What to expect: Reveal of Porsche Owings Mills Project Car
Porsche Owings Mills is excited to announce our participation in the Porsche Restoration Challenge 2025! This year, we are showcasing a special one-owner 1999 Carrera Coupe, finished in Mirage Metallic with Savanna Beige leather interior. We discovered this well-preserved 996 in the desert near the Utah/Nevada border. The 1999 model year is considered special by Porsche enthusiasts due to its unique features and more "analog" driving feel, closer to the classic Porsche experience.
The 1999 996, without the additional luxuries and complex electronic systems found in later years, is appreciated for its direct, "no-frills" driving experience. This simplicity is often preferred by those who prioritize driving dynamics over comfort and luxury.
For this year's build, we’re focusing on the unique aspects of this early 996 that make it so special. Our goal is to reduce weight, enhance aerodynamics, and boost engine performance, creating the ultimate driver's 996. Stay tuned for updates and follow us on Facebook and Instagram as we transform this 996 into our vision of the "996 Club Sport."
During the event, we will meticulously evaluate our 26-year-old 996, both mechanically and cosmetically. Our agenda includes a comprehensive overview of planned upgrades for the 911, transforming it into our visionary restored masterpiece, along with essential maintenance and repair considerations. Expect in-depth discussions covering wheel and tire fitment, suspension enhancements, brake systems, as well as essential maintenance and repair insights tailored specifically for the 996 model.
This event also presents a prime opportunity to connect with our dedicated team and delve into any technical inquiries you may have about Porsches. We eagerly anticipate your presence, as we embark on this exciting endeavor together.
