Vehicle Overview

Ended on Bring a Trailer Auctions : 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet in Black with Black

This 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera cabriolet was first registered in Texas and relocated to California after it was acquired by the current owner in 2001. The car is finished in black over matching leather and powered by a 3.6-liter flat-six mated to a six-speed manual transaxle. Equipment includes a black convertible top, 18? chrome Turbo-look wheels, fog lights, cruise control, air conditioning, an Alpine head unit, and aftermarket speakers. Service completed within the last two years consisted of replacing the drive belts, spark plugs, distributor cap and rotor, upper and lower valve cover gaskets, and battery. This 993 cabriolet shows 61k miles and is offered on dealer consignment with a top boot, manufacturer’s literature, service records, a clean Carfax report, and a clean California title.

Staggered-width Turbo-look 18? wheels wear Hankook Ventus V12 Evo2 tires. Braking is handled by black-painted calipers with white Porsche lettering fitted over cross-drilled rotors at each corner. The rear wheels show curb rash.

The cabin features seats trimmed in black leather along with a matching dashboard, door panels, and carpets. Amenities include electric windows, front seats with power height adjustment, cruise control, air conditioning, an Alpine head unit, and aftermarket speakers.

A leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a central tachometer, a 180-mph speedometer, a clock, and two combination gauges. The six-digit odometer shows 61k miles, of which approximately 15k have been added by the current owner.

The air-cooled 3.6-liter flat-six was factory-rated at 282 horsepower and 250 lb-ft of torque. Service completed in October 2018 included replacement of the upper and lower valve cover gaskets, drive belts, spark plugs, and distributor cap and rotor, while a new battery was installed in October 2020.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle. Additional underside photos are available in the gallery below.
