Default Looking for a keeper 993...

I'm looking for just the right 993 for me. Please PM me if you have a car that meets the following criteria. 993 C2S or C4S, sport seats from the factory - not added by an owner, less than 30K miles, all original paint, pristine condition, private sale - no dealers or brokers, black or grey interior, prefer a heavily optioned car. I expect it will take a while to find the right car, but I am willing to wait. Thanks in advance for any help that is provided!

Did anyone ever tell you that you have an addiction! Albeit a very good 993 one.

Good luck with your search.

Yes, my wife has told me that a time or two, Mark Actually, I am trying to make this my final 993 purchase as it is too costly to "settle" for a really nice car, but not exactly what I was looking for. I guess I am attempting to combine what I liked best about my two previous 993's and add a set of sport seats!

Over the past month I've taken a hard look at what I really wanted and as much as I love the 993TT, I'd rather have 2 different cars for the same money. So, it's an NA 993 and something else

Mark, you just recently sold the two cars (sans sport seats) that you are now looking for. You have an illness.

If I could have put them both together, they would have made a great car! I loved the look of the C2S, but it was very lightly optioned. The C2 was loaded and I loved the full leather interior, but I prefer the WB look So I hope to get one with everything that I am looking for and then use the rest of my "car fund" to buy another muscle car or Corvette.

And it DEFINITELY excludes my 4S. But no way, no how would I (or the two previous owners) trade the extra $30K for the additional ~120K miles of enjoyment the car has brought us.

I share the sickness and I totally get it. What I don't get is why you would care about a set of pristine sports seats added after the fact...(?)
