Default My first p-car...and it's a 993

After lurking on this board for a couple months, I finally pulled the trigger and bought ARM993's 1995 midnight blue C4. I couldn't have asked to buy from nicer people. Finally got the car washed and waxed so here are some pics with the chauffeur.

Looking forward to being part of the RL community.

Nice car! I would like a 993 C4 as my first P-Car too once I sell my current driver.

I'm in Kirkwood, soon moving to West County.

993s are few and far between around here.
Gordo, is yours the Speed Yellow with black twists and cage? I've seen your car at the PCA events at Gateway.

Congratulations. I wish I had a 993 when I was your age. Aren't you too young to be driving?

Congrats and welcome to RL ... this is a great place ... and your car is VERY nice looking.

You coulda done much worse than to have a 993 as your first P-car.

My patients ask me the same thing about work. I just tell them I'm taking the day off from school and covering for my dad.

Since I have everyone's attention for a short while, any tips on fixing the front power lifter on the sport seats? My search only gets fixing the shaft for the fore/aft adjustment on the 8way seat.

Nice car and welcome to RL. The seat problem may be inside the switch. The contacts may be dirty. It is very easy to fix but near impossible to get the switch back together.
