Sister to mine, so it must be worth truckloads!!

993 Targa

Historic photos of ?? that is the big question.

That 911 Turbo sounds like my kind of spec, is it in Auckland?

Car is in Auckland - With further thought I had planned to tidy up a few minor bits and put it on the market in 1 - 2 months but happy to talk now if you're interested. My number is 021 535 051.

For those not on Facebook...

Represented RSG on Sunday coming 3rd in my first go at a Gymkhana so pretty stoked with that. Digby in his 996TT took it out running 2 1/2 seconds quicker than me. Zac came second in his 76 2.7S with just .4 of a second between him and me!! Such a good day and developed a better technique as I progressed and posting the quickest time for the Triffid course which I thought I'd fail miserably at cause my steering locks not great. Best technique was a combination of handbrake slide, modulating throttle and lots of oversteer resulting in the great pic below taken by one of the photographers.

Well done mate!!

I've only done one of these too, on seal, during the 2012 Porsche Parade and it was a lot of fun too.

I guess you have had your years value out of your PCNZ membership now.....unless you make it to drinks at Avida?

Kiwi Carguy

Haha at least I'm getting the invites now!

I'll tell you though mate, totally different experience on damp grass controlling the old girl.

Caught up with Costa too who used to do Trackdays back in the day with Rob, me etc. Owned a 993TT back then and now has a 997 GT3 and a Cayenne. Said he bought a 993 with factory delivery and 3.8 upgrade back in the day! Owned that car twice passing on a 993RS for it at Conti's or Gillies many years ago.

Interesting re Costa. I wonder what car that was. I only know of the red and the silver C4S with 3.8 upgrades. The red one is owned by Farmer. I think hes had it since new. The silver one was the one that Dong asked me to look at. He put a deposit on it then the sales guy was T boned picking it up from the paint shop before he settled. Im not aware of any other 3.8 so would be interesting to know what colour and model it was...

This anyone here? Caught my attention at the Riverhead Tavern on the weekend.

And the T boned one was the car that the previous owner of my 993 wriggled out of too and settled on the low K narrow body C2.

I've seen a could of really stunning 991s lately and this one looks really nice too. There is a lady around Milford/TAKAPUNA that drives a midnight blue C4S version with sports suspension on the upgraded wheels- pretty sure she's had it since new maybe 3 years now and have to say it's a great looking car. IMO the targa 4S variant is one of the most impressive looking modern porches full stop....

Macca

How funny, by total coincidence she looks like shes just traded it in!

I haven't been on TM for a very long time. Seems an overwhelming number of Caymans for sale? 26 of them!

Yes, and many of them are imports, some from Singapore, my favoured source. Not may S manuals though. The cost to sort the IMS weighs heavy at this price point and I suspect there will be an excess of supply over demand for the next year or two. Could be a few bargains for those willing to be patient.

Me! I'm here too, Tauranga based in a 1986 928s Manual in Prussian Blue

I think only one Gen 2 car amongst the 987 crop. Lots of tipos and lots of 2.7's.

When I imported mine there was only ever 1 or 2 for sale at a time and often none.
