Very nice! If indeed well cared for by PO and the PPI checked out, you could probably wait closer to 30k on the service interval...JMHO.

Agreed on all accounts.

Color, references to the Boxter and RL.

Now make arrangements to join us down in Savannah this summer for the Porsche Parade!

Silver 993s UNITE!

I have very similar situation. Traded Cayman S for one owner 993 C4. Cayman did everything right, but not being able to see the motor (or oil) really started to bother me.
The 993 just feels like a more expensive car to me and driving dynamics, well, we all know what that's all about.

How much did you pay for the car?

Did your C4S come from CT? I sold mine in the same color with ultra low miles a few years ago to a fellow in CT.

No- I purchased it from a guy in NJ - the second owner. I paid more than I should have, but its super clean, was close by, was the exact color and spec's I wanted, came with a new spare rim and a few extra's and the owner was super careful and looked after the car like a son...oh, yeah....abd he didn't really want to sell it.....oh, and did I mention that I fell in love with it ????........
