Default Number of 993tt produced in 1995?

Is there any documentation stating the number of 993 twin turbos produced in 1995?

Are you asking how many 1996 Twin Turbos were made in the Fall of 1995? For Canada? For North America? The World?

In North America, the 993TT was a 1996 and 1997 model year. In other parts of the World there was also a 1998.

The Sales Numbers I have for the USA are as follows:

1996 1,297 Turbos
1997 612 Turbos

Again, these are sales numbers (not produced). I feel these numbers are at least 90% accurate, and were reported by Excellence and PCNA.

Take with a grain of salt.

I've never seen a 1995 993 Twin Turbo.

What we know for sure, is that far less 1997's were made than 1996's. And the Arena Red ones are the fastest and made by the Senior Techs. True story.

Yes, I am asking how many 1996 twin turbos were manufactured in 1995. I know they first started showing up in Canada around May 1995.

There were about 74 cars worldwide manufactured under the model year 1995 code ie SS (I did have the exact number but lost it - I think it can be found in the back of French Porsche magazine "RS")

The majority of 993tts were built under the model years '96 and '97

Mine was delivered in May 1995 and has a 1996 "TS" model year code.

Wow, that is the earliest I have heard to date. My previous 993tt was #122, believed to be the first to arrive in Canada. My current one is #409. Hence the question of many were manufactured in 1995.

My 1997 Turbo was built in November of 1996. Is this considered a late build?

So, were any 1997's made in 1997?? Or were they all made in 1996?

Where would I look to find out build date? And why is build date so important?

Build date is on the driver side door jam. It's not important, just interesting to know if you're curious.

Take a look at your door jam. Upper right hand corner will give you the month and year.
