Daytona Automobil presents a 1997 Porsche 911 (993) Turbo delivered new in Portugal and exceptionally preserved in factory specification with complete provenance and service history.

This example of the Porsche 993 Turbo was first delivered on January 7th, 1997, by FOZ-CAR, an official Porsche dealership in Portugal. It has remained in Portugal ever since, never leaving the country or being registered elsewhere. As a late-production model, this 1997 Turbo benefits from technical revisions that distinguish it from earlier 1996 examples. These include the upgraded transmission input shafts, a flashable ECU, integrated motion sensors in the overhead light console, and the Turbo-embossed wheel center caps.

The car is finished in L744 Black Metallic (Schwarz-Met), a factory original color that remains in excellent condition with no signs of previous accident damage and matching body numbers. All original carpeting is still present, and the condition of the interior, including its VD-coded extended full leather package in black, indicates a car that has been carefully maintained and stored. Notably, this is the full leather trim (VD), not the partial leather version (VN).

Having covered just 100,339 kilometers from new, this 993 Turbo is accompanied by full documentation, including all original books and manuals, two keys, tool kit, and the original air compressor. Importantly, there is no corrosion around the windshield edges—a common flaw in the 993 generation—highlighting this example’s structural integrity and careful ownership history.

The most recent long-term owner, a globally recognized athlete and Porsche collector, acquired the car on February 16th, 2016, and retained it until it was acquired by Daytona Automobil. During this ownership, the car received diligent care, including regular oil and brake fluid changes carried out by a reputable Porsche specialist, complementing a robust history of authorized Porsche dealer servicing.

The maintenance record is complete, showing consistent servicing throughout its life and aligning with both time and mileage intervals. All service entries are documented and available:
