I am the third owner and purchased the car from a friend in 2004 with 41,000 street miles. I have used it primarily as a DE car since purchased although it is street legal with a recent NJ inspection through 2016.

Engine: Original engine spun a bearing in 2012 and has been replaced with a 45,000 mile engine from a 1996 Targa. Bottom end was good but I decided to re-build the heads with RS intake valves, RS cams, RS Ti retainers, ARP hardware etc. Re mapped ecu. Replaced all oil lines, tank and cooler and added extra oil cooler behind front left grill and manual fan override switch.

Transmission: Stock except for LWF & RS Clutch

Suspension: Bilstein HDs re-valved for 600/800 springs, Tarret camber plates and rear monoball mounts, Tarret Toe arms, & droplinks. Rennline solid sub frame mounts. RS rubber front control arm bushings. MO30 front and ROW turbo rear ARB.


Interior: Leather Recaro Pole Position seats with houndstooth insert cover, RS carpet kit, RS door panels, Prototipo wheel and bolt in Auto Power roll bar. Stock CR 210 with CD carrier.

Body: The only paintwork I am aware of is on the left rear quarter. Instructor backing out of a garage at Pocono rubbed up against garage door. As stated, the car has been used primarily for DE over the last 10 years and it shows. It can show well but is a ten footer at best. A few years back I got a quote of +/- $2,000 to spray the nose and clean up some scratches. I had planned on having it done when I stopped track but things change. The windshield was replaced a few years ago and the installer screwed up the seal. Another item I had planned on taking care of but....

I have quite a few spares, starter, freshly rebuilt alternator, cat, heat exchangers, mufflers, a/c, plus most of the original parts, seats, steering wheel and most of the interior panels. Three sets of wheels: The OZs in the pictures are brand new with BF Goodrich R1s (One event), hollow spoke 993 turbo twists with R1s (+/- 4 events) and Speedline Corse ( I think) with like new Sumitomo street tires. Both of which need refinishing.

The reason for selling is I'd like to move on to vintage racing and looking for an early 911. As such, I would consider a trade for the right early 911.

Dude, at that price you're leaving AT LEAST $15,000 on the table. That's 2009 pricing for this car, do some research on what they are worth these days.

Way underpriced, if it was closer I would be all over it.

I think this is priced right given the non original motor, miles, paintwork done and needed, as we'll as DE history. GLWS.

Nice way to get into a C4S for 1995 carrera money

Ehhhhh, most people know the 95's are the best!

The OBD 1 and early build date has its advantages. I'm not seeing the difference in model years. It seems those in proper condition (miles in second) are considered the most valuable.

Wow, what a price!

Agreed on fair pricing, the ridiculous 993 pricing of late only really applies to low milage/all original cars that get put away as "investment".

Sent you an email

Magdaddy

only ridiculous if your are looking to buy an air cooled Porsche...not if your a current owner.

Recent pricing increases have applied across the board to ALL 993's, the higher the quality, the higher the increase. I bought my C4S in 2010, 50-60K mile WB's were low to mid $40k range. Try to find one with that kinda mileage today under $60K.

The OP's car has some desirable engine work IMHO, paintwork for a car of this age is NOT a deal breaker on anything but a true 10K mile museum piece. My car was a track appliance for the PO, fresh suspension similar to this car, paintwork, dirty carfax too. It has been flawless for the last 4 years, and almost 40K miles I have driven it.

This car is priced well below current market, somebody is gonna get a steal of a deal if the OP honor's his original asking price.

For a car with the engine upside down its priced right IMHO

Thanks for all the interest.
