TJ,
I gotta say that is one sweet 993 and I'm a bit jealous. Fly yellow, PTS, sport seats and BBS wheels. Amazing. More details on how you found this rare beast and pictures please! Cheers

Found it by sheer luck.
Was making an offer on another one in Chicago.
The one in Chicago was Arena Red over Black, priced a bit higher, had a little higher mileage and literally no documentation.
I wasn't crazy about the no docs. So I made an offer of 55 (his ask was 58)
While the owner of that car was deciding about my offer I started checking my pricing again to be sure I wasn't off base with my offer.
Saw this one on Hemmings for 54,900.
The owner of the car in Chicago wanted to meet in the middle, but after finding this one I stood firm at 55. He turned it down. I think he was trying to call my bluff.
I wasn't taking any chances on this one and I made a full offer right away.
The Chicago guy called me the next day wanting to accept the 55.
"Sorry, already wired the money on another one"
The fact that this one was PTS, had sport seats and LSD is a super bonus!
I think I did alright.

Yes congrats! FY/blk is a great color combo and is looking nice lowered on bbs, and it will compliment your 951 and targa perfectly. Triple porsche parking baby!!
