This 1996 Porsche 911 Turbo was specified in Arena Red Metallic over Flamenco Red full leather and was purchased new by the current owner at Beechmont Motors in Cincinnati, Ohio. The vehicle was optioned with supple leather seat upholstery, a CD player, aluminum-look instrument dials, stainless-steel trim, and leather-edged floor mats. Other equipment includes 18″ Technology hollow-spoke wheels, a power sunroof, and power-adjustable front seats. Power is provided by a twin-turbocharged 3.6L flat-six that drives all four wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle with a limited-slip differential. The car has been driven 8k miles while being registered between Michigan, Ohio, Florida, and Arizona, and the clutch slave cylinder and spark plugs were replaced in preparation for the sale. This 993 Turbo was previously listed on BaT in February 2026 and is now offered again on dealer consignment by a BaT Local Partner with a window sticker, manufacturer’s literature, two keys, tools, service records, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Arizona title.

The 993 Turbo featured wider bodywork, revised bumper covers, and a fixed rear spoiler to accommodate top-mount intercoolers when compared with the standard 993 coupe. This example is finished in Arena Red Metallic (84S) and features a power sunroof, a rear window wiper, and stainless-steel exhaust outlets.

The 18″ Technology hollow-spoke wheels were mounted with 225/40 front and 285/30 rear Continental ExtremeContact Sport tires in 2023. The car features an Automatic Brake Differential (ABD), and the 993 was the first 911 to feature multi-link rear suspension. Braking is provided by Porsche-branded four-piston calipers over cross-drilled rotors. The rear wheels were refinished and the brake fluid flushed in preparation for the sale.

The power-adjustable front seats and the twin rear seats are trimmed in special-order Flamenco Red supple leather, and color-coordinated hide extends to the dashboard, center console, and door panels. The interior is further outfitted with cruise control, a CD stereo, and Turbo-branded stainless-steel door sill guards. The air conditioning system was recharged in 2020.

The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames aluminum-look instrument dials comprising a central tachometer, a 200-mph speedometer, an analog Quarz clock, and gauges for oil pressure, oil temperature, oil level, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer was repaired in 2019 and it now shows 8k miles.

The twin-turbocharged 3.6L flat-six was factory-equipped with Bosch Motronic fuel injection and was rated at 400 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque when new. The oil was changed, and the spark plugs and filters were replaced in preparation for the sale. Compression test results are viewable in the gallery.

Power is sent to all four wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle with a limited-slip differential. The transaxle was overhauled in 2023. The clutch slave cylinder was replaced and the underside cleaned with dry ice in preparation for the sale.
