43k-Mile 2002 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet 6-Speed

Description

The 996-generation 911 arrived for 1999 as the most significant reinvention of the iconic nameplate in decades, introducing a water-cooled flat-six for the first time in the model's history and a larger, more modern body that divided purists while delivering a genuinely faster and more refined driving experience. Today, the 996 represents one of the most accessible entry points into Porsche 911 ownership, with values that have begun climbing as the market recognizes the generation's engineering merit and its place as the last truly analog 911.

Finished in Polar Silver Metallic paired with a blue convertible soft top and extended interior leather, this 2002 996 Cab shows just under 43,000 miles.

Equipped with a 6-speed manual gearbox, 18” Carrera II wheels, heated power-adjustable supple leather front seats, and a CDR-220 radio with Bose audio system, the seller states that this example has been serviced front to back including an IMS bearing replacement.

This 2002 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet is now offered with one key, a fitted car cover, partial service records, manufacturer’s literature, a clean CARFAX Vehicle History Report, and a clean Florida title in the seller’s name.
