Default New To Me 993 From Calgary

Hi Everyone,

I'm late to this game but better late than never. I just purchased FabianS's 993 from Calgary and drove it back to Vancouver yesterday. Totally love the car and it performed beautifully on the drive back. Police were everywhere and felt fortunate to get only one ticket!

I want to let everyone know that FabianS from this board was an awesome person to deal with. He is a first class guy with total integrity and I wish him many more Porsches in his future!

David

Congratulations! How was the highway?

That's the third Calgary 993 that's been sold in the last 18 months.

Congrats! She is a beauty
My 97 C4S also left Victoria headed to Oregon on Saturday. Hopefully the new owner will join RL.

Thank you. Police was everywhere along the way until we got to Metro Vancouver. Roads were sandy at the high elevations. Not one rock chip so overall it was a good day for the drive.

Congrats, we were at a local PCA event yesterday and heard this was coming in!

Too bad you couldn't make it a group run back with Zeus993 (Joel), I know his C2S is waiting for him in AB too.

Congrats on the car. I talked to Fabian yesterday and he mentioned you were a great guy to deal with as well. I've driven this car on several occasions and must say you bought a really nice example. Very well taken care of and loved by a true enthusiast! Enjoy the car!

That would have been a BLAST! Congratulation on picking up Fabian's car. It looks awesome. Which route did you take back? Snow?

I'm tentatively got things booked for the mid-late May drive back. A couple of PCA guys may drive out to meet me and drive back.
