A remarkable 1990 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 coupe, once stored away for nearly a decade, has reemerged and is now offered for auction without reserve through a partnership between the Porsche Club of America (PCA) and a specialty dealership in Arizona.

This striking Guards Red Carrera 4 was generously donated in 2020 to PCA by one of its members. Since acquiring the vehicle, PCA has invested significantly in restoring and upgrading the coupe, creating an appealing blend of classic aesthetics and modern performance enhancements.

At its heart lies Porsche’s venerable air-cooled 3.6-liter flat-six engine, factory-rated at 247 horsepower and 228 pound-feet of torque, paired to a five-speed manual transaxle driving all four wheels. Recent mechanical refreshes include fuel-system overhaul, replacement of valve cover gaskets, spark plugs, distributor components, and meticulous valve adjustments. The coupe also features an aftermarket Fabspeed exhaust system, enhancing both performance and sound.
Further performance upgrades include KW V3 coilover suspension, a front strut brace, and upgraded brake components sourced from Porsche 964 Turbo and 993 models, dramatically improving handling and stopping capabilities. Its 18-inch HRE wheels wrapped in performance-oriented Pirelli P Zero tires round out the chassis improvements.

Inside, Recaro Pole Position seats with distinctive patterned inserts have replaced the factory seats, complementing the original black and beige cabin trim. PCA also added a Porsche Classic stereo and upgraded speakers, blending modern audio capabilities seamlessly with the vehicle’s retro charm.
During its refurbishment, PCA addressed key cosmetic and corrosion issues, performed paint correction, replaced windshield and body seals, and meticulously cleaned the undercarriage using dry-ice blasting.
This special 911 coupe is accompanied by thorough service records, owner’s manuals, removed original components, and a clean Maryland title. Despite its documented mileage discrepancy noted in a 2024 Carfax report, the odometer currently shows just 37,000 miles.
