Maybe Gooding knows more than we do? Lets hope so....I believe the 993 is the new "long hood" and near original condition cars can still be had before spending long hood restoration money. New car horse power is great, but just how fast can you really drive in today's world.
Ha, so true. I'm feeling old lately that's for sure. I'm just stunned to see your car for sale. Its a gorgeous car, classic color combo, awesome perks with the hardbacks and suspension done, wing or no wing option, overall excellent condition...and price is right! Just crazy makes no sense.
I've owned a few cool cars lately, but miss the smell of the 993, the sound when closing the door, and that Fister exhaust note on startup and at 3k RPM. Nothing beats it.

Nothing beats black, I agree. Beautiful color on the 993.

What is triple black on a coupe? I see black exterior & black interior? What am I missing? Black wheels?

Black spoiler wall. As opposed to the neon green option...

Cool thanks! It is an absolutely gorgeous car. I prefer the turbo twists myself, but your wheels are the best aftermarket I have seen on a black car. Modern take on the classic fuchs if you ask me. The right diameter and neatly balanced with the body. Well done.

Thanks! I am all registered. I have to place a absentee bid. Since its a "No Reserve" its going to sell no matter what. I gave them my price and I'm assuming now if they are just going to start there, knowing its at least going to sell for that...or...not really sure. My first auction.

Other than this car, lots of leads, but nothing I'm hot on. Hopefully I get lucky here.

Lightweight "Turbo Twists" are all packed up and being conserved.

Engine is Dry as a bone / No Leaks and Needs nothing. Underneath is so clean you could eat off it. No Rain / No Snow..always garaged. All the right tasteful mods and all original parts too. $120K and it's yours! Title "In Hand."




No sport seats... Worthless. Okay, I'll offer $50k.

Ha! My seats are probably a 9.0 out of 10 Cond. 2 times a year I clean them and soak them in the Sun and cover them with plastic for max effectiveness. Very hard for me to justify ordering Sport Seats from Vladamir. They are tempting and may order here in the near future.
