Default First Porsche a 993 !

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to introduce myself, I recently said, "why wait ?" and got the car I always wanted since highschool, after driving it for about 80 miles i can see why this car is so special. I was lucky enough to get it from someone that took really good care of it, can't think of anything else now...

common occurrence with the 993 ?

Cheers to all.

Tony

Congrats Tony,

And welcome to the forum.

I hope you aren't expecting to pull a boat out of the lake with that. Just a Joke. I'm looking for my Porsche. I've been dreaming since Junior High so I know what you mean. I just said the same thing to myself, why wait....But I'm still looking.

Actually I got this car because the owner wanted a boat, Thanks Rick if you ever read this, It's a dream come true !

Congrats on the 993...

Change out the rear fender protectors to clear, remove the red decals, add some clear corners up front, mount the license plate in the center and then have a shop do a proper corner balance once you put some PSS10s at RS height on that beauty.

That's what we call the slippery slope...

How many miles?

What options does it have?

Enjoy!
