Is this the same car that's been the subject of several threads here in the last few years? Beautiful car by the way Rudy!

Blue Turquoise is slightly darker in person. It also has a VERY slight green to it. Both colours need to be seen in person as they look quite different "in the metal". Lighting conditions also play a big part.

Thank you for the compliments fellows
Pags993, this will be TIP #2 in stable , the other TIP is a 1992 grandprix white 964 c2 and me and my daughter enjoy the heck out of it
Tim, this is the car sir
RodKnock, you are correct you see what happens when you go to SF sport seats will get installed as soon as the car gets here, it should be next week. Btw the only 2 things I'm doing to this car is
1) sport seats
2) pss10's
I'm going to leave this car stock
Pirahna, that's correct, this is the car that was lend to me for a day when I visited SF , on I drove it I couldn't stop thinking about it, I asked the PO that if he ever wanted to sell to let me know and 20 days later I got the email
Here's pictures of when me and the wife took it for a spin on hwy1
