Het verhaal achter deze...
- The Porsche 993 Turbo X50. Remember the woman you should have married? Don't make the same mistake twice. -
A 911 that often made Porsche scratch behind the ears. Thanks to a twin turbo, the hot-turbocharged air boxer was so fast that the 930 and 964 were darlings in terms of handling. And those bore the name "widowmaker". Because even Ferdinand realized that not every passionate home-grown father could compare himself to the Stig, all-wheel drive came standard. And that was anything but an unnecessary luxury!
And then back to the engine. The last air-cooled boxer. We dare say that the 3.6 boxer from the 993, was one of, if not THE best engine of the 911 reihe. The mechanical sound, the "forced" howl at higher revs and the effortless climb in revs. She comes alive when you give her a good spanking. Only then, can you distinguish a Porsche from the rest. And sure; the air cooling is less efficient and emits a little more. But the sound and reliability is and remains unbeatable!
Ours, of course, is a little extra special. Besides all the standard options, the first owner also ticked the X50 option. An option that boosted the -already quite potent- 408 HP to 430 HP. In the end, only 183 Turbos were born in Stuttgart with this option! In addition, the entire history is known and all booklets are neatly stamped. Who will come and see the Polar Silber supreme-993'er with us?
- It gets a little bit louder above the 5,000 RPM, so you can't hear the passenger scream. -
