^^ Of course he does, silly me. I think he still owns every car ever bought, including the 96 GR TT that he was supposed to sell to ME! Enough of this ... Sorry Lowrey ... GLWS!

bb993tt-No need for apologies. Having RW's cars mentioned in my post is an honor. I've been fortunate enough to visit his collection as well and found more than a more than few cars that were in my bucket list to drive someday. With respect to RW himself, you can't hope to meet a nicer person and as passionate and skilled driver. I'm pretty sure that the second owner of my TTS is acquainted with RW too.

Oh how this thread resurrection turns my stomach. That car wouldn't last 30 seconds in today's market.

A guy in Houston bought a 993 GT2 in 2012 with 41 miles on it. (No typo) for 250k. I can only imagine what she's worth now.

I contacted the seller about a year ago in hopes he somehow still had it and was willing to sell it. No such luck as it did indeed sell back in 2011. Every now and then it is fun to act on delusions. At least I didn't ask if it was still for sale in this thread as my first post.

Well...coincidently enough, about 5 hours ago today, Top Gear Porsche in New Jersey had this exact same car with a photo that the OP posted on instagram with a congratulatory message that says:
"1997 Porsche 993 Turbo 'S' 1 of 183 made in paint to sample Pearl White with Rubicon Gray. Congratulations to Rich F for your business".

Hmm...what are the odds we'd resurrect a thread like this only to have the same car with the same photo pop up by a known reseller on IG?

Odds : I would say 1 in 183 seeing that I was the one who brought the post back , I just remember his for sale and went back to my old posts. Seeing about all the interest in 993 TTS's lately . I googled that Top Gear outfit does not seem like many people like doing business with them ( at least what I saw ) . So I would say a definitely a coincidence .

This Beautiful 1997 Pearl White TTS was sold by Us. We acquired it from the Lowry, the original owner almost 2 years ago. Top Gear Imports has sold 11 993 Turbo "S" in 2013/2014 and attached is a pic of 4 993 Turbo S from just a few months ago.... AiRick, it was no coincidence
