About this car
The 2001 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 996 is finished in Black over Grey leather and has been driven 72,973 miles. Powered by a 3.4L H6 engine paired with a 6-speed manual transmission and all-wheel drive, this coupe delivers the sharp handling and balanced performance expected from the 996 generation. The exterior features 18-inch Turbo Look wheels with wheel caps displaying colored Porsche crests, while the interior has been updated with an aftermarket sound system and fabric seat inserts that complement the original leather.
Recent maintenance includes a complete oil and fluid service performed within the last 20 miles along with replacement of the IMS bearing. The water-cooled flat-six remains strong, the manual shifts cleanly through all gears, and the steering and brakes respond with precision. Air conditioning blows cold, all electronics function correctly, and the Grey leather seats show virtually no wear. The Black paint retains its luster with only minor nicks and chips typical of a used example.
Additional equipment includes the Power Seat Package and Porsche Stability Management. The cabin is protected by Graphite Grey floor mats with Porsche lettering, and the overall condition reflects careful ownership throughout its life.

The Porsche 911 Carrera 4 (996 generation) was produced from 1998 to 2005, marking the first major redesign of the iconic 911 with a water-cooled engine, replacing the air-cooled units of previous models. As part of the 996 lineup, the Carrera 4 variant featured all-wheel drive, distinguishing it from the rear-wheel-drive Carrera. Approximately 175,000 units of the entire 996 generation were produced, with the Carrera 4 making up a smaller, yet significant portion, enhancing its appeal among collectors seeking less common configurations.
Equipped with a 3.4-liter flat-six engine initially, later upgraded to 3.6 liters in 2002, the Carrera 4 delivered between 296 and 315 horsepower, depending on the model year. Performance highlights include a 0-60 mph time of around 5 seconds and a top speed nearing 174 mph. Its all-wheel-drive system offered superior traction, making it a versatile choice for varied driving conditions. For exotic car collectors, the 996 Carrera 4 is gaining attention as values trend upward, particularly for well-maintained, low-mileage examples or special editions like the 40th Anniversary model (2004). Its historical significance lies in being a transitional model in Porsche’s evolution, often debated for its design but respected for engineering advancements.
