Default Rare Wimbledon green Cab at Holt

I think this car's been on here before ... it's back on eBay AGAIN, but the Buy-it-Now price is lower this time. Not for everyone, but I love this color, black interior with a factory RSD and you KNOW what I think this car would be a perfect candidate for ..

Anyway, as usual, no affiliation, blah, blah, ... just sharing more pretty, shiny things ...

I concur. Nice color, nice condition, low miles and very reasonable price given those points. The RSD makes so much sense in a cab, especially if the you like her to go topless.

No offense, but what exactly is so 'rare' about it?

Rare as in unusual to find a coupe or cab in this shade... at least in the US. Maybe more common in Holland.... or Ireland.

I like it,

needs "every" 993 mod however.
Looks weird sitting so high up off the ground though.

I would kill however for that rear seat delete option on my cab.

Yes, paint color is paint-to-sample from a previous model year, code 998. I've seen a few Turbo's this color, but not a cab ... Then there's the RSD ...

WOW, that seems reasonably priced for what it is...especially from Holt!

I spent quite a few hours there when my search first began, just to check out body styles...he had two 964 C4 widebodies, a 98 C2S, and about 15 NB C2's and C4's in many color combo's. Unfortunately, they were packed in so tightly, and the lighting was so horrific, that you really couldn't admire/appreciate the differences.

He does have lots of nice cars though...usually overpriced-IMHO.

^^^ Exactly. He's had it for awhile ... at least over a year IIRC so as with all inventory, it's time to move it :-) But, it's not the usual for Holt .. his prices are usually high.

Not getting much action on ebay, just the typical 'tire kickers'. Only 4 bids and still under $26,000 with 2 days left.

I think it's a polarizing color, either you love it or hate it .. not much in between so the demographic for that car is small.

993s look good in any just about any colour as long as they have the right stance. Lower it and put some MY02s on and it's good to go.

Hard to believe high bid was only $27K.

Bumper has a couple of holes. That there is a deal breaker.
