Default New to me Black Black 993tt

All...an arguably perfect 22,500 mile example of 1997 993tt has arrived at my garage. All stock save and except of PSS10 and the Ruf wheels you see. After a long deliberation, I traded my 997.2TT cab (with PDK) for a Boxster S for my wife and bought this example as my weekend run about. I tried to be a PDK guy given that wonderful technology and simplicity of driving, but I just love a stick and that visceral sound experience coming out of these air cooled cars that we all enjoy so much. I immediately put some OEM sport seats (hardbacks) bought from another Rennlist guy to make the car perfect for me. Nothing else to be done except keep it clean, maintained and enjoyed.

Now you know where a 'nice one' is.

Absolutely Stunning. Darn near the perfect 993TT. I am looking for something like that in GR, Arena Red or Midnight Blue. I just don't seem to be in the right place at the right time.

I saw the Midnight Blue in Canada not sure I want to deal with customs. I haven't seen the GR Brian, could you link me to it? This would be my first Porsche although I have lusted over them for more than 30 years. Just too conservative I guess.

I think I should start a new thread.

I don't want to steal the thread from the OP. He deserves all the accolades.
