Default 944S --> 993C4 (wtb)

Well, just took a big jump in income, so I want to "re-enforce" my good work with the purchase of a 1995 993C4 (ideally).

Any tips on where best to look? Not too many out there where I have been looking.

Big jumps in income are always nice! I put this together when I was looking: www.rallystuff.com/pcar_sources.html

Having jumped from a 944S to a 993 I can say you are making a great choice. I loved my 944S, but the 993 is another world. You will love it!

Well that ought to about cover it, eh RallyJon? Many thanks.

Marv - I still love the S. Right now I am planning to keep it since I'll never get what it's worth to me - just need a strategy to run it every other week or so.

Well, you could make me an offer if you don't mind the mileage and the stone chips. I'm sure there's a 993TT or 996TT out there that would fill the spot in my garage.

Nice low mileage 95 c4 on ebay.

No affiliation.

It took me 18 months to find my car. I was set on a c4 and a 95 in a certain color combo with low miles, well maintained. I probably spent 1500 on ppi's over the course of that time. FUN!

I just sold my E55, so temporarily putting the 944S into daily service. I would love a 993 C4 too (I want AWD again). But not sure if it's ideal daily driver up north with most being 10+ years old now.

Im going to take my time as I am dreaming about a 996 and Cayman too!

See my post: https://rennlist.com/forums/993-forum/428879-finally-got-a-993-a.html

Love my 968, but the 993 is really something special.
