5 days in Paris and not one 993 sighting
I hear that the Euros are buying up our 993s but was a bit surprised to not see any 993s in Paris. Maybe I was just looking elsewhere while touring. Several 997 Turbos, and a 1984 Carrera parked on the street.
Paris is one beautiful city and a must see on your respective bucket list.

I have seen the way they parks cars on the street in Paris - bumper car fashion - just shove backwards and forwards until it fits. I wouldn't venture out on those streets in a 993. In a beater 997 maybe

Just got back from Paris vacation last Saturday...we did see a few 993's but as mentioned above...it is almost all "Smart" car types crammed into tight spaces. Beautiful city, but go to Stuttgart for your fill of "all things Porsche"

I was on vacation September last year in France in the town of Dijon and there was a beautiful Black Coupe 993 parked on the sidewalk in front of some stores. The side walk was wide enough infront of the stores to accomodate the 993. Immediate nostalgia missing my toy.

My wife and I were in Paris in April ... I did see one 993 Targa parked on the street, numerous 997s, a 997 GT3rs, and one old 928. Several Ferraris, Aston Martins and a stray Lotus, too. But my favorite was outside the George V all weekend ...
Magnificent!
And what was snugged up behind it that night wasn't too shabby, either.
