Default Ok so i'm new....
I've been lurking on here for quite a while now and only recently registered. Through all the lurking i was able to figure exactly what I wanted but kept putting off constantly finding an excuse not to buy the one car I have wanted for so long. Finally decided to go ahead and make the jump so the searching began. Couple weeks ago I stumbled on what is in my opinion a perfect example of what I was looking for. Held off a little in posting my first post as I wanted to make sure the car was going to make to my front door. Well, shipper just called and by noon tomorrow this little baby will be sitting in my driveway.

Anyways I hope to be able to participate more than I have been, though that should be easier now that I actually have a 993.

I know I know...it will be my first mod. I really wanted an untouched car so I could have the original parts.

Once you take off those old, tired Monroe shocks, all you'll wanna do is throw them out anyway.

Beautiful car! Welcome to the board and the slippery slope. Is it a manual or Tip transmission?

When you say MINT you are not kidding. That thing looks right out of a showroom. Great find!

Congrats on a beautiful car. I've seen it in person several times. Are you in Vancouver?

Nice looking ride. Was that the car at Weissach (looks like it in the license plate) in Vancouver?
