You've owned your 993 since new? Awesome.

1981 SC Coupe, Chiffon White, tan interior, 150k before meeting an untimely demise. Thankfully replaced by 1997 993 acquired from a fellow Rennlister, which has been outstanding.

87 Targa, should not have sold it, more fun to drive than the 993 on the street. "it's more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow" heard that somewhere and it applies. I will say the 993 is more fun on the track.

'03 RSX Type-S. Had everything done to it, including a race pulley supercharger. 280HP tuned on stock fuel injectors. The only set of Bilstein coilovers. 18" Volk CE28Ns. I parted the car out thinking I was moving to Australia. Funny how the day I sold the last part I found out the job fell through. So the 993 came about 2 weeks later.

One of the first 1,000 912's ever made! It had 245,000 miles with only one engine rebuild when I sold it. Great first p-car!
