1997 993 Carrera 4S in black with cashmere interior, with 55,300 miles. It’s in outstanding condition inside and out. The car has been very well cared for and I am the third owner. I’m a PCA member and car enthusiast, and meticulous about maintaining my cars. Everything works and the A/C blows cold. I have all service receipts for the last 5 years (the first owner apparently didn’t keep his receipts).

OPTIONS
329 – Radio CR-210
425 – Rear Window Wiper
437 – Full Power Seat, Left
438 – Full Power Seat, Right
445 – Colored Wheel Center Caps
454 – Cruise Control
490 – Hi-Fi Sound System
491 – Turbo Look
650 – Sunroof

UPGRADES

-Factory M030 springs w/Bilstein shocks

-HID headlight upgrade on low beams. The original H1 bulbs come with the car and can be easily switched back.

-Turbo S ducts with LEDs. The original fog light units come with the car and can easily be switched back.

-Fister Stage 3 mufflers with Dansk wide ovals. The original exhaust tips are also provided.

-Blaupunkt Montreal CD head unit and Blaupunkt speakers. The original CR-210 head unit, CD changer and Nokia amp come with the car also.

EXTERIOR

The paint is excellent. I get frequent compliments on it. There are a few very small nicks on the front bumper as you would expect, but other than that there is not a single significant flaw in the paint anywhere.

I replaced the original 18” twist wheels with TechArt Formula wheels, 8.5x18 and 10.5x18. The original wheels will come with the car. Unfortunately, one of the Techart rims got some curb rash recently (see pic). I’ve been told it can be repaired but I haven’t checked with a repair shop. New Sumitomo HTR Z III tires, 235/40 and 295/30, were mounted just recently. Wheels come with locking lug nuts.

INTERIOR

The dash and steering wheel, carpet and seats are all in excellent condition. The outside bolster on the driver’s side shows a little wear but less than what I’ve seen on most other cars. The original tan gear shifter and brake lever were replaced with black ones to give the interior some additional contrast, but the original pieces come with the car if you want to change them back. New Lloyd’s floor mats were added a year ago with the Carrera 4S logo and black binding. Brand new door seals ($370) were installed also at that time.

MECHANICAL

The engine and transmission run beautifully, and the car passes tough Denver emissions standards easily. I installed the M030 springs and Bilstein shocks that I bought from Carnewal, and it improved the car’s handling and ride significantly. Service performed in the year that I’ve owned it:

6/18/11 - new distributor caps and rotors
- new engine lid shocks
- new fuel filter
- new air filter
- new pollen filters
7/8/11 - new brake rotors and pads – Hawk Performance Ceramic pads, low dusting
- new spark plugs
7/12/11 - complete brake fluid flush, including ABD system flush
- complete transmission fluid flush including front differential
4/22/12 - A/C fan resistor replaced
6/24/12 - completed 2 year service. Oil/filter change (both filters replaced)

Also included:

Original window sticker
2 fobs, original switchblade, valet key
Owners manuals

You can PM me or contact me (Dave) at d.bertrand@comcast.net or 303-931-7230 for any questions, or additional pictures. The car is located in Thornton, CO, a north Denver suburb. A PPI is welcome, at buyer’s expense.

It's just an asking price. The price is negotiable...always has been.

But thanks for the bump.
