Default 1997 C2 - "Over Toyed"

Hello all, I'm 'over toyed', but not 'over joyed' that I've decided to find a new home for "Tuscan", my Speed Yellow 1997 993. With 28k on the odometer, Bilstein PSS9 suspension, front/rear sways, Sport Classic II wheels/ fresh Michelins......perfect paint, always garaged, full leather, power seats, 6CD changer, dual air bags, etc.....6 speed(my bride bought the 'S' for the car after I added all the suspension components because it handles better than a factory S (she rides a 02 Duc Monster 900...so she understands ride and feel))......I'm selling because the Ducati fever has bitten severly, racing is spendy, and I still get to drive the Boxter (1997 Speed Yellow) and the 955 S is pretty fun too! I am blessed to have owned 'Tuscan'....and want her to find a good home.....Car meticulously maintained by Motorsports Northwest (Marshall 'Red' Jones - Former PCA Member of the Year) in Boise, ID. If you have an interest, and are serious, call (208)794-7883....or private e-mail me for details. Thanks for taking the time to look.

Beautiful! One of the rare post-1995 speed yellow cars. How much are you asking? It'll go quick.

That doesn't look like Speed Yellow. But it's definitely not the Pastel Yellow, it's sort of in between the two. The avatar for Eric is the SY I'm accustomed to seeing.

Indeed rare as the only SY 993's I've seen are tipotronics for some reason.

I think it's the lighting my avatar pic was taken when cloudy; his are in the sun.

Also- SY 993's are pretty common for 1995, but then they started charging extra in 1996, so you don't see as many from then on. So I shouldn't call them "rare" but just not as common after 1995.

Dr. No,,,,, yes, it was listed on e-bay, reserve not met, buyer negotiated with seller....seller bought at 993 TT in reliance on buyer, buyer backed out ......I 'ran into the car' through my P-Car mech....the day it was going to be relisted.......

blk on blk....thanks for the thought..... it truly is a very nice ride.....
