1996 Porsche 993 C4S
Manual, 6 speed
California Car
3rd Owner
White Exterior
Black Interior
33xxx miles
Factory Aero Kit
Hi Fi Stereo w/ CD Changer
Hard Back Sport Seats
Motor Sound Kit
PSS9 Bilstein Damptronic Suspension
Additional option codes: CO2, XD1, XD2, X47, X58, X70, X71, 030, 159, 329, 373, 374, 445, 454, 490, 650

This car has always been garaged. Always had 2 car covers (interior dust cover in white and exterior cover for dust cover). I also have all service records available for a complete history of the vehicle. I've taken extremely good care of this car while it's been in my possession. I completed a detailed restoration upon purchase (at 29,xxx miles) and it's been well maintained since.

The only thing I’d fault on the car is the original owner resprayed the front bumper and the color-match isn’t perfect. It's not really bothered me though so I've never had the bumper resprayed again.

Also, the Carfax will show 4 owners as the original owner was a company where the CEO received the car as a bonus. A few years later, the car was transferred to his name where he sold the car after 15 years of ownership to the 2nd owner. The 2nd owner kept the car for about a year before selling it to me to focus on a real estate project.

For inquiries, please feel free to email dennis at everythingsf dot com or give me a call at 4158899055. All reasonable offers will be entertained.

Beautiful car. Do you know if the White is Gran Prix or Glacier?

Any chance you can provide photos of the resprayed front bumper against a non-resprayed part?

I have been searching for a nice 993. I like white very much (prefer Glacier to GP). Ideally would prefer C2S and not 4 but open to the right 4. Also prefer no Aerokit, but again am open.

Thanks for the nice comments!

The car is Glacier White. I believe the front bumper might have been painted GP white as it's a little 'warmer' in color.

I'm attaching 3 items:

1) Picture of the fender/bonnet/bumper - you can see that the front bumper is a warmer white than the other two. I'm leaving the size of the picture large for best comparisons.

2) Picture of some of the touch up that's been applied to the front bumper (it has been driven)

3) Video of the front bumper (too large to upload so can be found here:
)



fender / bonnet / bumper


can see some touch-up spots

Thanks so much.

Funny, now that you mention it, I can even see the color difference from the original photos you provided. Sometimes it's hard to tell on those for a variety of reasons--lighting, shadows, camera, etc.--but once you point it, it's clear. I probably would have left it alone, too.

You know it's funny about these cars...I wish I could order one from the factory, but just like land, they "ain't making any more." Yours has super attractive (to me) hardback seats, white dials, and dark interior...and somewhat less attractive to me, factory Aerokit. It's like blondes or brunettes--they're all good, just a matter of personal taste.

If you don't want me to post this, I'll gladly remove it, but I thought you might appreciate it.

I learned something tonight--how to decode Porsche codes.

Here are the codes for your car and I have reasonable certainty that they're correct:

30 Sports suspension
159 Engine sound package
329 Cassette-radio Blaupunkt Toronto SQR 48 or Cassette-radio Becker Porsche CR-210
373 Sports seat, left, height electrically adjustable
374 Sports seat, right, height electrically adjustable
445 Wheel caps (Steel Grey) with colored Porsche crest
454 Automatic speed control
490 Sound system
650 Sun-moon-roof
X47 Carbon gear lever ****
X58 Carbon handbrake lever
X70 Stainless steel door entry guards with model logo
X71 Alu-look instrument dials with chromed rings
XD1 Aerokit front spoiler
XD2 Aerokit rear spoiler
CO2 Equipped with catalytic converter *(probable, but not certain)

Very cool.
