Default New owner Porsche 993 Aventurine, Chestnut Brown

Hi All,
First of all thank you to all of you who make this site so informative and helpful.
Thanks to all of you I am the proud first owner of a 1995 Porsche 993 Cab. It took me about a year to find a car I could afford and I am please to join your circle and introduce it to you.
So here is my 993 Aventurine Cab, with Chestnut Brown interior and top and a bunch of factory options ordered through the special program. I now that some of you won't be big fans of the root wood but I like it and I think that's what matters furthermore I think it blends very well with the Chestnut Brown interior. I purchased it from a one owner in Ohio, 37K miles and had the PPI and some work done by Steinel's Autowerks (which by the way are the best!!) got it shipped to Massachusetts where I reside. Let me know what you think and thank you all again!

Yes, the rootwood interior touches aren't for everyone, but it's a very unique color combo and interesting for sure!

Congrats on such a rare combo and enjoy your car in good heath!

enjoy.

Very cool and unique color combo. Congrats and welcome to the Adventurine. The floor mat color look off, are they original?

Unfortunately it is the only thing that is not original on the car, based on the option list, they should be Chestnut Brown mats, now I am on the lookout for some . Thanks for the nice comment!

There is a guy on here/flebay that is parting out a car with chestnut brown interior. He's got the seats for sale. Worth tracking him down to see if he has the mats. At the very least, swap some black mats in.

Otherwise, congrats and welcome!

I just like the uniqueness of it all !!

Nice acquisition, and it's yours without modifying it into yours!
Congratulations!

It looks great! Welcome to Rennlist.
Black mats would look nice in there as well.
I too own a very unique cabrio.
You should bring yours to the show I'm hosting in October. (insert shameless plug). The entry list is quite nice and we are hiring a police detail.



Regards,

.
