She is my little baby, has a Cup spec engine with 340bhp, trick exhaust, and shortened final drive.

The colour is Midnight blue which is just so beautiful. I had a full paint correction done on the car and it brought the depth and clarity of the paint out that gets me every time I go into the garage and see the lights on the bodywork. Stunning.

Gorgeous 993! I had a midnight blue 993 Turbo before so I know what you mean, it's such a striking, subtle, but yet stunning colour. Look at the proportions of the 993, it's just begging to be thrown down a winding road, with close concrete walls and 200ft drop-offs. Oh how I wish the GT3 series could be the size of the 993

YearOne,
Nice 993 RS you have there! That blue is just stunning.

A good friend here in the Austin PCA has speed yellow RS that he found in Holland. The car is in concours condition.....Sorry about the bad pics -These were taken with my phone camera..

Hmmmm....Good question. Maybe he did the whole Grey market DOT/EPA thing and got it federalized? (Sounds expensive) I need to ask him at the next club event.
