The early 1990s saw Porsche refining its line-up amid changing regulations and evolving driver tastes, so the 1993 roster reflects both continuity and updates to engineering and trim. Enthusiasts and buyers from that era remember a mix of air- and water-cooled engines and models that bridged classic driving feel with modern comforts.
There are 11 1993 Porsche Car Models, ranging from 911 Carrera (964) Coupe to 968 Coupe. For each entry you’ll find below the Body style, Engine (L / kW), and Production (units) to make comparisons straightforward — from performance figures to how many were made, you’ll find below.
Which 1993 Porsche model is most practical for everyday use?
The 968 Coupe is generally considered the most practical daily driver from 1993 thanks to its front-engine layout, balanced handling, and usable trunk space; it offers a good mix of comfort and performance without the maintenance quirks of the older 911 air-cooled cars.
How should I use the Body style, Engine (L / kW), Production (units) columns when comparing models?
Use Body style to compare usability (coupe vs. cabriolet), Engine (L / kW) to gauge power and tuning potential, and Production (units) to assess rarity — together they give a quick snapshot of performance, practicality, and collectibility.

Images and Descriptions
911 Carrera (964) Coupe
Classic 964-generation Carrera coupe with an air-cooled 3.6‑litre flat-six; in 1993 it continued as Porsche’s bread-and-butter 911 with comfortable refinement, good parts availability and strong collector interest for low-mile examples.
911 Carrera Cabriolet (964)
Factory cabriolet introduced earlier in the 964 run and sold in 1993; offers open-top air‑cooled 911 driving, solid daily usability, and rising desirability among collectors, especially well-kept original examples.
911 Carrera Targa (964)
The 964 Targa pairs classic 911 styling with a removable roof panel and the familiar 3.6‑litre flat‑six; in 1993 it remained a niche but desirable choice for buyers who wanted semi‑open touring.
911 Carrera 4 (964) Coupe
All‑wheel‑drive Carrera 4 offered the same 3.6‑litre engine with improved wet‑weather grip; 1993 cars are practical, retain many 964 upgrades, and are valued for year‑round usability and stability improvements.
911 Turbo (964)
The 964 Turbo (3.3) was Porsche’s high‑performance flagship available in 1993 with turbocharging and upgraded brakes/suspension; prized by collectors for strong performance and as a last-of‑its‑kind 964 Turbo character.
911 Speedster (964)
