Hey, stud, take it easy on those of us without Arena Red widebodies, like you! Color me envious.

FWIW, I'm answering an e-mail from a RLer right now about WB cabs, & just stumbled on these 2007 RL photos.
From VHanzon's "WB cab pics and speedline wheel Q.." thread...

Uber 911-- Good eye. Thanks for the link: Porsche Speedster 993 Turbolook. ~$108k USD at today's conversion rate.
It's the normally-aspirated one, of the two Speedsters I flew to look at in Europe, & that RLer J.A.W.S. saw many times where he worked.
IIRC, the owner told me it may have had front-end damage before its conversion.

Photos & details on page two of the "Cabriolet in wide body?" thread that Cabrio993 posted earlier.

Higher-resolution photos from my trip are featured on pages 10-14 of the "Speedster type 993 photo thread."

FS for €74k in Jan '07; see RLer 964Polar's "Speedster 993 in Italy" thread.

There's one for sale in my part of the woods. No clue if it's original or not. Ad has a mention of salvage history. It's been on sale all summer @ 69k

Wicker Motors in Los Angeles is known for taking wrecked Porsche and remaking them into special cars. I would NEVER buy a salvage car unless you know its history. Now that I have one and I am going to sell it, I can recommend that you never buy a salvage car unless you plan on making it into a track car or for parts. $69,000 for a salvaged converted 993 is insane. What's that saying, "Let's put some lipstick on that pig and sell it!”
