in base models (379 hp) to a 4.0-liter naturally aspirated flat-six in the GT3 (502 hp). Performance highlights include a 0-60 mph time of 2.6 seconds for the Turbo S and a top speed of up to 205 mph.
For exotic car collectors, the 992 holds appeal due to limited-run editions like the 911 Dakar, with only 2,500 units produced, and the GT3 RS, celebrated for its track-focused engineering. Historical significance lies in its evolution of the 911’s rear-engine design, maintaining a legacy since 1963. Value trends show strong appreciation for rare variants, with low-mileage Turbo S and GT3 models often commanding premiums above MSRP in the secondary market, reflecting high demand among enthusiasts and investors.
