Default The search for a 993 TT.

What do you guys think of these 2 cars? I am still just looking around. There both at a good low price but of course a good price isn't always a good deal. Maybe someone has seen one of these cars.

The picture for the first car is straight from the Porsche website. I have seen it there beofre. There are no "real" pictures in that ad.

Default If you want a great car call...

I just traded my 97 Arctic Silver TT with 14,600 miles to Ray @ RPM Sports Cars for a Speed Yellow Turbo S. It is a perfect car with all service records, etc. You won"t find a nicer stock TT.

No. Everything about the add and the dealership looked wrong to me. Just my personal opinion.....

In regards to the second ad...Keoni you can chime it too, door dings, front and rear resprayed with clear coat (poorly done), oil leak and a whole lot of B.S from the sell and the mehanic shop that the car is parked at. As mentioned above from Keoni... Don't waste you time IMO.

Couldn’t agree more with Air Kuul. It’s a shame what the previous owner(s) did to it because it’s a gorgeous color combo and factory carbon fiber option if I remember correctly. I guess if you can get it for low 50s than it’s a good deal...maybe
