Some track machines are built to win. This 1996 Porsche 911 Supercup was built to roar, an uncompromising race car stripped of comfort and stuffed with firepower.
Supercup Identity: Born to Race
Only 216 Supercup models were produced from 1994 to 1997, this example, chassis 398100, began life in Brazil, ran Monaco, and later joined the PCA scene in the US. Finished in eye-popping yellow, it carries racing provenance with an aluminum hood, Turnwald rear wing, and plexiglass quarter windows.
Racing Hardware, No Compromise
The 3.8L M64/70 flat-six sits at the heart of this machine, factory-rated at 315 horsepower. Dry-sump lubrication, twin-spark ignition, and Bosch Motronic management keep it responsive under pressure. Power is routed through a G50/30 six-speed manual transaxle with limited-slip differential, pure mechanical connection.
Race-Spec Details
Speedline Supercup 18″ wheels with magnesium centers and aluminum barrels hold Michelin slicks. The ride height sits 70mm lower than a 993 road car. Four-piston calipers over cross-drilled rotors offer balanced control at speed, backed by ABS and a front strut brace.
Built for Safety and Focus
Inside the cockpit: black Recaro fixed-back bucket seats, Sabelt multi-point harnesses, and a Matter roll cage with door bars. You’ll find a fire-suppression system, RS-style pull straps, wood floor panel, and a MOMO wheel that centers around race-read gauges.
History & Usage
After light competition in Brazil and Monaco, the car landed stateside and was raced in PCA events before its acquisition in the early 2020s. It is not titled or street legal. Service records accompany the sale, with bodywork repairs documented in 2010 and 2014.
Summary
Track-focused, rare, and unapologetically raw, the 1996 Porsche 911 Supercup isn’t just a car, it’s a racing relic. Whether for vintage motorsport or collection pride, few machines offer this level of authenticity.
Disclaimer:This vehicle is not street-legal. Buyers should verify current condition, eligibility for motorsport entry, and service history.
