The Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (996 generation) was produced from 1998 to 2005, marking the first major redesign of the iconic 911 with a water-cooled engine, a departure from the traditional air-cooled design. As part of the 996 lineup, the Carrera 4S variant was introduced in 2001 for the 2002 model year, with production estimates of around 25,000 units worldwide across coupe and cabriolet body styles, making it less common than the base Carrera models but not exceedingly rare.
Equipped with a 3.6-liter flat-six engine, the Carrera 4S delivers 315 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 6-speed manual or 5-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission. It features all-wheel drive, distinguishing it from rear-wheel-drive Carrera models, and achieves 0-60 mph in approximately 4.8 seconds. Unique features include wider rear fenders, a distinctive rear reflector strip, and upgraded brakes shared with the 911 Turbo. For exotic car collectors, the 996 Carrera 4S holds appeal due to its transitional significance in Porsche’s history and increasing value trends, with well-maintained examples appreciating as the 996 generation gains recognition among enthusiasts. Special editions or low-mileage units are particularly sought after.
