One of the most interesting and capable of all iterations of Porsche's 993-generation 911 is the comprehensively uprated, 4-wheel drive Carrera 4S, introduced for the 1996 model year. Powered by a naturally aspirated flat-six engine developing 282 factory-rated horsepower with Porsche's innovative VarioRam intake system and paired with a simpler and lighter version of Porsche's all-wheel-drive system, the Carrera 4S shared its wide rear fenders, bumpers, huge, red-painted 4-piston brake calipers, 18-inch Turbo-look alloy wheels and ultra-low profile tires with the 911 Turbo. The speed-activated rear spoiler of the 911 Carrera was also included on the 4S. Road tests documented the electrifying performance of the Carrera 4S, with Car and Driver magazine recording 0 to 60 acceleration in 4.9 seconds, the quarter-mile in 13.5 seconds and a top speed of 161 mph. Stellar roadholding was reported at 0.87g on the skid pad and braking from 70-0 mph required only 161 feet. Just 6,948 examples of the C4S were produced for 1996-98 model years.

Sporting an unforgettable, factory-specified Black-on-Black leather combination, this 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S is an outstanding example of these rare performers, offered with just 39,642 miles at the time of writing. Carrying a $69,100 MSRP new, this Carrera 4S is loaded with 17 extra-cost factory options costing over $12,000 when new, beginning with the $672 Option Code 030 Sport Chassis.

An MSRP printout is on file, listing all standard and optional features of this stunning performer. A clean Carfax vehicle-history report is also included, detailing this very special Porsche's three owners from new, the first having owned the vehicle in Texas for its first 17 years, 9 months. Recent service and maintenance includes the fitment of new tires, replacement of all shocks and springs, installation of a new clutch, an oil change and color-sanding and buffing of the paint finish, among other items.
