Default Looking for 993 Cab Tiptronic

Hi everyone.

I am looking to surprise my wife with an outstanding condition 993 Cab Tip. We had one for almost 8 years and sold it 6 years ago. It would be nice to bring another one back home. She will not drive a manual so a tip it must be.

This is what we gave up.



This was the condition of our seats after 8 years!




Would appreciate any leads. Outstanding condition is important.

Many thanks.

Mark

Mike,

Thanks. Mark and I had exchanged some emails a while back. He knows I am interested and we will talk when he formally puts the car up for sale. Mark said that he needs to do a little work / prep on it.

Thanks again.

well hello...

Nice cab you guys had there Mark!

Winter is ending (here in NorCal anyhow ) and I should have time over the next month or so to "get my affairs in order"... swap wheels, take proper set of photos, etc.

Thank you Brandon.

I did see it but I am not a huge fan of blue interiors. Appreciate your continued help in hunting one down.

Specs.

Cabriolet
Tiptrontic
1995 - 1998
Open to exterior colors
Prefer Black or tan interiors, maybe grey, no blue

Condition, condition, condition is important.

Thanks.

Sloan has a couple of nice ones but high price in my mind. Here's the link. No affiliation.

Thank you. He does have nice cars and he is not that far away from me. But his prices are soooooooooo over the top.

Thanks Joe. Mark D's 993 is clearly on my radar and I hear he knows of a good shop locally to fix any issues that might surface.

Thanks Tommy for being on the look out. I have spoken to Dan over the year. Interesting fellow. His business is rebuilding targa tops and he has prepared many racing Porsches. He has about 3-4 cars that have been sitting around for more than a year, including the white cab.


Again, appreciate the heads up.

You could do what I did and get a 997 cab, lots of tiptronics out there.
