Default Porsche 993 Turbo S by Edo Competition

Not sure if I would do this to such a rare car.





from the article:
The 993 is one of the most iconic and memorable variants of Porsche 911. It is probably the only 911 that strikes the right balance between looking retro and modern, and also size-wise, it is just right. This is a range-topping 993 Turbo S model, tricked-out by Edo Competition.

15 pictures and full article

Don't think it's an "S". Just has some S (and then some) body parts

Hopefully that's a bunch of stickers.

The 2-tone color "scheme" is not to my liking, doesn't strike the right balance, not in keeping with the spirit of a 993 Turbo (S). Hope it is film and can be easily removed.

But thanks for sharing, as any 993 is worth knowing of.

You'd have to be on a months worth of Molly to have the delusional vision to even think of such a paint scheme...

(Look it up!)

Not those techart side skirts again! Ahhhhhh

Seriously though, I didn't think you could ruin a 993tt that badly. Just flat out wrong. Put down the pipe, grab the title and sell it to someone who isn't color blind. God help that car...

I don't know, it doesn't look that bad. I don't think I would do that to my car but I could imagine it if someone wanted something a little different. These cars weren't as valuable 5-10 years ago and people modify cars.
BTW, looking at the pic in the trunk, what is that container with blue stuff in the right side? opposite the brake fluid? Someone modified the wiper fluid container/relocated or does it have water injection or something exotic? Electric power steering? liquid for ball bearing turbos? looks stockish.

The plastic container with blue windshield washer fluid in it is a factory 964/993RSR/GT2 windshield washer container. I like the fact the car has no sunroof. Loosen up boys!

I have no problem with people being expressive with their cars these days. Especially with todays technologies the car is a blank canvas to those who fancy themselves an artist. I have a friend who has a Carrera GT in matte black. But the key IS and most importantly TODAYS Technologies, meaning Wraps/Films the big thing is REMOVABLE!!
On the flip side has anyone seen what happens to paint after a couple years in clear bra or wrap and in the sun? I would like to know if there is any discoloration or fading.
