Throttle Auctions: Final Air-Cooled Porsche 911 in Rare Zenith Blue Heads to MarketA 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 Coupe representing the last of the company's air-cooled era is being offered for sale, finished in an uncommon Zenith Blue Metallic over a tan interior.The car belongs to the 993 generation, which many collectors consider among the most desirable versions of the 911. The 993 marked the end of Porsche's air-cooled lineage, blending the mechanical character of the classic cars with enough refinement to make them genuinely drivable. This example carries those traits with low mileage and a long ownership history.The coupe shows just 28,925 original miles and has been with its second owner since 2002. That owner purchased the car in Oregon with roughly 13,000 miles on the odometer before having it transported to Massachusetts. Over the years it has been looked after by respected Porsche specialists, including Stuttgart Auto Tech in Lake Oswego, Oregon, and Autosport Engineering in Massachusetts.Beneath the rear deck sits Porsche's naturally aspirated air-cooled flat-six, paired with a six-speed manual transmission. Combined with the rear-wheel-drive Carrera 2 layout, a balanced chassis and hydraulic steering, the setup delivers the analog, connected driving feel that has cemented the final air-cooled 911 as a benchmark among enthusiasts.AdvertisementAdvertisementThe car has received a handful of measured upgrades, among them an RS conversion kit, revised suspension, upgraded wheels and a modernized radio. The changes sharpen its presentation and driving character without erasing the underlying appeal of the platform. All of the original equipment is included in the sale, giving the next owner flexibility and supporting the car's collector value.Service is reported to be current, with records included. Recent and preventative work covers a clutch replacement and a repair of the known electronic board issue. The sale also includes a clean title, leaving a low-mileage 993 that offers timeless styling, mechanical purity and an engaging drive.Find Out More About This Car HereJoin our Newsletter, follow our Instagram page, and follow us on Facebook.
