Since I only have a two car garage, the 993 lives outside all year round.

Thanks for the replies.

Right on bother!! Keep driving it until it stops running. The PO of my 996 drove it until 340Kkm and then when the engine stropped running, traded it in for a new Boxter.

Hate to resurrect an old thread but I have been researching looking for real answers on a 993.

I have found one in Beverly Hills and I fell in-love with it all over again. I saw one of these when I was 21 yrs old. I knew then I had to have one. Well FWD 20yrs later, more wisdom, better and much higher paying job and I now I can get one.

I can afford to buy a new 2014-15ish 911 but this one is the model that always comes to mind when I think Porsche.

My 1995 933 is a daily driver. (parked in the winter however)
It has 215,000kms. One owner.

It is stock paint with road rash and small dents.
I rather leave it stock then repaint it. The patina is excellent.

The steering wheel is nice and worn and so is the shift ****.
Perfection.

Carpets were replaced.

Stock suspension, brakes and clutch. Work perfectly.
Engine has never been out.

When the time comes, I will do the engine and keep the car going as stock as possible.
Stock radio died and steering rack needed rebuild.

Would want at least $35k for this car given the market. But it is not for sale.

Comparable condition long hoods are going for $50-80k to give one an idea of where the values are going on even high mile 993.
