Forget everything else (conversions and S treatments) just based on how low this car's milage alone makes this car a "Very Good Buy!"
DANG! And this was in west coast?? Congrates...

The rear bumper of a WB/Turbo is also slightly different then a NB...it's a very small difference and most people would not notice it unless they were specifically looking.

Great looking car IMHO

Ok, now I need everyone's advice.

I will replacing the wheels soon, but was given some advice about making ay changes to the car. I personally like the 993tt wing and the turbo s frt lip, which I have, both OEM. I was told not to add those to it. I know this is a personal thing, but what do you guys think? Leave it alone, it does look cool, especially since it's lowered or add the aero?

Thanks for the help.

Jim,


Love that car. great find. If you end up adding the TS tail. I'd buy the split grill from you. Seriously.

I would leave the front end as is. looks great.

The wheels....chrome got to go.

congrats Jim. That sounds like an awesome deal. I would leave especially the rear wing off the car. The wide butt is a beauty by itself and since its a unique car anyway I think its a good showcase as it is.
I agree though with everyone that the bling chrome got to go

Leave it alone. Looks stunning as it is. Are you buying my wheels/tires? Make me an offer I can't refuse. My new wheels await installation...

Description
In 1998, Beverly Hill Porsche had 5 993 Cabriolets delivered and the dealership converted these 5 into wide bodies. These cars were sold as the only 5 C2S cabs every delivered in the USA. I searched 4 years to find mine and now I am thinking of selling it.

The car is Glacier White with supple Cashmere electric seats with embossed headrest crests, am/fm cassette with remote CD changer, aluminum door sills with Carrera S script, Carrera S script in tach, rear turbo wing, front turbo S spoiler with brake vents, hollow spoke turbo wheels, red calipers, and best of all only 13K miles. This car is in perfect shape. I am only thinking of selling it because I am starting a new business. It will be missed. I am asking $77K.
