1997 Porsche Carrera 2 Cabriolet

Description

This lot will be auctioned via Hampson Auctioneers, The Hampson Auctions Sale at Oulton Park on Sunday 27th July from 12noon, Little Budworth, Tarporley, CW6 9BW.

Representing the end of an era, this 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 Cabriolet belongs to the celebrated 993 generation — the last of the air-cooled 911s. With its naturally aspirated 3.6-litre flat-six engine featuring the desirable Varioram induction system (introduced in 1996 for improved torque and responsiveness), the 993 is widely regarded as one of the finest and most collectable iterations of the 911.

Finished in classic black over black leather, this example is specified with Tiptronic transmission, sought-after factory sports hardback seats, and what appears to be a Gemballa-designed sports exhaust system. The vendor, a committed Porsche enthusiast, has clearly cherished the car, with extensive maintenance history and mechanical investment to show for it.

The odometer reads 93,708 miles, with the original service booklet stamped up to 92,617 miles. Notably, the engine was rebuilt by Porsche less than 1,000 miles ago, with accompanying paperwork confirming the work. The car has also received new tyres, new convertible roof motors, a Porsche Classic stereo system with modern Bluetooth connectivity, and reupholstered front seats and steering wheel. The history file includes over £28,000 in receipts documenting recent expenditure, along with original book packs and further associated paperwork.
