2001 Porsche 911 Carrera

This well-maintained 2001 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet has a color-matched removable hardtop and an M96 3.4-liter flat-6 paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission. The accident-free CARFAX accompanying the vehicle shows nearly 30 service records throughout the life of the vehicle. This 78K-mile 911 started off in Ohio and was moved to the southwest before traveling to Montana in early 2022, where it is currently located. Finished in Arctic Silver Metallic, this 996-chassis Carrera is now offered with a clean CARFAX report, an owner’s manual, a recent service invoice, and a clear Montana title in the seller’s name.

Given the internal designation of 996, a redesigned 911 Carrera was introduced in 1997 and displayed an all-new design that was seven inches longer and two inches wider than its predecessor. This Carrera Cabriolet from 2001 is painted Arctic Silver Metallic with a matching removable hardtop and features xenon headlamps, body-colored sideview mirror caps, an active rear spoiler, and dual polished exhaust outlets. As the photos in the gallery show, there are scratches on the nose and paint blemishes on the side mirror housings, and a recent inspection suggests that the vehicle has been repainted.

Aluminum 18-inch Turbo-look wheels with colored Porsche crests are wrapped in low-profile tires with 90%+ tread remaining. The seller notes that the axle boots were recently changed. The chassis uses a multi-link rear suspension. The braking system leverages four-wheel anti-lock discs, four-piston calipers, and cross-drilled rotors.

The cabin is fitted with heated and power-adjustable black leather bucket front seats along with black door panels, dash, and carpeting as well as silver accents. Additional amenities include automatic climate control, power windows, power door locks, and cruise control.

Instrumentation is centered around an 8K-rpm tachometer and includes a 180-mph speedometer and auxiliary gauges for the voltage, fuel level, coolant temperature, and oil pressure. The digital odometer reads 78K miles, which is supported by the CARFAX report. Per the recent inspection report, a failed fuse was found to be responsible for the illumination of the check engine and ABS lights and an inoperable speedometer. The codes were replaced and the faults cleared and the issue was remedied.

The water-cooled rear-mounted 3.4-liter M96 flat-6 was rated at 300 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque when new. Recent maintenance includes an oil change and a replacement water pump and battery, and an inspection was performed within the past month. The CARFAX notes that a service was performed at a dealership in Las Vegas, Nevada in December of 2021 and also contains nearly 30 other maintenance-related entries throughout the car’s lifetime. Power is directed to the rear wheels via a console-shifted 5-speed automatic transmission.

Photos showing the underside are available in the carousel. The inspection report documents the front sway bar links have torn boots.

The CARFAX report shows a vehicle history free of accidents or damage and documentation of a passing Arizona emissions inspection in 2019. The sale includes an owner’s manual. Videos showcasing additional vehicle details have been provided by the seller, who also reports that he can assist with vehicle transportation.
