To all,

I was browsing the PCA classifieds and came upom this.

"Own a piece of Porsche history!Ludwig Heimrath's winning 968 is now available. New engine with many trick(and secret) parts.Everything has been freshened,with new paint too. Turnkey, and ready to race in 2004.Turns 1:32 at Mosport."

$43,500U.S.

Year: 1993

If I had the funds this would probably be my choice for a turbocharged 968.

Ricardo, even though I agree with you as I own a Heimrath special, there is nothing that denotes it to be a turbo. It could very well be a NA that has had extensive mods done to it to make it track worthy.
If that is the case, that is a very expensive NA but if its a turbo, the price seems right considering I know how they do it. They do a marvelous job and leave nothing unturned.
I love the color combo and want to build either a silver or a speed yellow turbo coupe one day. Maybe in another 2-3 yrs, I will have the funds to find a good donor car.

Raj,

You are right about the fact that they didn't mention the word TURBO.

I think that whoever is in the market for a 968 Turbo should check the details with the seller, since we all know the quality of Ludwig's 968 Turbos

Hahaha, not sure we all know, lol.
I think it was one of the smartest moves I made. Did not know at the time, but now when I look back at how much it cost me. I have spent a bit of money on top after that but can't complain. The car ran as it was. I just want it a certain way.
Interestingly, the car is sitting in the same parking garage my car sat in. They have some very exotic cars in that lot.
