About this car

This 2001 Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe pairs its Speed Yellow exterior with a Black leather interior and a 3.6L H6 twin-turbo engine paired to a manual transmission and all-wheel drive. At 48,784 miles the car retains the widebody stance, retractable split rear wing, and 18-inch Turbo hollow-spoke wheels that define the 996 Turbo. The bold factory color activates every curve, intake, and surface detail while the Black leather cabin provides clean contrast.

Factory options elevate the specification further. Speed Yellow seat belts match the exterior, while the Leather Decor Package, Soft Look full leather seats, driver and passenger lumbar support, and heated front seats create a purposeful yet comfortable cockpit. Additional interior details include Porsche crest headrests, a 3-spoke leather steering wheel in the interior color, leather-covered rear center console, aluminum shift lever and brake handle, aluminum-painted instrument dials, stainless steel door sills, and leather sun visors with dual lighted mirrors.

Technology and convenience equipment includes the PCM Navigation System, Digital Sound Package with remote 6-disc CD changer, Parking Assist System, wheel caps with colored Porsche crest, and the Delete Front Bumperettes option that cleans the front-end appearance. Standard equipment encompasses bi-Xenon headlights, power windows, power door locks, dual power seats, air conditioning, cruise control, AM/FM stereo with cassette, premium sound, ABS, traction control, side airbags, and dual airbags.

Powertrain
Combustion

The Porsche 911 Turbo (996 generation) was produced from 2001 to 2005 as part of the 996 lineup, marking the first water-cooled Turbo model in the 911 series. Approximately 20,000 units were built worldwide across its variants, making it less rare than some earlier Turbo models but still desirable among collectors for its transitional significance in Porsche’s engineering history. It is powered by a 3.6-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six engine, delivering 415 horsepower in standard form, with later S variants reaching up to 450 horsepower. Performance highlights include a 0-60 mph time of around 4.2 seconds and a top speed nearing 190 mph, showcasing its supercar credentials at the time.

For exotic car collectors, the 996 Turbo stands out due to its relative affordability compared to newer 911 Turbos, though values have been appreciating, often ranging between $50,000 and $80,000 for well-maintained examples as of recent market trends. Special editions like the Turbo S, available in coupe and cabriolet forms, add to its appeal with enhanced performance and exclusivity. Its historical significance lies in bridging Porsche’s air-cooled past with modern technology, while features like all-wheel drive and advanced aerodynamics remain noteworthy.
