GarageScout Take

A 3.8-liter 993 engine and 993 six-speed give this Carrera 2 a substantially different mechanical identity, with the build extending through the suspension, brakes, exhaust, and RS-style details. Guards Red is uncommon among observed examples of this generation, while mileage sits mid-pack at 42,648 miles.

Strengths

  • 3.8-liter replacement 993 engine with documented rebuild components and custom fuel lines.
  • 993-sourced six-speed transaxle paired with a new clutch and flywheel.
  • Period-style exterior and interior changes include a fiberglass ducktail, houndstooth seat centers, and black Porsche script stripes.

Watch For

  • The original drivetrain was removed for a project about a decade ago; the car now uses a replacement 993 engine and 993-sourced transaxle.
  • Modified from its original specification with extensive engine, transmission, suspension, brake, exhaust, exterior, and interior changes.
  • Paint has a couple of small chips.
