Wrong color or I would be pinging you, man!

Black isn't that bad! Like many know, when clean and waxed it is awesome. But man the smallest scratch can drive you crazy. Of course, only people like us would ever notice. Also, ever since I have had ate car the center vents have been stuck on full heat. My mechanic has the car and and the vacuum lever bolt is missing. So it works fine but needs the bolt replaced. Problem is he cannot get to it without removal of the whole unit. A ten hour removal job! Whatever it takes, this is getting fixed so that any PPI will show no faults.

Funny how we wait until selling the car to get everything working!

Alex, my 996TT DE weekend car was black and that just did me in on that color on any car ever again... the 993 is my favorite Porsche of all time, and I know all your cars are "right", so I would buy from you. Just not black! Hahahaha

Yes that must be hot sitting on the grid too. Thanks for the kind words. Have an interested Canadian who found me on eBay. I am sure whoever makes the purchase will enjoy.

Finally got around to reinstalling the rollbar. So posting pics of that, the seat, and the amp under the passenger seat.

Still for sale. I was asked to take some underneath pics for a possible CA buyer.

From the wheels I see their sizes:

Fronts 8.5J X 18 H2 ET 52
Rears 10J X 18 H2 ET 65

Thanks!

Relisted on eBay today and lowered the price to $39,900. Now that I have my 2002 996TT and do not have room in my garage for both cars (I have the black 993 in a storage unit near my home and drive it once a week) it should go to a new home. Thanks 993 people!

Great looking car!! I am a bit behind in this post but can offer my 2 cents on overseas buyers. I have sold 3 Porsches in the last 3 years to Germans. 993 TTS, 356C coupe and recently a 993 C2S. These have gone without any difficulty. I was fortunate and dealt with three extremely knowledgeable, careful, honest and straight-forward Porsche enthusiasts. All cars had very good documentation and then local PPIs of various rigor depending on the buyer. Two called and spoke directly with my mechanics that had worked on the cars. These were all completed by wire transfer of funds. Pick-up and shipping all arranged by purchaser. Actually, the same process as US sale if purchaser does not personally inspect. I took pay-pal deposit on last car because of speed of transfer and then wire for balance. Pay-pal was very expensive and I would not repeat this for any large transfer of money. I used ebay for the 356 and auto trader or rennlist for the 993s. Good luck with sale!!

Thanks for the feedback. Aside from the one potential foreign buyer, I have not seen much interest since. I continue to hear that the 993 is selling for more due to the exchange rate and desireability of the cars. Since yesterday, I have three interested people all on the east coast. I know this is a great car and priced correctly. Just need to find the right person I guess.

I'm very surprised this car is still for sale.

Nicely set up with a full re-spray too, it will be one of those threads that once it sells, all of a sudden other interested parties will realize they missed out!

The right buyer will come along, the 993 market is strong right now with limited inventory too, patience!

bella1

Thanks...I needed that. Patience

Wish you were on west coast.

I do not recall. He may have sent a PM or email but I did not save it. The conversation did not go that far.
