It’s Turbo Time! 26K-Mile ’01 Porsche 996 Turbo 6sp

Posted on February 14, 2019 by flatsixadmin

This 2002 Porsche 911 Turbo (VIN WP0AB299X1S686291) has a claimed 26,765 miles and is finished in Arctic Silver Metallic over Graphite Grey full leather. The seller states, “This vehicle won’t last long, take it home today”. Remember, no IMS/RMS work needed with the Turbos as they lack the IMS bearing design. Find this one offered here on Autotrader in Milford, Delaware for $45,999.

Autocheck is clean folks. Not the most exciting color combo, but still a smoking deal.

2001 saw the introduction of the 996 Turbo. On the exterior, the Turbo body was widened 65mm at the rear and a new moving rear wing was designed to improve lift busting.

The front-end was redesigned with a new bumper designed for better road holding and downforce and the lights were reworked after all the complaining customers did because the 911 couldn’t be distinguished from the “pedestrian” Boxster. 

This Turbo appears to sport it’s stock aluminum Brembo “Big Red” Calipers, 330mm (13″) discs and 18″ Turbo wheels. The sellers pics are horrible and the VIN isn’t decoding, so not going to offer much on options.

  

This 996 Turbo sports the M96/70 twin-turbo charged, DOHC engine good for 420 HP with updated VariocamPlus and DME. Porsche couldn’t fit the intercooler on top of the engine, like in previous iterations, so it was split into two and mounted on each side of the engine. The cooling is supplied through the ducts to the rear of the doors (thus widebody).

The interior is finished in “Graphite Grey” with the full leather treatment. No Buildsheet but we do spy full leather, heated seats, and suede headliner from the dark potato pics.

These 996 Turbos offer exotic levels of performance for not much money these days. A typical “boutique” dealer would be asking $55K plus for this car.  If you want your firstflatsix to be the Turbo variety, this looks like one worth enquiring about. Ask for a PPI! And please don’t forget the DME printout. Make this turbo your #firstflatsix
