The Timeless Charm of the Porsche Turbo 996 Cabriolet.
"A rare and appreciating asset"
There’s something irresistible about the Porsche Turbo 996 Cabriolet. If you're a Porsche enthusiast, you know exactly what I mean—that heart-thumping blend of beauty, power, and pedigree. And today, we’re talking about a particularly iconic gem, finished in a sleek, metallic grey with a soft top that opens up to all the thrills of open-air driving.
Why is the Porsche Turbo 996 Cabriolet Rare?
The Porsche Turbo 996 Cabriolet was introduced relatively late in the 996 production run. The 996 series, produced between 1998 and 2005, saw the introduction of the Turbo Cabriolet variant in 2004. This makes it one of the last models in the 996 lineup, resulting in limited production numbers.
Given its short production period (just a couple of years), only a limited number of these were ever produced, making it rarer than its coupe counterpart.
A true collectors investment.
A Soft-Top for the Sunshine Days
There’s a distinct thrill to owning a convertible Porsche. The soft top on this metallic grey 966 opens up the ride to the world around you, making every journey an experience in itself. Sunsets, starry nights, or coastal breezes—the 996 lets you enjoy the world as it passes by with just the touch of a button. It's pure freedom, Porsche style.

Convertible Soft Top:
The fully automatic soft-top can open or close in about 20 seconds, allowing you to enjoy the open-air experience. The Cabriolet’s design was crafted to maintain the iconic silhouette of the 911 while enhancing its convertible charm.
Design & Interior:
The 996 series was the first to feature the more rounded headlights, a departure from the classic "bug-eye" look. While initially divisive, the design has grown in appreciation among collectors.
The interior is luxurious yet driver-focused, with full leather upholstery, heated seats, and an upgraded Bose sound system.
