Designated as an official launch car by Porsche, this 2001 911 Turbo was delivered new to Le Mans racer Jack Griffin in April 2000 and remains in exceptional condition with just 39,561 miles. Finished in Arctic Silver over a full Black leather interior, it was ordered with Supple Leather, xenon headlights, heated and power-adjustable Comfort Seats, and a rear wiper, among other factory options.
Although the car was allocated and delivered to Jack Griffin—who received early allocations due to his racing history with Porsche—it was never registered in his name, and instead went directly into long-term enthusiast ownership in California. As a result, the CARFAX shows a single registered owner. According to the seller, this is believed to be one of the first 25 996 Turbos produced for the U.S. market.
This example has lived its entire life in California under that same enthusiast ownership and includes a clean CARFAX with no accidents or damage reported. Its service history is extensive, with 14 documented records including recent work in March 2025 and regular visits to Porsche Stevens Creek and BR Racing. The car has always been garage-kept, responsibly driven, and never tracked or abused, according to the longtime owner.
Offered with both keys, original manuals, a clean California title, and a rare original delivery letter from Porsche Cars North America to Jack Griffin, this launch-spec 996 Turbo represents a collector-grade example of one of the most usable and reliable analog-era 911 Turbos.
