Model history:

When Porsche introduced the 911 of the 993 generation in 1993, there were again the classic body variations coupé, targa and convertible, as usual at Porsche. As with its predecessor (964), this 911 generation also had an extendable rear spoiler, no matter which body version was chosen. For the first time, the 993 series was equipped with a six-speed gearbox as standard, and the four-speed automatic transmission was again available as an option. In addition to the engine, the multi-link rear axle had also undergone a thorough revision, which now enabled even higher lateral accelerations. With the 993, the 911 also had an air-cooled boxer engine for the last time.
