1999 Porsche 911 Carrera Convertible - Blue - 121,582km - 3.4L Horizontal 6-Cylinder Petrol, Automatic
Overview
The 996-generation Porsche 911 Carrera represents a watershed moment in Porsche history. Introduced in 1998, it was the first all-new 911 platform in more than two decades, ushering in water-cooled engine technology while retaining the unmistakable rear-engine driving experience that has made the 911 one of the world's most iconic sports cars. This 1999 Porsche 911 Carrera Convertible combines open-top motoring with genuine sports car performance, powered by the renowned 3.4-litre naturally aspirated horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine paired with an automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive.
Finished in blue, this Carrera Convertible presents as a well-maintained example with 121,582 kilometres indicated. The vendor advises the vehicle is accompanied by its logbooks, service history and receipts for work completed throughout ownership. Importantly, the highly regarded IMS bearing replacement has been carried out, providing additional peace of mind for prospective buyers. The vendor also advises that more than $6,000 has been spent replacing the air-conditioning evaporator, air-conditioning compressor and cabin filter, while new front shock absorbers have also been fitted.
The exterior presents well, complemented by a new soft top fitted by the vendor. Inside, the cabin has been updated with the addition of Apple CarPlay, blending modern convenience with the classic Porsche driving experience. The vehicle has also received a ceramic coating to assist in protecting the paintwork and maintaining its presentation.
The 996 Carrera has continued to gain recognition amongst enthusiasts as one of the most accessible and rewarding entries into Porsche ownership. Combining timeless styling, balanced handling and the unmistakable soundtrack of the flat-six engine, this example offers a desirable combination of documented maintenance, significant recent expenditure and tasteful modern upgrades.
