Vehicle Detail

1997 Porsche 911 Carrera Ready to go. Documented three-owner history Clean Carfax WP0AA2995VS321543 90% original Guards Red [L80K] paint (front bumper, chin and nose respray) [LT] Black Partial Leather interior 3.6 L H6 rated at 282 bhp 6-Speed Manual 129,800 mi. METICULOUS service records dating back to delivery Fresh service Factory Motorsound intake with Fabspeed sport exhaust Limited Slip Differential RS Suspension New Michelin Pilots on 18" Ruf wheels OVERALL CONDITION The first thing that grabs us about this particular 993 is the way it looks. The original Guards Red paint still keeps a high gloss and there are no noticeable flaws. It sits low on its 18" Ruf wheels and RS suspension like it’s ready to pounce; like it just wants to go. Rubber and glass are all original and in excellent shape. The interior is near flawless, showing very little wear in the leather and no cracks or warping in the dash. Headliner has no sagging or tears. Carpets are clean and fresh. Climate control, lights, windows, sunroof, mirrors, locks, and all controls and instruments work perfectly. The are no warning lights, service is up to date with a fresh major and meticulous records dating back to the car’s delivery. There are no leaks, no smoke, no noises. And while 129,800 miles can’t be considered low, every aspect of this car exhibits the care it’s been given and that is reflected in the way it looks, feels and drives. DRIVING IMPRESSIONS Looking great is one thing, but this car’s real beauty is in the way it drives. It is not shy about its miles and is in fact better for it. This is a car that enjoys being a weekday driver, but can still draw stares and phone-pics at your Saturday Cars-n-Coffee. The factory Motorsound combined with Fabspeed exhaust are a perfect soundtrack to its performance. The Carrera 2’s lightness, combined with OEM RS springs, Ruf 18s and near new Michelin Pilots make for spirited handling. It feels very pure in that it relates to the driver with a back-and-forth exchange, rather than take over with a host of electronic aids. It does require some driver input at the limit, but is perfectly civilized in traffic or on a Sunday drive. Adding to that is a recent brake service to makes sure things don’t get too out of hand. It is a car that embodies and flaunts everything Ferry Porsche intended his cars to be. The car is located in Sarasota Florida. I’m happy to answer any questions, entertain offers, or arrange a showing to serious buyers. I welcome international bidders, novice eBay users (with less than 10 feedback points), and those with less than 100% positive feedback. But PLEASE contact me prior to bidding. Your bid will be automatically declined otherwise. The photos tell the rest of the story
