2000 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet — Black over Savanna Beige, Tiptronic, Low Miles Why This Car Is Special The 996-generation Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet has had a complicated reputation since it left production, and that's actually working in buyers' favor right now. When Porsche introduced the 996 in 1998, it was the first water-cooled 911 in the nameplate's history — a decision that caused genuine controversy among the Porsche faithful who had grown up with air-cooled engines. That controversy suppressed values for years. Today, with the 996 now firmly settled into its place in 911 history, collectors and enthusiasts are recognizing what the numbers always said: this was a genuinely fast, well-engineered sports car that could be maintained and driven without the anxiety that comes with owning a rare, sky-high-value air-cooled machine. This particular car is a 2000 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet equipped with the Tiptronic S 5-speed automatic transmission. The VIN confirms it was built at Porsche's Zuffenhausen facility in the 2000 model year. Decoded, the VIN also identifies this as a Cabriolet body style — the open-top variant of the base Carrera, not the Targa or coupe. That distinction matters. The Cabriolet added meaningful weight over the coupe but delivered the full open-air experience with a fully automated power soft top, something Porsche engineered with real attention to noise suppression and weathertightness. The 996 Cabriolet top operates electrically and stows completely behind the rear seats — no manual latches, no fussing with tonneau covers. What makes this specific example stand out is the combination of color, options, and condition. Black over Savanna Beige is one of the more striking factory combinations available on the 996. The Savanna Beige leather was a premium interior option that filled the cabin with warmth and kept the interior from feeling like a cockpit. Paired with a black exterior and a black soft top, the contrast is sharp without being showy. Add in the Porsche Crest embossed headrests, the Tiptronic steering wheel controls, and the upgraded touchscreen infotainment system, and this car was clearly optioned by someone who cared about how they spent their time inside it. The undercarriage photos confirm what buyers of used sports cars need to know: this car has been kept clean and shows no signs of rust, rot, or damage underneath. The 2000 model year sits in a sweet spot within the 996 production run. Porsche addressed several early-build concerns as the generation matured, and by 2000 the cars were well sorted. The 3.4-liter flat-six in the base Carrera produced 296 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, figures that still feel appropriate for a car this size and weight. The 996-generation 911 Carrera Cabriolet is now old enough to draw serious collector interest but recent enough to be used as a regular driver without parts scarcity becoming a problem.

The M96 displaces 3,387cc, uses a chain-driven DOHC valvetrain with four valves per cylinder, and in Carrera tune produces 296 horsepower at 6,800 rpm and 2
