This 2002 Porsche 911 Turbo coupe is finished in Basalt Black Metallic over Graphite Grey and is powered by a 3.6-liter flat-six fitted with K-24 turbochargers, a Fabspeed exhaust, and an upgraded ECU.

The car features the factory Aerokit and full carbon package, while additional modifications include Cross Competition coilovers, H&R sway bars, Champion wheels, an aftermarket stereo, a backup camera, and LED headlights. Now showing 50k miles, this 996 Turbo is offered in Long Beach, California with service records, receipts for the upgraded components, manufacturer’s literature, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Montana title in the name of the seller’s LLC.

The car is finished in Basalt Black Metallic (Z4) and came factory-equipped with the Turbo Aerokit, a rear wiper, and side air inlets. Aftermarket LED headlights with black covers have been installed, along with a replacement front spoiler, dark window tint, and European-market side markers. The seller notes that the left mirror inner-trim retainer clip is broken and the left taillight is chipped.
