Default '95 Cab Carrera 4, 43K Miles, 6 spd with Sport Seats for $26.5....But...

I came across this 993 on Craigslist. If I could get by the green interior (I can't) and it could pass a PPI, I would have another 993 and a road trip home.

$26,500 for a 43,000 mile cab that is loaded including sports seats!

That's lots of green but love the sport seats, maybe if I can swap the steering wheel to black and add some more carbon fiber....

I like it! I think CF would look pretty nice with that green interior, along with a 996 3-spoker. Add green Cup IIs or Twists and the picture is complete.

Other than looking like a leprechaun threw up all over the interior, it's a pretty sweet ride at a great price.

The longer I have my car, the more I like the weird one-off colors, both interior and exterior. I find them so refreshing compared to the usual black, beige or classic/marble grey. I definitely wouldn't kick it out of the garage.

I could totally live with that, and the matching Nephrite top and trunk carpet is the icing on the cake .. full leather interior, plus Carbon .. what a steal! My first Porsche, a '59 Coupe, was Silver with Green interior and I really liked it. .. a classic German combo.

I've been inside a 356 and a Boxster with green interiors. Let me say that 356 felt right with it and Boxster did not (I believe it's a puckier shade of green on Boxster and the same on this 993).

On the other hand, it's a very good price for the car and miles. 96.4% of genpop will be put off and will not consider it. Which means that it can be bought even cheaper. One issue would be selling the car later on. So... if you want to grab one and drive it... you have a potentially very decent deal here. It is my opinion that P-cars need to be in fun colors.
