Hi, guys,
Just bought one of the first batch 1994 993s last week. Its last and only owner is the Chairman of a pharmaceutical company who rarely drove the car and put only 33,000 miles on it in 13 years. So everything on the car is still neat and tight.
After I tested the car last month, I noted its chassis number and license plate number and called our local (Taiwan) Porsche to check their service records on it. Findings follow:
* The last service was performed in winter, 2005, at 30,000 miles.
* The car has never been in any accident--never been fixed of its body, never been fixed of its bottom or anything.
I would be very grateful if any of you would teach me what things to do on this newly bought 993.

Congratulations! Sounds like a really low mileage example. Did you take it to a mechanic to have it checked out?
Cheers,
Mike

Thanks a lot, Mike. I just paid the dealer and have to wait a few days for the new license plate. Before that, I cannot legally drive the car on the road. I will surely pay our local Porsche a visit, first thing upon receipt of the license plate.
