Few cars represent the pinnacle of classic Porsche engineering quite like the 993-generation 911. Widely regarded by enthusiasts as one of the most desirable variants of the iconic sports car, the 993 marked the final chapter of Porsche’s legendary air-cooled era.

This 1996 Porsche 911 Targa is finished in timeless black over gray leather, a classic combination that highlights the elegant curves and unmistakable silhouette of the 911.

The 993 generation introduced significant refinements to the 911 platform, including improved suspension geometry and a more modern driving feel while still retaining the analog character that defines air-cooled Porsche ownership. The result is a car that feels both mechanical and engaging, yet surprisingly refined on the road.

What makes this example especially unique is the Targa roof system introduced with the 993 generation. Instead of the traditional removable roof panel, the 993 Targa features a large sliding glass roof that retracts smoothly beneath the rear window, allowing for an open-air driving experience while maintaining the structure and styling of a coupe.

Power comes from Porsche’s iconic 3.6-liter air-cooled flat-six engine, delivering the distinctive sound and character that made these cars legendary. Paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, the driving experience is pure and connected, placing the driver directly at the center of the car’s performance.

With just 50,822 miles, this 993 Targa presents as a well-preserved example of one of the most collectible modern Porsches.

Interior features include:

• Gray leather sport seats

• Porsche five-gauge instrument cluster

• Driver-focused cockpit layout

• Manual 6-speed shifter

• Porsche branded floor mats

• Classic analog instrumentation

Exterior highlights include:

• Black exterior finish

• Signature 993 wide rear fenders

• Power sliding glass Targa roof

• Integrated rear spoiler

The 993 represents the final evolution of the original air-cooled Porsche 911, combining classic design, analog driving feel, and timeless engineering in a package that continues to grow in desirability among collectors and enthusiasts alike.

This example offers a rare opportunity to experience one of Porsche’s most beloved generations in a uniquely versatile Targa configuration.
