Default Back in a 993!

Greetings fellow RListers,

I must admit I am not that active, but rest assured I am one certified 993 Nut. Not too many Porsches in my history of cars...

It began with a arctic silver 2003 911 back in 2002. Then a blue turqouise 1997 C4S, then a Carrara White 2005 GT3. Out of all those cars, the 993 always left a pit in my stomach every time I saw pictures or lurked on here.

Just this past month, a good friend, and after years of begging him to sell, finally decided to part with his 993 TT.

So, I am back in the "993" saddle again. It's a 1997 Speed Yellow Twin Turbo and for sure a keeper!

Richard

PS -- Will post pics once I resize them.

Always gotta love it when the Horseless Carriage Truck shows up with a new toy

Enjoy the pics.

Richard-

that is a sweet car! We have something in common. I, too, have a 993 TT coming. Truck picked it up yesterday and should be here within a week. Black/black '97. Can't wait to drive it, especially after seeing your pics of the delivery truck dropping yours off! Enjoy.

Thanks for all the welcome backs and comments. It is one clean car and is a fine example of a TT. I pinch myself everytime I see those sexy hips. Here's some pics with his Italian stablemates. The 12 year-old TT can hold its own~! Aesthetically and physically

Too many pics?
