Wheels / Tires
The car will come with buyer’s choice of ONE of the following:
18” Tech Wheels original to the car w/ original S02’s mounted (toast).
18” Tech Wheels finished dark grey w/BFG KDW2’s (90%)

History:
I am the second owner. I purchased the car from Hunting Ridge Motorsports in CT in 2005.
All service history since day one with invoice copies.
Original window sticker
Books, tools, keys, spare DME, compressor and even the clear plastic gloves to change a flat tire

Condition:
You would be hard-pressed to find a better example. A conservative 9/10 exterior and a 9.5/10 inside. No accidents, paintwork or stories. Will require struts for bonnet and engine cover soon. Otherwise no issues. I am a very particular owner and this car reflects that. Always stored in a heated garage with proper winter protocol.

Motivation:
This is NOT a fire sale nor an act of desperation. I love the 993 and this example in particular. I am looking to purchase a GT3. The Canada US exchange is favorable to sell this back into the US (or EU) market.

Sincere inquiries only please.

Thanks for looking.

Bob

Just a note on this - the question came up as to whether there were any Canadian taxes on export applicable on a US export. Happy to say there are not but you should check on your State / Fed rules.
Regards,
Bob

Thanks - it's goes well with the cashmere. I find that it's difficult to describe the color to someone that hasn't seen it - it can change from a deep blue to having some real metallic hues depending on light conditions.
Cheers,
Bob

Rob - how are you mate!

I don't know if I mentioned it to you, but between tickets from the local constabulary and comments from my wife and neighbors, I opted to switch them out for Robin's RSR's. I had a real hard time sneaking out of the garage on a Sunday morning.

Personally, I loved them. Not only for the sound but they also keep you honest about being smooth with the driving - you hear every nuance.

Hope all is well with you. Cheers,

NO!!! Beautiful car Bob, sad to see it go. I do understand your desire for a GT3 though. Which Gen., 996MK2, 997MK1, or 997MK2? I'm still looking for the right 996GT3 to find me but with our Canadian dollar doing it's best to imitate a Peso, that's a tough market to figure out at the moment. Good luck with the sale!

Thanks Tim. Yes, it's a strange market to say the least. I'm looking to get into a 997MK2. Hope all is well on the Left Coast.
Cheers,
Bob
