Congratulations! Pics? When You say full leather, how full do You mean? Leather dash board, door panels and seat backs? Som 993s have every single pice of the interior overed in leather down to the last button!
And when You say silver, do You mean Polar Silver?

The upper dash, seat backs, rear seats (if you can call them that lol) and doors are leather. As for the silver.... I'm not positive. It isn't the blueish silver, it appears to be the cleaner silver for lack of a better way to describe it. I do have a list of all the option codes but I can't seem to find the exterior color code. I'm wondering if I can reach out to Porsche and have a duplicate window sticker generated from the VIN?

What the hell.... Guys, you can see the car at Grandprixclassics.com. I wanted to swap out the wheels before showing it because I think it really needs the larger cup wheels. If anyone knows which silver it is please let me know.
Mark Leonard is a really good guy. I get the feeling he deals in much more expensive stuff than the car I purchased from him.

Car looks great! Congrats on the purchase, and I agree drive it home. I bought mine with 87k and stressed about adding miles until I crossed the 100k mark, since then the miles have been more enjoyable, now at 146k. Also look up some of the road trips folks have documented here on their fly out and drive home experiences, really cool stuff. Again, congrats!

Welcome! The harder you drive the car, the better it feels.

Eight years ago timothymoffat post the following......
MY95-96, Polar Silver was the "normal" silver (still an upcharge for metallic paint).
MY97-98, Arctic Silver replaced Polar as the "normal" silver (again, still an upcharge for metallic), while Polar moved to the "special paint" (NOT paint to sample.....that's a whole other story) category complete with a "special" (EXPENSIVE) price.
1. You will not see an Arctic Silver MY95-96 993.
2. You will see Polar Silver on all model year 993s, just quite rare on the 97-98s.
And, from another post here are the two silvers side by side.....

Congrats on finding such an immaculate car. It definitely looks like Polar Silver which is a great color on the 993. Full leather is a very rare option on these cars and really looks great. I love my Polar Silver ‘95 and will be sad when I sell it. I need to let her go as I’ve found a new fling; a one owner ‘98 S in Arena Red. Enjoy the car in good health. Perhaps come out in May to pick her up and hit Luft 6 on May 11 in LA.

I thought your car sounded familiar...I saw it and sent it to a friend in early January.
You're going to love it!
