About this car

The 1999 Porsche 911 Carrera is a classic example of the 996 generation, finished in striking Arctic Silver Metallic paint over a Metropol Blue leather interior featuring Houndstooth inserts. Powered by a 3.4L H6 engine paired with a 5-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, this coupe has covered just 73,153 miles since new. The water-cooled flat-six delivers strong performance through its DOHC EFI aluminum alloy 24-valve design, while the Tiptronic transmission shifts smoothly and the chassis maintains precise steering and effective braking.

Inside, the Metropol Blue leather seats with Houndstooth inserts remain in excellent condition with only minimal wear, complemented by a like-new dashboard highlighted by the full Dark Wood interior package. The cabin benefits from added seat inserts and a modern stereo system, along with protective Metropol Blue floor mats that preserve the carpets. Key comfort and convenience features include the power sunroof, dual power seat package with electric adjustments, driver seat lumbar support, left side lumbar support, and the Dark Maple Burr wood rear center console along with the Dark Maple Burr wood/aluminum Tiptronic shift lever and brake handle.

Additional enhancements include the Hi-Fi sound package with 10-speaker amplifier system, and the IMS bearing has been replaced as part of comprehensive servicing backed by a complete service file. The exterior stands out with its bright Arctic Silver Metallic finish showing no major scratches or dings, mounted on 5-spoke cup design pressure-cast alloy wheels. Standard equipment such as the aerodynamic drag-reducing under-carriage cover, electric sliding sunroof with wind deflector, and speed-dependent extendable rear spoiler further define this well-maintained example.

Powertrain
Combustion

The Porsche 911 Carrera 996, produced from 1997 to 2006, marks the fifth generation of the iconic 911 lineup and was a significant shift for the model with its water-cooled engine, departing from the traditional air-cooled design. Approximately 175,000 units were produced worldwide across various trims, making it one of the more accessible generations for collectors, though specific variants remain rare. The base Carrera featured a 3.4-liter flat-six engine, later upgraded to 3.6 liters, delivering between 296 and 320 horsepower depending on the model year. Performance highlights include a 0-60 mph time of around 5 seconds for the Carrera and a top speed nearing 174 mph.

For exotic car collectors, the 996 offers intrigue with limited editions like the Carrera 4S and the 40th Anniversary Edition (2004), which are sought after for their unique styling and performance tweaks. While initially less favored due to its design changes, the 996 has seen rising value in recent years, particularly for well-maintained, low-mileage examples and rare variants like the GT3. Its historical significance lies in bridging Porsche’s classic era with modern engineering, making it a pivotal model in the 911’s evolution.
