Wow! Beautiful car. Great price. Where were all these choice 993's when I was looking?

Good luck with the turbo. By far the fastest and most stable car I have ever owned.

Default Beautiful Car

If I hadn't just bought a C4S this is an easy purchase for the price.

One thing to find a WB with the options this has at $42K....and from a seller I'd trust without even seeing the car!

This car won't last the weekend before some lucky (hopefully a Rennlister!) person gets it.

GLWS Ilko...those 997TT's are very nice, you'll be back into air-cooled territory some time in the future.

Ilko, good luck with your sale. I remember checking the car out for you b4 you purchased. It is a sweet ride.

I am curious, why a .1 car and not .2?

Hi Bob, yes thank you!

.1 because you can find a higher mileage one for decent price and it's the last with the dry sump Mezger engine (same as in our cars). .2 cars have the 9A1 engine, updated PCM and facelifted rear end. But they are way out of my league in terms of pricing.

Very nice! If anyone checks in with me and would prefer a street versus DE focused 993 I will point them in your direction.

I remember that too!

Ilko,

Looks like you have tremendously improved a car that was already in great shape to start with. Whoever buys this will be lucky to have a fantastic, beautiful machine!

Hmm ... no argument from me bud, it's a LOT of GT car for the money! Power, modern techonology, comfort and fairly bullet proof. I've read about several people selling their 993's for 997's and returning but not many if any selling to get a 997TT and returning ...

Damn, I sold my very similarly modded '97 C4S back in May 2008 with 68K miles for $42K.... getting back into one is going to cost me the same or more.

Yep, you sold before the (luxury/sports) car market took its big dump, then missed the '09/'10 price declines and bargains, now things are back up (funny how it tracks the stock market, eh...). AND they aren't making any more of the "last of the air cooled".

Funny, the thought of a 997.1 GT3 RS has been bouncing around in the round thing sitting atop my neck. I keep saying not until my 11 year old son can't fit in the back seat. And guess what he said yesterday????
