This 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S coupe was first registered in Texas and relocated to California in 2000, and it now shows 44k miles. The car is powered by a 3.6-liter flat-six that drives all four wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle, and it is finished in Arena Red Metallic over Classic Gray leather upholstery. Equipment includes the Motor Sound Package, 18″ Turbo Twist wheels, a speed-activated rear spoiler, cruise control, a CD stereo, power-adjustable front seats, and air conditioning. This 993 C4S coupe is offered on dealer consignment with a clean Carfax report and a clean California title.
The 993 C4S features wider rear bodywork in comparison with the standard Carrera as well as a front air dam derived from the contemporary Turbo. This example is finished in Arena Red Metallic (84S) and features headlight washers, fog lights, heated power-adjustable mirrors, black rear bumperettes, a speed-activated rear spoiler, and dual exhaust outlets. Close-up photographs of exterior paint chips are shown in the gallery below.
Silver 18″ Turbo Twist wheels are mounted with Continental ExtremeContact tires. The car features an Automatic Brake Differential (ABD), and the 993 was the first 911 to feature multi-link rear suspension. Braking is handled by red-finished Porsche-branded calipers over cross-drilled rotors at all four corners.
The power-adjustable front seats are upholstered in Classic Gray leather and complemented by a color-coordinated center console, door panels, and carpeting. Amenities include cruise control, power windows, and air conditioning.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation including a central tachometer with a 6,800-rpm redline, a 180-mph speedometer, a Quarz analog clock, and gauges for oil pressure, oil temperature, oil level, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 44k miles.
The air-cooled 3.6L flat-six features a VarioRam intake system and was factory-rated at 282 horsepower and 250 lb-ft of torque, which is sent to all four wheels via a six-speed manual transaxle. The car is equipped with the optional Motor Sound Package, which added a revised intake and mufflers.
