I would love a 993 as a daily. I never drive mine to work because it is all highway and my daily gets pummeled with rocks, debris, idiots, etc.

Congrats!! A great color combination, had a C2S just like that, always drew compliments.

Congrats on the new car, Joe! You're hard-core. Please let us know how the "no mod" ethos works out for you.

Oh, I know how this will end...

Congratulations again Joe... really nice catch. I'm jealous on many levels and hope I can get into another 993 before too long... My version of a "driver" might be a notch or two below yours though

Dude, those bugs... yikes!

Joe,
You did the right thing by rescuing that beauty. Drive it daily, as it promotes good health! As you can see i did the same thing recently, doubling up on 993s. Its a stress reliever when taken in daily doses!

Congratulations and great color - not as fast as black, though

My wife liked my 993 so much she decided we needed a second, thus the C2S in Arena Red. Two is definitely better than one. Enjoy!

Scary. I let hubby drive mine for his first track day (I felt guilty being the only track addict, so urged him to try it -but now he.has.the fever!). He wanted to make changes so he could fit better. I told him to get his own. Now he wants one. And I foolishly dropped the idea of getting a Cab for weekend drives. I have created a monster.
