SOLD: My 993 C4S - Polar Silver/Midnight Blue
SOLD SOLD SOLD!!!!
1996 Carrera 4S, Polar Silver with Midnight Blue interior, 111,XXX miles.
Clear CarFax and AutoCheck, no stories.
Clear title in hand, no liens.
Certificate of Authenticity from PCNA.
Options:
C02 - Catalytic Converter
X97 - Aluminum/Leather Shift ****
X98 - Aluminum/Leather Parking Brake
329 - Radio Porsche CR-210
454 - Automatic Speed Control
650 - Sunroof
The car is in great shape for the mileage. The engine pulls very strong, recent leak down test with excellent results. Brad Penn 20W-50 oil, Blackstone Labs oil reports available. Dry motor, no leaks. Uses less than 1 quart of oil every 2500 miles.
MAJOR service completed in March 2012 including clutch, slave cylinder, bleed clutch and brake system, replace distributor, distributor caps and rotors, ignition wires, crankshaft seal, chain tensioner gaskets, valve cover gaskets, spark plugs, oil change + oil filters, clean secondary air injection ports, new battery (BOSCH), power steering belt, rear wheel bearings, air filter, cabin filter, fuel filter, corner balance, and alignment. New tires at that time as well.
All electrical components work, strong A/C, no issues.
The body looks very presentable for a car with this mileage. However the front bumper will need some attention. I hit a turkey at 50MPH a couple of years ago and the paint underneath the clear bra has spider web cracks. The bumper itself is not cracked. It looks good from a few feet away but the imperfections are noticeable up close. Rear bumper has 2 tiny dimples form another car's license plate bolts when I had the car parked on the street in Manhattan. Not visible unless you're very close. The rest looks very good with original paint.

I have an Excel spreadsheet with the maintenance/repair work done on the car since March 2001 or 44K miles and will be happy to send it to prospective buyers. Also have a 3-ring binder with receipts, state inspection certificates, etc. that will be sent to the new owner.
For the last 12 years this car has been owned by Porsche enthusiasts with no expenses spared to keep it in top shape. I am the 4th owner and have had it since October of 2009.
The car comes with 2 sets of keys/remotes, all books, tools, spare wheel, and tire inflator as well as an OEM Porsche car cover. Also comes with 2 sets of blue floor mats, one of them has the Carrera 4S script with a red S. And I'll throw in Adrian Streather's 993 Companion book AND a printed set of the factory manuals.
No stock parts are included and I will not be parting it out. If it sells, it sells as a package.
Fun fact: The driver sun visor was autographed by Porsche CEO Matthias Müller at last year's Baltimore Grand Prix.
Pictures were taken last Fall prior to putting the car in storage for the winter. The only change since then is new front brake pads that I installed. I'm planning to change the oil this weekend if the weather cooperates and I can take it for a drive to warm it up.

ilko.. what are you doing!?
For any potential buyers that haven't seen the car in person, it is stunning. I had the pleasure of spending a day behind ilko on some great roads. I could not stop wishing my car looked like that.
Ilko truly has one of the best looking 911s period.

There aren't many cars I would sell a 993C4S for. That being said, a 997.1 TT is one of them. GLWTS Ilko. I think you will enjoy the creature comforts found in a 997..

If anyone is in the market for a 993, this is an exceptional example. I've seen this car numerous times and it's been extremely well cared for and maintained. Definitely a consideration for a potential 993 wide body shopper. This is a great find! Good luck with the sale Ilko!

I wish I knew then what I do know now. I bought my first 993 from a high end dealer in Chicago. It was a decent car but no records and ultimately I dumped a ton of money in it getting to to my standards both on maintenance and mods.
I didn't make that mistake twice and while my current 993 was purchased from an individual who is not a Rennlister I started my search here for obvious reasons.
ilko is an active member. Car is well documented and presented in detail. I have always relied on my gut and while I don't know ilko or the car if I wanted a widebody that I could drive for many more miles with zero issues this would be the one. GLWS.
