Default HMMMMmmmmmm interesting...

No comment good or bad just that I always like seeing a 993 out of the norm... anyone know the car? Not my thing and I love modded cars but someone put some money into this car along the way.

wouldn't mind to see the car in the flesh.... have a feeling may look a bit better in person.

I know the car

Very well build, very fast and very loud

And I have only good things to tell about the builder, Promotive NJA

Almost bought the car but definitively too loud to have my 4 years daughter riding in it :-)

"Too loud", what is that? That's why I tell people, "my car is not a banker, lawyer or doctors car".

thats fine, but there does reach a point where it is just excessive. I had a modified mustang cobra that you could actually feel in your chest when it was idling. It would set off car alarms in every underground garage. It was also like 1 hundred and something decibles at WOT. In other words, just flat out excessive.

My opinion, muffler deletes and sport cats are about as loud as is reasonable on the 993TT. Those straight out of the turbo pipe things are just silly.

If it's too loud, you're too old.

Cool car, I've seen it around myself. Yes, it's too loud and I'm old. Now, get outta my yard!
Seriously, agree with Oliver there is a limit, the few extra hp can't possibly be worth the headaches.

I think this has been for sale for many, many months. For this kind of $$$, would make a great track *****.
