Overview of 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 Cabriolet For Sale by Owner

The 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 Cabriolet (993) represents the final generation of Porsche’s legendary air-cooled 911 lineage, combining classic rear-engine character with the added confidence of Porsche’s Carrera 4 all-wheel-drive system. Showing 81,911 miles, this example is powered by the iconic 3.6L naturally aspirated air-cooled flat-six paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, delivering the engaging driving experience that has made the 993 generation highly sought after among Porsche enthusiasts. Finished in Black over Cashmere Beige leather, this one-owner Carrera 4 Cabriolet offers a desirable combination of open-top Porsche motoring, timeless styling, and classic analog driving feel.

Exterior and Interior

The exterior is finished in Black and features the timeless proportions of the 993-generation 911 Cabriolet, complemented by a black convertible soft top and classic 17-inch 5-spoke wheels. The car retains the elegant and understated appearance of a late air-cooled Porsche while incorporating practical features such as the original body-color exterior trim elements and convertible design. Inside, the cabin is trimmed in Cashmere Beige leather with full leather seats, creating a luxurious contrast to the dark exterior. Equipment includes the Dual Power Seat Package, Hi-Fi Sound Package, and embroidered “Porsche” front floor mats, adding both comfort and enthusiast-focused details. The convertible top has been replaced with an aftermarket unit, which currently operates manually due to non-functional electronic components.

Engine

The Carrera 4 Cabriolet is powered by Porsche’s renowned 3.6L naturally aspirated air-cooled H6, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission and Porsche’s all-wheel-drive system. The 993 platform features advanced suspension engineering for its era, including independent front and rear suspension systems, providing a balance of classic Porsche feedback and everyday drivability. As one of the final air-cooled 911 models, the 993 Carrera 4 remains highly desirable for its mechanical character, analog driving experience, and connection to Porsche’s motorsport-inspired heritage.

$350,000

The 2026 Porsche 911 GT3 is about as close as a modern road car gets to wearing its motorsport DNA on its sleeve, and this example leans fully into that character. Showing just 2,152 miles, it pairs the 4.0L naturally aspirated flat-six with the enthusiast-favorite 6-speed GT Sport manual transmission and rear-wheel drive, giving it the kind of mechanical involvement that has become increasingly rare. Beneath its dealer-installed Black color paint protection film is a Guards Red exterior, while the specification goes much deeper with the Weissach Package, Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes with yellow calipers, Front Axle Lift System, Chrono Package, and satin dark silver wheels. Inside, Black Leather/Race-Tex with Guards Red stitching, Guards Red seat belts, carbon-fiber trim, and Race-Tex details keep the cabin firmly focused on the driving experience. This is a GT3 configured with the hardware purists tend to care about most, but with enough thoughtful equipment to make it usable beyond the occasional weekend blast.
