1998 Porsche 911 Carrera 996 Coupe - Blue - 189,557km - 3.4L Flat-Six, Automatic
Overview
The 1998 Porsche 911 Carrera 996 represents a major turning point in 911 history, introducing the first water-cooled generation of Porsche’s legendary rear-engined sports car. The 996 brought substantial advancements in performance, refinement, aerodynamics and everyday usability while retaining the unmistakable silhouette and driving dynamics that define the 911 lineage. This particular example is a right-hand-drive coupe finished in blue and powered by the renowned 3.4-litre horizontally-opposed flat-six engine paired with an automatic transmission.
As the first of the modern-era 911s, the 996 combined improved chassis dynamics, greater cabin comfort and modern engineering with the classic rear-wheel-drive balance that enthusiasts continue to appreciate. The 3.4-litre flat-six delivers strong naturally aspirated performance along with the unmistakable Porsche engine note that has become synonymous with the 911 nameplate.
This example presents as an honest and usable driver-quality vehicle showing approximately 189,557 kilometres on the odometer. The blue exterior displays age-appropriate patina consistent with the vehicle’s mileage and use, while body presentation appears generally straight with even panel gaps visible. The iconic coupe profile remains instantly recognisable, featuring the smooth integrated body styling and modernised design language introduced with the 996 generation.
Inside, the cabin features the familiar Porsche driver-focused layout with supportive sport seats and accommodation for four occupants. The automatic transmission enhances daily usability and touring comfort while retaining the engaging character expected from a Porsche 911. The vehicle is also supplied with owner’s manuals and documented service history.
The 996 generation has gained increasing recognition among enthusiasts as an important chapter in Porsche history, representing the beginning of the modern water-cooled 911 era. Right-hand-drive Australian-delivered examples continue to attract interest thanks to their usability, performance and growing collector appeal.
