Check out new Avatar And Signature!

The title says it all. I think I'm going with this one over the yellow 951. Alot of people didn't like the yellow, and although it was faster, it was alot older and much more expensive to maintain and repair. This one has ABS unlike the 951 as well. Even the A/C works and the clutch is recent. The inside is perfect and has many, many mods. Check out the signature. I'm looking at a spring 2007 delivery. I think I can make this happen.

Nice. 6-speed coupes are hard to come by in good shape. If you don't mind me asking, what is it going for?

Gratz on the purchase. I know you'll be thrilled with it regardless of it's speed compared to the 951.
It's a good car.

He sent me the same link. I know you'd like this one better Alan as it isn't yellow.


Colin, we are working out the price, but since I'm waiting until 07 it will change. I figure around $15-16k.

These are some pics I found of a '95 Midnight Blue 968 Coupe w/ 993 turbo wheels. If your '93 looks anything like this, I'm in love!





Btw, is the car local Dan?

Hey Dan,
I just had an idea.
Cruise the highways of PA, till you see one you like, run the tags, visit the car at home late at night,
Pull him over the next day for "speeding", and discover Peruvian marching powder in the wheel cap!
PA gets the car, and you get first bid!
Heck, you can be driving your new car by July!!!

It's in Albaquerque (sp?), NM. It looks just like that one, except has 18" OZ wheels, and a Club Sport steering wheel without an airbag. It's very similar to the one in a 930 Turbo S in case you find pictures of it.

that's hot. the Turbo wheels look great on 944's/968's - i had replica's (17", non-hollow spokes, and they were LOTS cheaper.)

That car is worth every bit of $15k. If I didn't just pick one up I would seriously consider it. Damn, timing sure makes a huge difference. It is really close to me too....

Collin, where are the pics of your 951????

Alan, this one has 18" OZ wheels, not the 993 Turbo wheels. I actually like the 17" Cup II wheels better. With painted crests of course. You can see the wheels in the 3/4 shot.

I'll start a new thread. Haven't had time to get pics just yet (just picked it up last night!)

That 968 looks really good though. Hope you can get it.
