Exterior: L92U – Arctic Silver Metallic
Interior: Full Blue leather
Soft top: Sonnenland Blue

The Arctic Silver with blue soft top and Blue leather interior is one of the most elegant and refined combinations of the period. ORIGINAL HARD TOP – RARE AND VERY EXPENSIVE OPTION The car is equipped with an original Porsche hard top in perfect condition. The hard top for the 996 Cabriolet was an extremely expensive option at the time (over €3,500–4,000 depending on the market) and is now very difficult to source, especially complete with accessories and in excellent condition. Advantages:

Improved thermal and acoustic insulation
Sleeker coupé-like profile
Increased structural rigidity
Ideal for winter use
Increased collector value

Included accessories:

Original hard top
Wind deflector

C07 Italian market version
236 Porsche-spec tires
413 18" wheels
441 Radio preparation
490 Sound Package (amplifier + upgraded speakers)
571 Pollen/cabin filter
662 PCM 1 (Porsche Communication Management with navigation)
692 CD changer (6 discs)
936 Rear seat in leather
983 Front seats in leather

In summary, the configuration includes:

Italian-market version
Full leather interior
Complete multimedia system for the period (PCM + CD changer)
18" wheels
Sound Package

TECHNICAL FEATURES OF THE MODEL The 1999 996 Carrera 4 Cabriolet represents:

First water-cooled generation of the 911
M96/02 6-cylinder boxer engine
Permanent all-wheel drive with viscous coupling
6-speed manual gearbox (Tiptronic optional)
0–100 km/h in approximately 5.2 seconds
Top speed approximately 280 km/h

An evolved chassis compared to the 993, with greater rigidity, improved safety, high performance, and everyday usability. MODEL HISTORY AND RARITY The 996 series (1997–2006) marks a historic turning point for Porsche: it is the first 911 to abandon air cooling, opening a new technological era. The 1999 Carrera 4 Cabriolet version represents:

The very first production years of the 996 Cabriolet
A configuration increasingly sought after today if original Italian and ASI certified
Even less common when equipped with the original hard top
