Has anyone seen a 96 993 cab widebody? I am trying to order parts and do not know if I have a wide or narrow body. Is there a code on the car that will identify what it is? Any help would be great.

You have a narrow body

FisterD

Narrow is a relative term... it's still fat, just not AS fat as a WB.

They did not make a wide body cab

in full scale production. Although there are a couple special order ones floating around.

But a wide body Speedster!

Over the years, there were a couple of threads on those special orders.

As I recall, one was in the far east.

Thank you for your help, I now know that I have a narrow body cab.

As Arena993 knows, we weren't correcting him, but rather just adding to his post.

There were some built by the factory: a dark green Speedster equipped with Tiptronic S and 17 inch wheels for Ferdinand Alexander Porsche (his 60th anniversary) in 1995 and another wide-body, silver Speedster with manual transmission and 18 inch wheels for a Jerry Seinfeld in 1998. A third unit, a converted 964 Speedster, had been built in 1994 by the factory for a Belgian customer.

Does anyone have any more pix of Seinfeld's Speedster? Other than the front shot with the ropes around it.

I was passed by a black/tan wide body cab last Sunday north of Dover, DE on Rt 1. It had a Carrera S badge on the tail. It certainly caught my eye!!

You and every other 993 cab owner. Hey Scott, those are not wide body cabs, they have their tops on - guess that makes them coupes. Don't bother showing us the cab version though.
