i have too look at all my documents and find it when i get home. If i remember correctly it sold for either 181 or 186K. Thats what i have stuck in my head. I've been trying to keep track of the Turbo cars. I want to create a webpage with info on all of them (location, color, options, vin, model year, etc). Just havnt put much effort into it yet. The Yellow RS sold on Ebay (buy it now option for 75K) last time i saw it up for sale. With the prices these cars are selling for now, the car will easily fetch more then double that today.

Bubbles came with a ton of spare parts, (including body panels, a spare tranny, etc) the current owner pawned off all the extras however. Its located in the U.K. if i'm not mistaken.

Does anyone have a list of all the colors they left the factory with?

To be honest, some of things that have been done to this car would be a big turn off. I don't like the cage at all and looks like this things are raced/tracked. Don't like the additional opening in the front bumper cover either.
It is ridiculous what people are asking for these cars. I see them dropping in price soon.
Oh yeah, the exhaust doesn't look original either.

I found that additional front bumper opening unusual and after a while it started to look like a bracket to hold a long Euro type license plate?

Fox944

There is no additional opening in the front bumper, what you see there is a license plate bracket.

I don't mind the cage personally. And i don't mind if its been tracked.(granted the cars been maintained properly, and this one looks to be) I'd rather see cars driven and used the way they were meant to be then sitting in a garage collecting dust.

I'm sorry but these prices are absolutely absurd. Thanks, but no thanks for that kind of money...

Miles968

I am pretty sure I know where you can get a great looking Replica for about half that price, lol

I saw this car twice this year and I like it very much.
I find the IC hood extractor to look better than the factory TRS unit as it is perfectly integrated into the hood.
The pictures don't do justice to the colour. It is not just flat orange, it has hints ot red and really glows under the sun.

Of the four factory 968TS I have seen so far it is the only one I reasonably see myself owning and driving

The dark blue one was for sale last year here in the UK. It was up for £50,000.
Im pretty sure the one pictured is one + the same car....

Not sure where "bubbles" is now.
I know it was in the UK.. But its seems to have "gone to ground"...

Nice car indeed, I think the price is pretty reasonable, guess it is what you are used to, but it is only about what we pay for 993tt, and it is a very rare thing.
I'm surprised by the door trim panels, everything else is CS style, but club sports usually have the 944 style door trim.

Also, it has an airbag steering wheel instead of the CS steering wheel.

So did the yellow press car in 93 which puzzled me also. Good catch on the door panels too.

Thom

Some came with the three spoke steering wheel, others with the airbag steering wheel, some came with CS bucket seats, other with comfort seats...
There are at least three cars fitted with the Matter half cage, including this orange example.

Does anyone have a better pic of the rear seating area? The area looks the same on both the cars posted, but different from the usual CS rear seat delete.
