Factory color
Guards Red
Guards Red is one of Porsche's most recognizable colors: a rich, solid red with a minimal hint of orange and a special luminosity that makes a bold statement on any 911. Originally known as India Red, it has been offered as a standard 911 color since the 1970s. Earlier cars, including mid-1980s 911s, carried it under code 027, and it later appeared under codes 80K and 84A on models including the 964, 993 and 996 into the early 2000s.

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.
