Porsche 1996 993 Turbo, Polar Silver, Flamenco Red Interior US$104,500K

Moving on to a .2 GT3 RS! 71k miles. Price is with stock turbo twists. Both seats reupholstered 2 years ago in full leather. 19” genuine RUF rims, excellent condition with low mileage on tires, also available for $3K. I consider this car to be cosmetically very clean and a solid, up to date driver’s car. Tracked for two days for Driver’s Ed. No accident history - CarProof attached. Car located in Vancouver.

Genuine enquiries and PPI’s welcomed.

I acquired the car from a private seller in Houston in mid 2010 with 53k miles on it which might ease the reimportation process.

The bad:
• slight lower valve cover gasket leak, driver’s side (1 drop on floor approx every few weeks). Will be addressed in the next week or so by Mike J.
• body shop reports that some panels have been repainted on the car – no history on this. Mike J and I have been under this car dozens of times and have not seen any evidence of accident damage.

I have performed the maintenance on this car with Mark for the last few years - the car is a great example and Mark is both **** about keeping the car in top shape, and a straight shooter. Hopefully it goes to another Rennlister!

Cheers,

Mike

Seen this car in person several times. Beautiful car.

Radically beautiful, just amazing! Silver over red is SO classic.

Wow - great, great looking and stellar records/maintenance. Really stunning "driver". Car looks lowered or is it the 19" wheels? Upgraded suspension? GLWS!

hillsdonsmith

Thanks for the positive feedback everyone. Car is on Bilstein HD's and is slightly lowered at the front as the normal, slightly nose high stance of these cars wasn't suiting me aesthetically .

RUF's are 19".

I could look at that aerial shot of your interior all damn day.

hillsdonsmith

Yup, which is why everyone should think twice about pursuing their sunroof delete aspirations, LOL.

PERFECT color combo!
