Gene, It has never left my ownership

It is for sale at a high price but if it doesn't make that price I won't sell (unless I really have to). I do miss the rawness and frantic gearchanging

Honestly it is my favorite of all Porsches excluding the pure race cars.

Thanks eclou. They are Champion Motorsport RS184 19x9" with 235/35-19 and 19x12" with 315/25-19 (Michelin PS2). AFAIK, mine is the only 993 in the world with these wheels...because it takes some fitting to make them work

Too funny

I love the GT2 flares but I am not at the point where I want to tear into my pristine 30k mile silver machine.

My 18x12" track wheels have some lip

Okay, my turn with updates since the cashmere race seats went in, but with winter around the corner, no more hard driving until spring.

And agree, Toby, don't let go of your 993TT and consequently suffer seller's remorse:

These cars still look beautiful after so many years. Difficult to tell, should one keep his 993TT almost stock looking with a monster engine and suspension upgrades like Al's or Tuner1 or go with one of those great bodykits like the CTR2 or GT2/Turbo S. One thing I never liked on the stock 993TT is the front bumper, the turbo S lip makes a world of difference IMO.

Simon, you built yourself one mean looking GT2

it was worth all the pain and effort! Any of the interior?

Keep pictures coming please!

Steve,

Coming from you - that's a nice compliment! Currently running 245/35 and 305/30 but would like to move to 315 for the rear - they are a little too stretched on these rims.

Jean - now thats a compliment - THANKS! A long time coming but getting there! MOre pics when interior is finished - still waitnig on a few choice parts....

Simon.
