For sure a nice example in a special ordered color; but it does have 37k miles and the original suspension. Has anyone seen a 30k+ miles NA 993 sell for a higher amount?

I think it's the highest self-submitted sale price we've seen on RL. It's possible that TruSpeed has unloaded one for a few bucks more, but probably not at 30k+ miles.

TL;DR: probably the highest price ever (in the US) on a 30k+ mile NA 993.

If it helps to see what may be the reference 993:

Must be good news for your flipping business.

Well that explains it. This car came with the fastest color combination (and therefore most valuable). I rest my case!

PRSWILL

It's a very nice car- can't deny that

I've owned my C2S for 10 years now and before that I had a black on black C2s but with the horrible tiptronic tranny….I couldn't give it away back in the day until Rob from TrueSpeed showed up and bought it. Will I ever sell my 993…nope never! But for my friend it was a true " flip " bought it, parked it and sold it.

After passing on all 996 models ( never liked any of them ) until late 2005 when I saw the 997 launch edition I had to have it so I bought it and then I needed the proper stable mate…..so I had to find the perfect C2S again and I did IMO. Love the polar with flamenco, honestly never seen another one like mine other then the one my friend recently sold. I was told my C2S was originally ordered by Jerry Seinfeld but I don't know of that being a fact.

That interior looks a kinda lipsticky to me. Is Flamenco red darker than Boxster red ? Maybe just the way the light was when the photo was taken.

Spyder_Man

Flamenco is a bit darker. Boxster red is a bit more orange in color. Cancan is really bold, bright red.

Mrrdstr

I thought it was the other way around…Flamenco has the tint of orange & the boxter was darker. In any case my color is exactly as the one posted above…I could have sworn the window sticker said Flamenco…I will check with the new owner.

Mrrdstr

Spyder man…you are correct many apologies. Window stickers reads : Boxter red special leather

I test drove a polar and flamenco years ago before I bought my black metallic/ black. It was stunning, but I didn't think it could live with it every day or long term. I do believe one of the launch vehicles came in that flavor in my German language launch promo book.

Spyder_Man

No worries. My car before this was a 986 Boxster in Arctic Silver and Boxster Red so I'm pretty familiar with both red interiors. I prefer the Flamenco Red personally. The carpeting that came with the Boxster Red interior looked more salmon than red and it always bugged me a little.

Great looking car in great condition.
