With supercar performance offered in a compact and practical package, the turbocharged version of the Porsche 911 Type 996 first appeared in 2000. Boasting four-wheel drive as standard, the new 911 Turbo was a thoroughly sophisticated and competent all-weather supercar, and although it went out of production in 2005, in day-to-day driving it is still as quick as nearly anything on the road.

This stunning 2003 Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe, finished in Lapis Blue Metallic over a Graphite Grey interior, has been carefully driven fewer than 32,650 miles since new. The impressive list of factory options on this car includes the highly desirable X50 Turbo Power Kit, stainless steel exhaust pipes, carbon door sill model insignia, leather sun visors with lighted mirror, a three-spoke steering wheel trimmed in carbon and leather, a carbon-trimmed shifter, aluminum trimmed pedals, and supple front and rear full-leather seats with special-color interior stitching and Porsche-crest headrests, all bringing the original manufacturer’s suggested retail price when new to $142,045.

The previous owner was a very astute Porsche enthusiast and only installed proper and manageable extras that add to the car’s drivability. Some of the carefully chosen aftermarket upgrades include a JRZ RS One adjustable suspension, GT2 clutch, GT2 decklid, Cobb Performance Tune with Access Port, Agency Power carbon fiber intake, red Alcantara 997 shift knob, custom carbon fiber trimmed steering wheel and center console, and a Pioneer head unit with backup camera. A recently mounted set of Michelin Pilot Sport tires compliment the high-quality list of upgrades.

Accompanying the car is a clean Carfax, a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, two keys, books, service records, tools, the original decklid, original center console, original radio unit, original steering wheel, and original suspension components. Attention to detail, both mechanically and aesthetically, make this superb X50-equipped 2003 Porsche 911 Turbo a thrilling proposition.
