You are bidding on a very nice, increasingly rare 1996 Polar Silver Metallic 993 Porsche 911 Carrera with only 36,199 miles. This car is factory original, clean and in excellent running condition. The reserve price is set at a very reasonable level. I reserve the right to end this listing at any time prior to the reserve price being met.
History of the vehicle - I purchased the car in South Florida where (it is my understanding), the car was originally acquired by its primary owner in 1995/96 up until a few years ago when he transferred title to his family in Georgia. I can tell the original owner cared for this car as it has been well kept. The family sold the car to an auction house and was subsequently purchased by a Miami dealer and sold to me in 2012. The reason I am selling the car is simply because I don't drive it enough to justify the vehicle storage which is limited at my home.
Maintenance - The car is stored in a climate controlled garage and has never seen snow or ice. According to a relative of the original owner, the car was maintained by a Porsch facility in Miami. I spoke to the mechanic that maintained the car and he remembers the car and its owner. He stated that the original owner was meticulous about the maintenance of this vehicle and verbally gave an overview of the regular services preformed. He could not release the service records since they included personal information on the owner. I also had the car inspected by another Porsche shop in Miami and it checked out. Since I do not possess the maintenance records, I took the car to a local Porsche dealer/service center this summer and had an inspection done as well as the extensive 30,000 mile recommended maintenance (per the manual), just in case it did not get done previously. I also had new Michelin tires installed. I will include the receipts for the recent service and new tires to the new owner. Also included is the original owners manual, 2 keys with fobs, spare tire and wheel lock.
Overall the car is beautiful, runs strong and there are no mechanical issues that I am aware of. The interior of this car is in excellent condition. The paint color (Polar Silver), is really nice and still shiny but has normal wear and tear as the car has been driven for 18 years. There are some small blemishes and stone chips in the paint only noticiable up close and obtained in the normal course of driving.
Shipping - Buyer is responsible for the cost and arrangement of shipping.
Payment - A $2,000 deposit is due 48 hours after the auction ends with the remainder due within 7 days of the auction ending in the form of a bank cashiers check. Once full payment has been received and cleared, the title and keys will be sent and the car can be picked up.
THIS VEHICLE IS BEING SOLD AS IS WHERE IS WITHOUT WARRANY OF ANY KIND.
Serious buyers only are welcome and encouraged to inspect the car in person before bidding.
Thanks for your interest.

Volkswagen, Bosch reach diesel settlement worth $1.6 billion
Wed, Feb 1 2017Volkswagen Group of America and automotive parts maker Bosch reached a settlement in which the two companies will pay a combined $1.6 billion because of their roles in the automaker's diesel-emissions scandal. VW, Europe's largest automaker, will pay about $1.2 billion to either repair or buy back vehicles. Bosch said separately that it will pay more than $300 million to owners of diesel-powered Volkswagens, Audis, and Porsches. The settlement stems from emissions issues related to about 78,000 VW-made cars and SUVs with 3.0-liter V6 diesel engines that were sold in North America. VW will recall and repair about 58,000 vehicles made for the 2013-through-2016 model years. The company will also buy back, offer a trade-in credit, or terminate the leases for about 20,000 cars for the model years 2009 through 2012. The older impacted models are the Volkswagen Touareg and Audi Q7, while the newer ones are the Touareg and Q7 as well as Audi's A6, A7, A8, A8L, and Q5 models, and finally the Porsche Cayenne Diesel. Previous reports estimated the payout at closer to $1 billion. The US settlement follows one reached last year between VW and US regulators in regards to VW's 2.0-liter diesel engines. That settlement was estimated to cost VW about $15 billion and impacted owners of about 500,000 vehicles. VW has had a stop-sale on its diesel vehicles in the US since late 2015 after it was discovered that VW installed software in its diesels that allowed those vehicles to cheat emissions-testing systems. VW on Wednesday also reiterated that it would contribute $225 million towards environmental-remediation efforts in the US. Volkswagen of America CEO Hinrich J. Woebcken, in Wednesday's statement, said that "we will continue to work to earn back the trust of all our stakeholders and thank our customers and dealers for their continued patience as this process moves forward."

Porsche 911 already testing next refresh
Wed, 11 Dec 2013The latest Porsche 911 may still be a newer car, but that hasn't stopped the German company from starting development of a facelifted version of the rear-engined sports car, testing in what looks like southern Europe.
Due to hit the market in 2015, our spies think what we're seeing here is the new GTS variant, which, following the evolution of the last-generation 911, will make its debut on the facelifted car. Featuring the wider rear haunches of the all-wheel-drive Carrera 4, the GTS should enjoy a slight power boost, to 408 ponies.
Aesthetically, there are some additional vents in the rear bodywork, along with a revised front bumper and tweaked day-time running lights. The taillights get some attention as well, and will likely grow over the current car's skinny rear lamps.
