This stunning paint-to-sample Rivierablau (Riviera Blue) 993 Carrera is an exceptionally distinctive example of the final air-cooled 911. The Porsche’s jewel-like hue is complemented by the rarely specified Aerokit I option, lending the car a purposeful stance that recalls the firm’s successful 993 GT racing program. Inside, the Porsche’s Classic Gray leather interior provides an elegant contrast, creating a refined cabin environment.

For the 1996 model year, 2,109 Carrera Coupes were delivered to the US, but few were configured with this level of individuality. Clearly ordered by a discerning Porsche enthusiast, the 911 was not only optioned in its stunning exterior color but equipped with the optional M030 Sport Chassis, limited-slip differential, and electrically adjustable factory sport seats.

Used sparingly, as one might expect of a 993 in such a collector-grade specification, the Carrera displayed just over 19,000 miles at the time of cataloguing, making it even more desirable as an extremely low-mileage example.

Representing the final evolution of Porsche’s hand-built, air-cooled 911, the 993 is revered for its analog purity, exceptional feedback, and unmistakable flat-six soundtrack. Beautifully configured, low-mileage, and visually arresting, this Riviera Blue Carrera exemplifies the enduring appeal and rising significance of one of Porsche’s most celebrated models.
