Ken:

I've got a nicely optioned '95 cab that I either need to drive more often, or send to a better home. I'm learning that I can't just leave it in the stable. This is an awesome daily driver; runs stong and looks good. Factory Motorsound package makes it sound good without attracting undue attention.

The Good Details: Grand Prix White with Midnight Blue supple leather interior, new OEM Midnight Blue top (see my avatar) . All stock or original throughout, except for Bilstein HD shocks installed last year. The optional 17" Cup wheels are painted to match and have the color crest. (17 sounds small today but at the time the 16's were standard.) 6-speed, factory LSD, motorsound, 8-way seats w/ full leather, Hi-Fi sound package, CD changer, leather "bat-phone" console. Everything works and looks good.

The Bad Details: It needs a professional detail as the sun has taken its toll on the factory paint. Rock dings and parking lot dings and scrapes are evident upon close inspection. I think some enthusiasm and good wax will work wonders. This car has over 100,000 miles (mostly highway, I swear) on it and runs and drives like a Porsche. But hey, it was built in the spring of 1994 as one of the first 993's for the US Market. Who knows what will go wrong with a car that's nearly 15-years old? It has had the wiring harness replaced under recall, as well as the cab top fix and both have been trouble free.

I'm thinking the car is worth $25 to $30K and would make a fine daily driver. Now, how can I get you to Florida to check it out?

Well, I can say I would go as far as Santa Rosa.............the outpost 60 miles north of me. I'm finding the Bay Area is full of dreamers though. Alas, Florida IS too far to consider a driver-type car.

For those of you following along, 3 weeks now driving the C4S. I cannot believe how filthy the thing was before I washed it a little while ago. These things really don't make any sense as a daily car, but hell why not?

Thanks! I acutally saw that on my daily scan through. No mileage listed, but my expectations aren't high. I think after the last couple of days, convertible weather is over.........

At least on your side of the bay you had a summer! It's been hot one day and cold the next out here, no good for my allergies.

I emailed the seller just to see and it has 110k on it.

It wasn't hot enough to impact drink sales and make a purchase like this a sorta freebie!

Oh, and you want the poster boy for the "I'll find a clueless sucker, somewhere, somehow"........this one has been for sale since I think before 993's even existed:
