Random 993 picture thread

The majesty of a Reading Business park car park :)

Fantastic - I think this is my favourite 993 on this forum! When it was new I would have gone with the Turbo look spoiler but in 2014 I say great choice in removing it - my Dad always said they were better without the spoiler even back in the 90's - ahead of his time perhaps? :D

Thanks Paul... I certainly love it. It looks like you've had some lovely 993s also!
I cannot believe there was no interest in that speed yellow C4S!!
I would have it in a heartbeat. I saw one in Dorking (Surrey) exactly the same, the same day I picked up my car. I've not seen it since.

Even more shocking was that I think there was a deal to be made around the £36K mark which was a steal (this was back in '11) - as soon at it hit the tarmac on Paragon's forecourt it was £42,995 if I remember correctly and it sold instantly. I'd be surprised if this wasn't the same car you saw - can't be many of them around! It was Classic Grey inside which had nice additional touches such as yellow belts etc.

The story behind the car was that it was ordered right towards the end of 993 production (much like your own) and the body shell was destined for the Porsche museum but the order was secured on the basis that it could be used - I would love to run the Sales Manager over it again my unfortunately he left our OPC a couple of years back after nearly 20 years. It definitely was a special car!

Collecting my car post service this time last month, to find it nestled amongst a 2.7 RS and a 930T - at home with the faaaahmily!
 
And one in red, but now with Turbo S ducts and a few stone chips unfortunately I couldn't afford a 9m engine but it now has Vram.

Strip it out, weld-in cage and swap in a turbo lump if I can source one - otherwise 3.8 with ITB's :D
