AI Listing Summary

A 1997 Porsche 911 (993) Carrera Cabriolet in Ocean Blue Metallic with only 42,836 miles and a full Porsche main dealer service history, boasting 18 years of single ownership.

Condition

The car is presented in outstanding original condition throughout, retaining an originality that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Its low mileage (42,836 miles) is reflected in the condition of both the exterior and interior. The description mentions it is an unmodified, correctly specified 993 and has been sparingly used, dry stored and maintained without regard to cost. This suggests near-perfect condition with only minor signs of use, not noticeable without close inspection.

By the end of production in 1998, the 993 had become the last chapter of an engineering philosophy that had defined Porsche for over three decades, cementing its status as one of the marque's most sought-after modern classics.
