The Model: The Porsche 996 Turbo made its debut at the Frankfurt Auto Show, in September of 1999, and went on sale in the US in the summer of 2000 as a 2001 model, with final production ending in 2005. The story lines in car mags, that surrounded the debut, were all about the performance. And rightfully so! The 996 Turbo was powered for the first time by a water-cooled engine, boosted by twin-turbocharged/intercooled 3.6L H-6 derived from the 1998 Le Mans winning GT-1 car. The engine produced a neck-snapping 415 HP at 6000 rpm and 415 lb·ft of torque. The 996 Turbo also featured Porsche’s all-wheel-drive system and was available with either a 6-speed manual or a 5-speed Tiptronic transmission to get power to the ground. Revised styling for the Turbo gave it a wider stance than the naturally aspirated 996 Carreras, along with new bi-xenon headlamps. The Turbo also came with VarioCam Plus, and Porsche’s stability management system, that included a rear spoiler that automatically raised at 76 mph and lowered at 36 mph. Performance from the four-wheel-drive and a 3.6-liter twin turbocharged and intercooled flat-six made the car capable of zipping 0 to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds, and could blast through a quarter mile in 12.30 all while maintaining 189 mph top speed.

The Car: The 996 Turbos is still rather new and modern to be called a classic, yet with its fantastic supercar 911 performance it has the makings of becoming a true legend. Arguably better performance than the mighty and highly collectible Porsche 959. This beautiful black Turbo with its 19 inch BBS wheels, upgraded suspension gives the car an aggressive stance. The car also received a new lightweight GT3/RS style single mass and high-performance Sachs clutch to improve performance response & acceleration. Original equipment, draped leather rear seats, leather front sport seats, Porsche crest embossed in the headrest, Alu-look instrument faces, XPA thicker steering wheel, navigation, premium Bose sound system, 6-disc CD changer Becker Porsche CDC-3, and stainless steel door entry guards with logo. Exterior is in very good condition with only light marks and blemishes. The interior is excellent, very clean, good leather smell and very little to no wear. This would be a great car for track day events or blast down your favorite back road.
