About this car

The 2001 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet stands out in Seal Grey metallic with gray leather upholstery, a 3.4-liter flat-six, and a six-speed manual transmission driving the rear wheels. The car shows 17,643 miles and carries both the Comfort Package and Technic Package. Recent work includes a new clutch and RMS, a new LN IMS bearing, four new tires, fresh annual service, new cabin filters, new vanity mirrors, and new hood and trunk struts.

Power windows and mirrors operate alongside heated side mirrors and a power-operated convertible roof. Front fog lights and approach lamps aid visibility, while the rear spoiler and 18-inch turbo-look alloy wheels with colored-crest caps define the exterior. Inside, sport-bucket front seats and rear buckets are trimmed in graphite gray leather, matched by a three-spoke leather steering wheel, leather shift knob, cruise control, and keyless-entry remote.

Standard safety equipment comprises dual front airbags, front side airbags, four-wheel ABS, stability control, traction control, and an alarm system. The audio system includes a cassette player, and the cabin is finished with power steering, front air conditioning, a center console, clock, and rear-window defogger.

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.
