Chassis No. WP0AA299X1S620522
Sold new on 16 October 2000, this 911 Carrera 4 Coupe was finished in Black over a Black leather interior and ordered with a three-spoke leather steering wheel, color crest center caps, the Advanced Technic Package, Power Seat Package, Design Package, 18-inch Sport Classic wheels. Perhaps most important is a common option not selected-a sunroof. The CARFAX Vehicle History Report shows that the car stayed with the original owner until the second and current owner purchased it in June 2020.
Since their acquisition, the 996 Coupe has been restored and upgraded to realizing their personal vision of the ultimate rear wheel drive 996-generation 911. The car was stripped to a rolling chassis with the first step in the restoration process being a comprehensive dry ice cleaning. The bodywork was thoroughly refinished using the current Paint to Sample and historical 356-era shade of Auratium Green, while the interior was refreshed with Campbell Dress plaid seat inserts. The exterior was additionally reassembled with new zinc-plated hardware, seals, emblems, trim and an original aero kit. The interior was also upgraded with silver seat belts, silver painted accents, and a Continental Bluetooth radio.
More than a cosmetic restoration, the car's mechanical systems received the same level of attention. A new M96.01AT short block, improved at the factory with the upgraded 997 IMS bearing was sourced from Porsche while the cylinder heads were overhauled by Bob Hurst at Anchor Atlantic of Pitman, New Jersey. The exhaust system was upgraded with 997-generaton Carrera S headers with internally modified factory mufflers.
Continuing in the pursuit of crafting the ultimate 911, power is now sent exclusively to the rear wheels removing the heavy and often complicated front wheel drive system. The suspension received new Bilstein B6 shocks, H&R springs, H&R adjustable sway bars, and Porsche Motorsports lower control arms. The finishing touch was replacing the wheels with 19-inch Carrera S II wheels from a 997.2 generation 911 finished in Weiss Gold. Thoroughly upgraded and restored in a holistic manner with thought and care, this 2001 911 Coupe has covered just 900 miles since completion. It is furnished with extra Auratium Green paint, toolkit, tire inflator, factory Porsche aero kit cover, two keys, and books.
