Sloan gets really nice stuff. I've been to his warehouse and it is a sight to behold.
But, if you are after a classic, perhaps check out California Restorations-- Incredible Stuff... http://www.caporsche.net/portfolio.html

No first hand experience with Sloan. From what I see they get some unique cars and some basic cars. They seem to be a little heavy on price. From what I understand they do a decent amount of consignment sales which might explain the premium pricing....seller wants their price and Sloan needs to add a few grand plus to make it worth their time.
Beautiful...

I guess I'm biased but I think mine is pretty nice. Doesn't exactly meet your criteria -black with grey, '95, but it is low miles at 41k and is all original except for bolt-on mods. Sounds like you might be looking for an S if looking for '97 or '98. Pics available, as well as all original take-off parts. $37,500. Purchased from Sloan just over a year ago.

I have an immaculate '97 NB coupe with 22k miles. Garage queen. Let me know if interested. Will not be inexpensive.

Allegreto, yes that is now my car. He has owned that car for a few years and he only recently agreed to part with the car and then we had to work on the terms. I put the M030 suspension back on the car and added Veloce RS wheels. Hope to post pictures in a couple weeks when I return from my business trip to the Midwest.

No doubt Sloan and others have nice cars, but something about buying from a private party tells me volumes about the life the car has led, at least for a period of time. I'd much rather spend a bit more time and get a real barometer of the car's history.

allegretto, from your other threads, you seem to be looking for 964 993. then holt, rpm, truspeed, sloan are fine. just make sure due diligence is done.
when i saw "classics" i didn't thin of 996 964, i was thinikng 356 speedster, quadcams, abarth/carerra. those pedigree you need road scholar.

I don't know why you would focus on any single resource. Before it's all said and done, you're going to pour over all of them almost every day. Hopefully you won't need to ship it cross country...

I'm hung between a 993TT and going "Caveman"... like a '67 - '73 piece
Any thoughts guys???
