About this car
This 2002 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 Cabriolet pairs the iconic 996 styling with a Seal Grey Metallic finish over a Graphite Grey leather interior. Powered by a 3.6L H6 engine paired with a 5-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission, the car has been driven 51,712 miles and remains in strong mechanical condition following a recent complete oil and fluid service.
The water-cooled flat-six delivers smooth, powerful performance through the automatic gearbox, while the power convertible top allows open-air driving with the added convenience of a glass rear window. The interior features leatherette seats with leather inlays, a leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel, and dual-zone automatic climate control that keeps the cabin comfortable year-round.
Externally, the car rides on optional 18-inch Carrera wheels fitted with colored-crest caps, and the Seal Grey Metallic paint presents with excellent luster and minimal wear. Standard safety equipment includes ABS, driver and passenger airbags, door-mounted side-impact airbags, and a speed-dependent rear spoiler.

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.
