This 1995 Carrera Coupe was completed on Tuesday, May 17th 1994 at Porsche’s Zuffenhausen plant in Stuttgart, Germany. This desirable 1995 model-year 911 was ordered with a sensible equipment level, lacking some of the unusual equipment and combinations offered at the time. Dressed in the classic Guards Red exterior color, the interior contrasted with a Cashmere beige, “Supple leather” seating upholstery.
Showing impressively today, this 993 has lived its life in the south since new and is said to wear nearly every square inch of its original, single-stage paint, with only the front bumper being refinished for reasons of normal wear and tear. Now protected with 3M Invisible bra, many of its vulnerable areas are now protected. The condition of the Cashmere beige interior corresponds with the rest of the car, showing hardly any signs of wear. Leather upholstery soft and pliable, carpeted upholstery clean and tight fitting, this 911 even still utilizes its original, Porsche “CR-1” radio that’s so often ditched in favor of aftermarket varieties.
Mechanically, this Carrera coupe has enjoyed a life of continuous attention with a practice of preventative maintenance since its owner first acquired it. With extensive documentation dating back to day one, there are no mysteries with this 993. Maintenance records reveal a steady string of mileage, leaving no blank spots or signs of a broken odometer that’s gone unprepared.
Remaining remarkably original throughout its life, only the wheels and tires have been replaced with the lightweight, forged BBS RE 18″ wheels it’s fitted with today. (Note: Sports Car Digest currently has a set of correct, original Porsche “Cup 2″ 17” wheels available for purchase, should buyers be interested in making the car 100% aesthetically correct).

Our Sports Car Digest private collection currently includes a 1995 Carrera Coupe, and like many, we enjoy its same first-year-only characteristics that include a lack of frustrating anti-theft immobilizer and none of the troublesome emissions equipment that would plague models after 1995.
With opportunities to purchase low mileage, original 993s with a rich, documented history becoming increasingly difficult, this Carrera is a rare opportunity to own one of these cars that’s been carefully preserved over the past 20 years. Even more special is purchasing an automobile that’s been under the care and attention of someone like this seller.

I apologize for the "salesman'ese" !
The car is offered privately and I'm in no way associated with a Porsche dealer. The seller has listed the car through Sports Car Digest, just so there isn't any confusion.

This car is being offered on your website under a "cars for sale" tab. That means it's being offered "publicly." As a result I'm fairly certain Sports Car Digest would need to be a RL sponsor to sell/promote/offer cars here

Any serious ad for a 993 for sale should have a current photo of the driver's seat bolster IMO (especially supple leather) at minimum (since many didn't wear so well), as well as a legible pic of the interior hood option sticker.

I can assure you the OP is not "salesman'ese" or a used car dealer, I know him personally and he is an absolute, certified porschephile just like the rest of us with great connections within the community ... Beautiful car, GLWS

Too funny! Who writes,, or reads like this. A Patagonia catolog ....
Too funny! WTF... who writes like this? LOL. The seller's 993 coupe description text is right out of a Seinfeld TV Citcom. There's an episode that comes to mind were co-star Elaine takes a job where her boss uses Patagonia catalog like speak in everyday circumstances. Too funny.
Forget that the seller's text highlights just how "original" the coupe is, then rotates a 180* when it comes to the glaring aftermarket wheels....
Wow.... impressive photo collage over on SCD ... impressive. At the end of the day 20 year old cars all require attention. Bring money.
Adios -
