Porsche 911 (993)Photography coming soon
The last air-cooled 911. The 993 represents the pinnacle of Porsche's analog era, perfecting a formula before the water-cooled 996 changed everything.
History
By the mid-1990s Porsche knew the air-cooled era was ending. The 993 was the final statement. Multilink rear suspension tamed the 911's handling quirks. The Turbo S produced 450 hp from a twin-turbocharged flat-six. Only the sound of the air-cooled engine at 7,000 rpm tells you this isn't a modern car.
