Description
This gorgeous 1 of 122 1998 Porsche 911 Targa was delivered new to the first owner at Pfaff Porsche in Toronto. The original photograph of the car in front of the Pfaff Porsche with Chris Pfaff and the purchaser. This is just 1 of extensive documentation of the cars history from spanning over 20 years of Canadian ownership. Regular servicing has been routine for this 6-speed manual transmission rear wheel drive 911 Carrera Targa. Finished in Black paint over Black interior with Sport Seats.
This particular car is a rare opportunity to acquire an ultra desirable last year of production air cooled 911. Tastefully upgraded is the audio system which boasts a new Porsche digital head unit with Apple Carplay, Bluetooth and Handsfree. The challenge of finding a 1998 Porsche 911 is just that – a challenge. This was a short production year for Porsche and the 911. The factory only produced about 25% compared the its previous year. This combined with the end of air-cooled engines makes any 1998 911 more desirable then the 95,96 or 97 model years.
The 993 generation 911 Carrera Targa was an extremely low production variant during the last year ever that Porsche would build an air cooled car. Just 122 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa cars were delivered to North American in 1998 of which just a small number entered Canada. The Targa used a brand new system that swapped a glass roof for the aging vinyl removable panel. The glass roof allowed the entire panel of glass above the occupants to retract below the rear window.
The 1998 Carrera Targa was powered by Porsche’s 3.6L naturally aspirated flat 6 engine found throughout the 911 lineup. Porsche introduced VarioRam to their cars in 2006 and which helped the 3.6L produce 285hp and 250ft lb of torque. The transmission of choice for a 993 of course is the 6 speed manual transmission, such as in this car.
Purchase, Trade or lease this iconic air-cooled Porsche 911 with manual transmission.
