1997 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Factory Aero Kit 6-Speed

Offered from a discerning collection, this 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Coupe (Type 993) is distinguished by its highly desirable factory Aero Kit (Y75), specified from new with an aggressive front spoiler and fixed rear wing that give the final air-cooled 911 an even more purposeful appearance. Combined with the Carrera 4S's widebody shell borrowed from the 911 Turbo, the result is one of the most visually striking and uncommon configurations of the 993 generation. Produced in November 1996 for the 1997 model year, the 993 is celebrated as the last air-cooled 911 and the first to feature Porsche's advanced multi-link rear suspension, enhancing both handling precision and everyday refinement. This example shows 52,753 miles and is accompanied by a binder of service receipts dating from 2012 to the present.

 

Power comes from Porsche's 3.6-liter air-cooled flat-six (engine type M64/23), rated at 282 horsepower and 250 lb-ft of torque for U.S.-market 1997 Carrera 4S models, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission (G64/20) and Porsche's viscous-coupled all-wheel-drive system. Four-wheel independent suspension (MacPherson struts front; multi-link rear), power-assisted ABS braking, and the C4S's Turbo-derived chassis hardware define the driving experience, while the aerodynamically smoothed underbody and factory Aero Kit further enhance the model's performance-oriented character. A 19.4-gallon fuel tank, dual catalytic converters, and factory automatic climate control reflect the model's dual mission as both grand tourer and high-performance icon.

 

Finished in Arena Red Metallic (H8) over Cashmere Beige/Black partial leather (LC), this Carrera 4S was additionally specified with the Dual Power Seat Package (P15). Owner-noted equipment includes the Porsche CDR-210 CD stereo, while known changes are limited to silver trim rings around the gauges and an IMMO BLOCK device installed to disable the immobilizer. Recent documented service highlights include a March 2025 visit for new Bilstein B6 struts, an oil service, brake-fluid flush, manual transmission service, and alignment, with tires reported to carry 2023 date codes. With its rare factory Aero Kit, desirable widebody Carrera 4S specification, six-speed manual transmission, and extensive service documentation, this 993 represents an especially compelling example of Porsche's final air-cooled 911.
