Used 1996 Porsche 911 for Sale near Dallas, TX

The 993 is my favorite car. I owned one years ago and knew I would get another one some day. I stumbled on this one almost by accident. Very low mileage (39K) for a 28 year old car. The paint, leather and soft top are in perfect condition. I love the air-cooled engine and the cars handling. A joy to drive.

My friend let me drive this car a bit - its amazing. So much power on tap, and an incredible amount of control.

Your picture is of a 993 Turbo. I own a 1998 911 Carrera 2S, manual transmission, which has the same body, but not as powerful. These cars are spectacular and expensive for that reason. One of the best air cooled cars. Buy one if you can find a good one!!

Fun every time you get in it, beautifully built, fantastic performance and handling and not too ridiculously expensive to run. The Targa roof gives you the best of open top running but without the security compromises and the TIPEC owners club is good fun too. Totally recommended! And if you think it's not hard core enough, my suggestion is to buy a crap everyday car, then only drive the Porsche for the good times. Then you'll never get anywhere near it's limits on the road and give yourself a thrill every time you use it.

This is one of the last of the classic air-cooled 911's and rapidly becoming more collectable and valuable than the newer 996 water-cooled models. Its quite old fashioned in ergonomics and interior appearance, but once you get used to it its a great car. Not super-fast performance, but handles well enough for a cabriolet, especially if you fit a strut bar to stiffen the front. Bullet proof build quality.
