The Porsche 993 Turbo S: A Timeless Classic

The 993 Turbo S (1995–1998) represents the pinnacle of Porsche’s air-cooled era. With only 345 units ever built, its 3.6L twin-turbo engine (450 HP in the S model) makes it a collector’s dream. At Buckhead Imports, we meticulously assessed every component to ensure its performance and authenticity remained intact:

  • Initial inspection: Diagnostics of critical systems (engine, transmission, suspension).
  • Common issues: Addressing oil leaks, turbo synchronization, and seal degradation.
  • Goal: Preserve its original DNA while enhancing long-term reliability.
