If it's the car spec you like, buy it for yourself...don't buy it for the next guy.

Deposit paid...collect next week....96 4S Arena Red, G64/21 trans, Black Hardbacks, 65K Miles, new tires last year.

Gembella boxes and tail pipes - great sound without stifling conversation.

I've not seen too many 993 in arena red & the black interior really sets it off.

Owner getting the a/c charged & car serviced prior to collection.

4 hour initial run once collected - should I rest the car occasionally?

Rest the car? That's not a thing.

Beautiful example. Enjoy! Arena Red is the best color on these cars.

Default RoW front fender blinker lights ??

Hey Jersey993,
Congratulations! .. Locating a top-tier 993 coupe isn't so easy ... finished in a gorgeous Arena Red Metallic to boot. Question; The coupes build sheet, what is the option code for the RoW front fender-mounted blinker lights?

A few VW GTIs ago, each one had RoW fender blinkers installed at the NJ V'dub dealership. .. The RoW blinker additions were useful when in the City or crossing the GWB.. Those were the days.....

Congratulations. Have you selected a service shop? .. In northern NJ there must be plenty to choose from. .. Cheers,

The previous owner made some OEM+ alterations, namely Gemballa sports exhaust, Turbo rear deck, K&N air filter, 3 spoke Boxster steering wheel & Turbo front air ducts.
On the whole these are in my opinion tasteful alterations & enhance the original look.
The original Porsche parts have not been kept.
Should I be concerned over the absence of these original parts?
Although I like the OEM+ bits, if I do sell later would the value be affected if it couldn't be returned to factory stock?
Look forward to your thoughts.
Is that a photo of my 993 in your profile picture? Flattering.
