A 2004 911 GT3, it was faster, more expensive and fun to drive but I love my 993 and only car I would ever trade it for is a GT3!

Variety is the spice of life, fellas! This is my 3rd Jeep, which I still own. Kinda fell into Porsche with a 944 and then my 968.

The only other "sporty car" (and I do use the term loosely) was an '89 Chrysler LeBaron convertible 4 cyl turbo that I sold in '97. After that, I was in the F-150 exclusively until early 2006 when I got the p-car. I have pics I could scan, but frankly, is it worth it?

Hey, I still had fun with the car, and I did receive compliments on it. Even made it to a cd cover, it did.

before the 993 the black SC totalled in a wreck when a drunk Harley rider hit me head on and died, before that the Saab, before that the C4S, before that the M3 with melting connecting rod bearings, before that Saab 9-5 Aero, Audi S4, A6, 4 different Alfas, bunch of japanese stuff before that.... man what I wouldn't give for the money I wasted buying new instead of finding the same cars pre-owned, or changing cars too often and taking depreciation....

Just paid of my '06 Cooper and intend to keep this 993 until they bury me in it

Here are the other vehicles I have owned before getting my 993. Actually, I don't even own a 993 yet, but it will be my next sports car.

I still don't own a 993. I couldn't ever afford one. But this was my most immediate sports car prior to my latest Porsche (#4). '68 Ghia,--fit checking Das Shield for the 997.

The bamboo beige car was #3. (1981 turbo'd 911SC)

Everything...is gone...EvEr34
Did you ever take the red custom to Sturgis? That would have been a big hit, there.
