Thumbs up NE1 know this car in Santa Cruz?

993 in Santa Cruz, CA

Hey there. First Happy Holidays to you all and your families!

I'm helping a friend find a 993. He's reluctant to buy a car he cannot put in front of him.

This one showed up on the Ebay-dar. Does anyone know this car? Looks like a great deal. Just curious.

Can't help you, but it looks like a pretty nice car, if it passes PPI.

Good to see you bouncing...er, posting again! Happy Holidays!!

hmmm. would make a nice little track car. MUST RESIST.

BTW I got a little ride in a LWF/RoW gearbox car today. It's actually very peppy. So I must say the RoW gearchange makes a very noticable difference.

I don't know this car, but I live just outside Santa Cruz and am willing to go check it out if you wish. PM me.

PeterS - Thanks for the offer.

I spoke with Tim Benson of Fastlane. He seems to know this car. It has those extras (M030, wood shifter, Motorsound package, July' S03s) along with full brake service and wiring harness complete so it seems like a good deal.

Hopefully my friend will buy it. Otherwise icerbofh's jedi mind trick is starting to work.

One other thought. Funny how...one man's track car is another man's garage queen.
