Overview of 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet For Sale by Owner

Porsche’s 911 is one of those cars that has reached legendary status in the minds of not just petrolheads, but the general motoring public. It’s widely acknowledged as one of the most iconic and well-known sports cars from Germany, with its unique shape and of course, rear-mounted flat-six engine. From the nameplate’s inception in 1964 until 1998, the aforementioned engine was of an air-cooled nature. Since 1998, water cooling took over in response to more power demands and stricter emissions standards. So, there’s a distinctive division there, for 911 fans. Do you go for a classic air-cooled machine or a contemporary water-cooled one? Of course, since the air-cooled era ran for over thirty years, there are several generations to pick from there. So what if you want an air-cooled 911 that’s sufficiently modern for regular use? Well, you’d want to select something like this 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet that’s for sale right now in Chino Hills, California. This sub 67,000-mile machine has reportedly undergone a full restoration to make it as close to new as possible.

Exterior and Interior

Wearing a new coat of Aventura Green Metallic paint that’s reportedly a 2023 paint job, this 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet sits pretty on a set of recoated 17-inch Porsche wheels, giving it a timeless stance and near factory freshness from the moment you set eyes on it. We’re told that the body has been ceramic coated to protect the new paint as best possible, while the black power-operated convertible top is said to be a new unit. The brake lights are also new, we’re informed. The Cashmere Beige passenger cabin features a new interior with new seats and new carpeting. It’s a 2+2 layout which means two adults plus two children can easily travel in this 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet. The front seats are power-adjustable as well, and there’s a Sony Bluetooth-capable radio installed within the dashboard, right next to the air conditioning control panel.

Engine

The 3.6-liter flat six that powers this 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet is naturally aspirated, and of course, air-cooled. The unit was factory rated for 282 horsepower. It powers the rear wheels through a 6-speed manual transmission. We’re informed that the car has got new brakes, new hoses, new brake lines, new seals and new gaskets. So, it’s ready for daily driving duties if you wish.
