911/993 Carrera 2

History

The 993 generation is often said to be the best and most desirable 911, as much due to its unrivalled road-holding qualities as to its beauty. Porsche itself refers to the model as significant progress, both technically and visually. Consequently, it is nicknamed “the purists’ Holy Grail”.

The 993 was available both as a Carrera 2 with rear-wheel drive and a Carrera 4 with four-wheel drive.

993 is the internal model code for the Porsche 911 model manufactured and sold from late 1993 to early 1998, and it is the successor to the 964. The 993 is not only the last air-cooled 911, it is the first with a 6-speed, manual transmission. The car has been given many improvements and is very different from its predecessor.

The entire engine is completely new, reusing only 20% of the components from the 964. It has a newly designed aluminium chassis with wishbone multi-link suspension, eliminating the previous models’ tendency to oversteer.
