Twenty years later, it's clear that the Porsche 996 continues to gain in character and recognition. This superb 996 Carrera is the perfect illustration. Its Arctic Grey exterior, Turbo wheels, and discreet silver Carrera monogram on the tailgate create a restrained and timeless look, true to the understated elegance of Porsche design. This example captivates with its visual harmony: the blue leather interior flows subtly into the blue electric soft top, creating a refined continuity. Even better, the matching hardtop is included, complete with its mounting brackets.

The emotion is palpable even before you turn the key. The low driving position, the four-spoke steering wheel, a direct descendant of the legendary 993, and the sweeping view of the central tachometer create a decidedly sporty atmosphere. From the moment you start the engine, the flat-six awakens with its raw, authentic sound, a mechanical signature that makes the hearts of purists beat faster. Without artifice, without a turbo, without intrusive screens or driver aids, it's the pure driving experience.

This 996 Cabriolet was delivered new in Germany by the Porsche Centre in Göppingen, before being imported to Italy, where it belonged to two successive owners who were particularly attentive to its maintenance until 2011. It then went to France, where it had only two more owners. The last one kept it for over twelve years, meticulously maintaining it and using it sparingly, exclusively for pleasure drives.

With only four owners in total, including two in France, this 996 testifies to a clear and reassuring history, a guarantee of passion and preservation.

Our 996 is in excellent overall condition, both inside and out. Mechanically, it's in superb shape: the flat-six engine runs smoothly, the gearbox is precise, and the whole package delivers a lively, fluid, and reassuring driving experience. Having just undergone a major service, the car is ready to be enjoyed both for everyday use and for spirited drives.

 The vehicle is non-smoking, has never been in an accident and has never been on a track.

We have the matching hardtop with its original fixing covers, the original pouch containing the service booklet, the spare key, all the documentation as well as a large file of invoices.

Our selling price includes VAT, ecological penalty and a 6-month mechanical warranty (possible extension to 12/24 months).
