Oh, wow. I looked at this car this summer when it was at a local shop because I was told the owner might be interested in selling it. Owner decided to keep it.

It was pretty scruffy and scratched up on the outside. You can see on the rear window how the trim is hanging off. It was like that when I looked at it, not from the accident. Sad to see this happen to it.

Hi Steven,
Just because it's not fixable doesn't mean someone won't do it anyway. This is why we have the phrase "Buyer beware!"
I wonder if we should create a sticky list of wrecked 993 with VIN if available to our group as a warning to others. The VIN would come up in Google Searches.
Andy ;-)

Hello. You wonder what is going on with this 993.
I bought it for professional rebuildig. each damaged component has been removed and replaced with a new one bought from a Porsche dealer. The exception is the bumper and the left fender, which are currently unavailable in Europe. The interior was dismantled and finished as in 993 project gold,
but in classic gray. Seats have been put into regeneration. The entire car will be repainted in its original color. I could write if I had any questions.

Regards
