Dealer Comments

This sensational 1997 Porsche Carrera Targa, in Arctic Silver over Black Leather Interior and with just 56k miles from new, is powered by a 282hp/3.6L 6-Cylinder Engine with a 6-Speed Manual Transmission. Factory installed options fill this already stellar car and consist of Black Interior Leather Seats, Torque Limited Slip Differential with ABD, Arctic Silver Metallic Paint, Power Seat Package, Remote 6-Disc CD Changer, Heated Front Seat Package, and Rim Caps with Porsche Crest.

Standard equipment consists of a 3.6L 6-Cylinder Engine, Dual 3-Way Catalytic Converter, Varioram Resonant Induction, Hot Film Air Flow Sensor, DME Engine Management System, Dual Exhaust System, Heated Windshield Washers, Four-Piston Vented Disc Brakes, Anti-Lock Brakes, Rear Wheel Drive, Full Independent Suspension, Multi-Link LSA Rear Suspension, Front and Rear Stabilizer Bars, Speed Activated Rear Spoiler, Projection Headlights, Fog Light, 17" 2-Piece Light Alloy Wheels, Filtered Ventilation System, Automatic Climate Control with A/C, Remote Entry with Alarm, Immobilizer Anti-Theft System, Cassette Radio with 6-Speakers, Solid-Glass Power Targa Roof, Power Operated Sunshade, Power Windows, Front Seats with Power Height Adjustment, Headlight Washers, Power/Heated Side Mirrors, Automatic Speed Control, Dual Front Airbags, and a Fully Galvanized Unibody.

The 993 Porsche was the last of the air-cooled variety and had a 5-year run from 1993-1998. The Targa was created the last 3 years of this run and is built on the convertible body while featuring a retractable glass roof. The cockpit styling is every bit as refined as you'd expect and this Porsche maintains basic design themes from the past but boasts cleaner layouts and enhanced functionality, particularly the classic instrument cluster which includes an ignition lock in the traditional Porsche location -- to the left of the steering wheel. Though the cabin has a function-oriented layout, upscale materials on the doors and dashboard, and remarkable craftsmanship and attention to detail throughout welcomes both driver and passenger. The black leather seats in front are firmly bolstered and deeply contoured, and are in excellent condition, offering miles of comfortable driving.

As would be expected from Porsche, long known for its unique sports car engineering, the Porsche 911 Carreras came from the factory with cutting-edge performance technology. Porsche fitted them with suspension technology capable of handling high-speed cornering. Engine and transmission employed the latest technology to deliver incredible acceleration while keeping fuel economy reasonable.
