Prixvo’s Position
This 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera, finished in Arctic Silver Metallic, is a prime example of the 993 generation. Originally sold in Texas and imported to the UAE in 2022, it features a 3.6-liter flat-six engine with a 6-speed manual transmission.
Offered by Rare Breeds Automotive with original documents, service records, and a clean history, this low-mileage, all-original 993 Carrera is in excellent condition with a clean CarFax and no accident history. With sought-after suspension, shifter, and exhaust upgrades, it’s a rare chance to own a piece of Porsche history that continues to appreciate in value. The 993 generation is often regarded as the last of the truly classic 911s, combining traditional Porsche air-cooled engineering with modern advancements. It wears its blemishes proudly as a true driver’s example, and extensive and highly desirable suspension, shifter and exhaust upgrades. If you want to enjoy what this generation has to offer to its fullest extent, this is the car to bid on.
Vehicle Condition
- Clean CarFax from previous US ownership (See attached below)

- The trunk lining is slightly misaligned but does not affect functionality.

- The seller notes the exhaust tips are not aligned correctly due to clearance issues with the aftermarket catalytic converters.
- Seller notes when the car sits for extended time periods, the timing covers weep oil.

- ‘Its been ‘repaired’ and works, just is a little ‘ugly’ so we felt it needed to be mentioned to not be a surprise for the buyer.
- Unfortunately a comprehensive repair from behind is a huge amount of work to do on the bodywork of a car with original paint. So often they’re done like this externally as the lesser of two evils on a common issue.
