BaT Auction: 37k-Mile 2003 Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe 6-Speed

This 2003 Porsche 911 Turbo is finished in Lapis Blue Metallic over grey full leather and powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter flat six that sends drive to all four wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle. The car was acquired by the current owner in 2014, and is equipped with xenon headlights, a sunroof, a rear window wiper, power-adjustable front seats, cruise control, automatic climate control, and a factory CD player. Modifications consist of a GT2-style clutch, a lightened flywheel, 18″ BBS wheels, an Ultimate Motorwerks ECU tune, a Fabspeed Motorsport exhaust system, WEVO semi-rigid engine and transaxle mounts, a B&M short shifter, and Alcantara interior accents. This 996 Turbo indicates 37k miles and is offered on behalf of the owner with removed factory parts, a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, manufacturer’s literature, service records, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Florida title.

Turbo models feature wider rear fender flares with intercooler air intakes as well as revised front and rear fascias compared to the standard 996. This example is finished in Lapis Blue Metallic (J2) and features xenon headlights with washers, a power sunroof, a rear window wiper, and a speed-activated rear spoiler. The rear bumper guards have been painted to match the body, and a scratch is visible behind the left quarter window. Aftermarket tint film has been applied to the rear and side windows.

The 18″ BBS wheels wear Porsche crest center caps as well as 225/40 and 295/30 Michelin Pilot Sport N3 tires. Stopping power is provided by red-finished brake calipers with white Porsche lettering fitted over cross-drilled rotors at each corner.

The cabin is upholstered in Graphite Grey full leather with matching carpets that are protected by Turbo-branded Lloyd floor mats, and Alcantara has been added to the headliner, shift knob and boot, and trim on either side of the center console. Amenities include power-adjustable front seats, red seat belts, a B&M short shifter, cruise control, automatic climate control, and Bose audio with a factory CD player.

An aluminum-look steering wheel has been re-wrapped in Alcantara with red stitching. Instrumentation consists of a central tachometer and a 200-mph speedometer along with gauges for fuel level, voltage, coolant temperature, and oil pressure. The odometer indicates 37k miles, of which approximately 8k have been added during current ownership.

The twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter flat-six was modified with an Ultimate Motorwerks ECU tune and WEVO semi-rigid engine and transaxle mounts. Multiple fluid changes were carried out in June 2020.

Power is sent to all four wheels through a six-speed manual transmission and an all-wheel-drive system. A GT2-style clutch and a lightened flywheel were installed at approximately 27k miles, and the clutch slave cylinder was replaced in June 2020. A Fabspeed Motorsport exhaust system with headers and catalytic converters has also been fitted.

A Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, manufacturer’s literature, and two keys are included in the sale along with removed factory components. The results of a June 2020 DME report can be seen in the gallery below.

The October 2020 Carfax report shows no accidents or other damage and lists history in Ohio, Connecticut, Florida, and New York. A driving video can be viewed below.
