Wow car looks amazingly clean like others have stated, congrats!

+1 on the newer cars lacking soul at least the non GT versions, you'll have to drive them all to experience the difference.

I believe the deal went south and he picked up a 993tt instead.
I would have persued the 3.6.

The 3.6 and 993TT are such great cars that choosing between them is next to impossible...good luck with the 993!

Here's the car on our site:

and the pictures of the car's rebuild:

For the curious, the ask on the car is $104,990. Yes, it's up there BUT there are absolutely zero needs. Fresh top end, fresh brakes, etc. This was a nearly perfect car to begin with, and we went overboard.

A top end rebuild at 30k miles? What on earth would case that?

faulty exhaust guides--two were so bad that the valves wouldn't seal.

We have a '91 turbo torn apart that has 26-28k miles on it, and it has similar issues, plus a broken head stud.

The 3.6 was from out west and the '91 is from FL--it's not like these were midwest cars drowning in salt. We were, obviously, unpleasantly surprised to see the issues...we paid up for low mile cars and didn't anticipate the problems.

After seeing the price on the 94; I would hate to see the price on the 91. The 94 is gorgeous though.

I bet its hard to decide between a 964 and 993; they both look great. I kind of like the look of the 964 more though. I want metal guru's car, I love the color and look!
