Someone here must know the story on this turbo and the conversion. What do we think this car will sell for? The passenger seat looks rough from the photo... must be the flash?

I drove it today. Like all Turbo R's very fast and very impressive. Conversion was done in Dallas only 3000 miles ago and as far as i know it was a "normal" conversion - turbos, cams, ecu, cats. Don't know if the sportseats came with the car from the factory or if they were swapped later. I believe the wheels are Speedline replicas and turbo twists do not come with the car.
John, I didn't notice any extreme wear on the passenger seat.

I believe they told me $129,900.
Turbos, cams, ecu, sport cats and there is one more ingredient that I can't remember right now. I think a second oil cooler was optional and can't remember if this one has it either - failing memory.

Would the conversion make the car a lot rawer? I like the nice integrated power of the stock 993TT. With the RUF is it spastic power?
I'd love to have this car, but what would you guess the cost per mile in depreciation be if over the next 5 years you put 25,000 miles on the car? Do you have to not drive it to maintain its value?

I don't think the conversion makes the car any rawer. It's feel is very similar to stock but with a lot more power. Not peaky, but very smooth power and very driveable.
