Congratulations, drive your new car in good health. When I drive my 993 to work a few days a week I stop at the Starbucks in Schaumburg/Streets of Woodfield for my morning coffee. See ya round.

Welcome, and that has to be one of the best colours EVER for a 993.
Sweet looking car. Enjoy in good health.

Very nice. Now just lower it, change the wheels, tint the windows, swap the mufflers, install a rack brace, 996 the wheel, shifter and e-brake, detail the suspension, shave the bumpers..... Just kidding (kind of). Enjoy it!!!

A couple of you said he needs to lower it. From what I can see in the pics, it's already lowered. There, I just saved you some money that can go towards a ROW turbo bumper or some 18' wheels.

Congratulations! An important feature of your car has been overlooked: The basket handle improves aerodynamics and thus makes the '95 the fastest 993. Don't let anyone tell you anything different.

Gotta love the heated seat option. Wish I had that in the NE.

Maybe it's the angle of the photo, but it does look pretty low already. One thing worth checking is whether the wiring harness recall has been done. Call Porsche Cars North America and they can tell you if the work has been performed, although you'll need to fax them proof of ownership before they'll divulge that information (not sure what the big secret is...)
