AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
HIGHLIGHTS:
• Iconic Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet, 996 generation, paired with an automatic transmission
• Original hardtop included in the sale
• Additional central radiator and sporty “sound” exhaust tips installed
• Equipped with two remote controls for starting the vehicle
HISTORY/OVERVIEW:
Introduced in late 1997, the 996 generation marked a major turning point in Porsche 911 history, with the move to liquid cooling and the adoption of a completely redesigned chassis to enhance comfort and driving dynamics. The Cabriolet variant combines the performance of the rear-mounted boxer engine with the versatility of open-air driving, complemented by the removable hardtop. The vehicle on offer was purchased through the platform a few years ago and was subsequently left unused and stationary. The service book is not present, and the history of previous maintenance is unknown. Two remote controls are supplied: one is fully operational, while the second starts the vehicle but does not operate the central locking.
BODYWORK/PAINTWORK:
The bodywork is in normal used condition, with some widespread superficial marks and scratches on the bumpers, as well as stone chips on the front hood. The convertible top mechanism works properly; the outer fabric shows signs of age, and the rear window attachment is deteriorated but remains secure, while the headliner has a few tears. The left power window is not working and will likely require replacement of its mechanism. The underbody is in normal condition for its age, with a few small areas of surface rust.
INTERIOR:
Overall, the interior is in used condition consistent with the car’s age. Several optional wood veneer inserts have cracks, damage, or missing sections, particularly the trim positioned above the upper part of the dashboard. An aftermarket double-DIN stereo has been installed in the center console in place of the original unit.
MECHANICAL:
The vehicle is roadworthy and starts and runs, with the automatic transmission operational. The brake warning light comes on sporadically or intermittently (likely due to a bad connection), while the shock absorber bump stops show slight wear. The car is equipped with an additional central radiator, non-original sporty exhaust tips, and a new battery. The brakes are effective, while the tires, although they have good tread remaining, are old. The vehicle requires general maintenance.
The vehicle can be viewed and collected by appointment.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
