BRING A TRAILER

A mint-condition 1998 Porsche 911 Carrera S, is currently up for auction via Bring A Trailer. Originally sold in Las Vegas by Gaudin Ford-Porsche for $70,000—later, it was then shipped to British Columbia before it was imported back to the U.S. in 2024. This 993 C2S is available at no reserve in California, along with the original literature, a tool kit, a clean Carfax report, and a title from Washington.

The 993 CS2 exterior features wider bodywork and is complemented with a revised bumper cover, side skirts, split rear grille, and a speed-activated rear spoiler–along with a power-operated sunroof, power-adjustable mirrors, fog lights, headlight washers, and a dual-exhaust outlet. For wheels, this 993 rides on 18″ hollow-spoke Technology wheels, fitted with Bridgestone Potenza tires.

A Porsche Classic Communication Management (PCCM) head unit has been added, with navigation and smartphone connectivity stereo complete with a HiFi loudspeaker system—in addition to a remote six-disc CD changer, air conditioning, and cruise control. In a record from January 2014, it was noted that the odometer was not functioning but was later fixed. The current six-digit odometer reading indicates 21,000 miles.
