Default For Sale: 1995 Carrera Coupe $26,500 obo SOLD

Due to an upcoming move I am selling my 1995 993 Carrera. I have frequented this board for years and have benefited greatly from the knowledge of its members. I searched the country for months looking for the right car, and it paid off with a trouble free, 100% reliable car. I have moved several times and have always had the car professionally shipped in an enclosed trailer. After several deployments to Iraq, my priorities have changed a bit and I need to move on.

Since I have owned the car I have driven it only 12,000 miles, and have meticulously maintained it just as it has been its entire life. It does not drip oil and oil consumption is nearly non-existent. It has never been tracked or auto-crossed. The previous owner had the front end re-sprayed at the dealer when he purchased it as a certified pre-owned car. I am the third owner of the car. Everything functions as it should.

The car has been completely documented from day one, and all records will go with the car. All of the original keys (even the dealer tags) and pamphlets and other memorabilia will be included.

Since I have had the car I upgraded the suspension to the popular ROW M030/ Bilstein HD set-up. The car has been properly aligned and corner balanced. I also had the mufflers upgraded by Darin (FisterD on Rennlist) and added the sport exhaust tips. I installed 18” Turbo Twist wheels that have relatively new Sumitumo tires. The proper steering rack brace was also installed. All upgrades are extremely clean and tasteful. The car is in perfect working order and is ready to go without the typical maintenance issues usually associated with a used car. The car speaks for itself, and the Porsche enthusiast will certainly appreciate it. The car is currently in Carlsbad, CA. Of course, PPIs are welcome and I will assist with shipping as required.

Here’s the details:

Thanks Jeff! It breaks my heart to sell my dream car, but I need to focus on family time. Perhaps I can find another when the kids are older...

That is a smoking deal. I wouldn't take a penny less than the $26.5k asking price, seriously.

Wow, very nicely priced!

If I offered you your asking price, you would have to kindly ignore me since I would be low balling you

Seriously, this appears to be a nice car at a great price!

Thanks for the compliments gentlemen. It is fairly priced. Rather than ship it back across the country, I can offer the car for a little less than I normally would.

Chris should never be ignored....not even kindly!

Beautiful car! Great color combo, nicely upgraded, and a very reasonable price. Someone is going to get a honey of a 993! Best of luck with the sale.
