it's a coupe, I'm not much into cabs and I already had a Z3 when I got this
be forewarned if you look at the cabs... the top seals are at that age where most need replacing and they are mucho $$$$

geeze, thats good info to know, thanks! I remember replacing the top & components on our 1990 911 cab wasn't cheap either, but I don't recall having to do the seals. Of course, that was probably 10 years ago & the seals most likely weren't old enough to need replacing.

Aah, this talk about 968's reminds me of my mint iris blue '94 968 6-speed coupe. It was only 4 years old at the time and had 52k miles. What a car it was. It sparkled so much in the sun, it almost looked like a cartoon. It's too bad I don't have any higher resolution pics than the ones below.

Thats a great looking 968 indeed! Heres a couple of pics of a sister '95 968 cab with the same color combo & get this, the car was in North Carolina too. I remember talking to the owner, who worked at a dealer of some sorts.

LowMiles just thinks he can come barging in here like Yosemite Sam and order us around.

Now he owes us each $1,000 just so we don't ban him from here for life and flatten his tires at all car rallies.

Make it $2,000 a person and we'll try to find you a car for under $200,000.

Rixter,

Off topic, but when are you going to crunch the numbers on the '93 GTS's?

I see they are posted for the '94s and '95s on 928registry.com

How are you Tim? Long time....

This is NOT Todd. While he passed on two nice 928s that I know of he did buy a 944 from a fellow list member.

The ball is in my court on this one. Rixter gave me the info and I just haven't had the time to go through it yet.
