Ocean Blue 1999 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet with 6-Speed Manual & Recent Overhaul
About this vehicle
Ocean Blue Metallic over Savanna Beige leather — and this 996-generation Cabriolet didn't leave Stuttgart as a bare-bones car. NHTSA VIN data places it as a 1999 Porsche 911 Convertible/Cabriolet with a 3.4-liter flat-six. The six-speed manual comes paired with a limited-slip differential, and the driver's seat carries both memory and lumbar support. Porsche's Exclusive catalog pushed things further: stainless steel exhaust pipes, Light Rootwood and Light Burr Maple interior trim, leather-covered dashboard and door panels, plus assorted bespoke details that separate it cleanly from anything that rolled off the line in standard trim.
The body was refinished in its original Ocean Blue Metallic shade under modern clear coat, carried out at the same time a door was replaced. Headlights got polished and clear-coated. Speed-activated rear spoiler, dual exhaust outlets — the signature 996 exterior cues are all present. Riding on aftermarket 19" OZ Leggera lightweight alloy wheels, the car wears Sumitomo HTR Z5 tires: 235/35 up front, 295/30 at the rear. A new 911 Carrera badge and a 2025 wind deflector round out what's changed outside. Per the seller, no scratches, no dents. Clean CARFAX is in hand.
The Exclusive woodwork carries through the cabin without interruption. A Light Rootwood-rimmed steering wheel pairs with a leather-covered airbag module; the shift knob is Light Burr Maple, as is the handbrake lever. New heated leather seats were fitted in 2025, and the 8-way electrically adjustable fronts still retain their memory and lumbar functions. Audio runs through a Becker six-disc CD changer. Some age- and sun-related imperfections exist, and the driver's-side mirror needs adjustment — the seller otherwise describes the interior as damage-free. The retractable blue soft top closes out the open-air setup.
December 2023 brought the mechanical work worth noting here. IMS bearing replaced, new clutch, water pump, spark plugs, gaskets, and starter — the engine was rebuilt on stock components. Exhaust is a ceramic-coated Fister sport unit. A 997-type short shifter was dropped in for a tighter gate. Suspension upgrades came under prior ownership: Bilstein struts and H&R springs. No warning lights. No leaks, no unusual noises, and the seller says all receipts are available to back up every item on that list.
The sale includes a clean title, owner's manuals, toolkit, spare tire, service documentation, sales literature, and two keys.
