Other examples to consider: Ruf-Racer (Roland's) one-off 993 Turbo R in Orange County, CA.

Steve Beddor's CTR-2 with a custom Ruf Motor and Ohlins race suspension.

And of course, my favorite, the 993 GT2 Evo

 

That's a pretty nice specimen. Is it for sale?

 

no tim, didn't see it



just came up in my random google searches and wanted to share

 

I thought 993 TT S only came in some standard colors...??

 

Whoa... the red ruf is unreal.

 

the Jerry car was sold be Jerry for a reason, and since then it has been in over a dozen peoples hands. this is one car I would never, ever, ever, ever buy.
There are numerous writes up on it, one bad lemon.

 

Jerry the comedian?

 

yes, part of the Seinfeld collection. He doesn't sell cars often.

 

nothing personal, but i believe you are perhaps mistaken in calling the car a bad lemon.

i owned the car a number of years ago. enjoyed it for a while. while i didnt LOVE LOVE the color, it was in fantastic condition at the time.
It came from seinfeld/sloan to me, then over to Truspeed. I believe they sold it about a year ago.

The color is electric, and if its your thing, its a great example.
the interior is custom-one-off created by porsche for Seinfeld, and its done quite nicely. The condition, when i had it, was about a 9. 8 1/2.
its a 10year old Turbo S with the usual pinheads, etc.
but mechanically it drove strong.

here are some photos of the interior and a couple exteriors i had. 3 years ago cameras werent what they were now.
the red turbo S is the mjordan turbo s, also now gone from the stable.

i dont have any interest in the car other than its a great turbo S and should be properly characterized by those who actually know the car. unless its gotten bang around in the last 24 months since i owned it, i'd say the car is quite nice, though has always been overpriced, and yet has always fetched that price as well.

 

If it was nice when you had it then you were lucky. It is nothing but a sad, sad story.
I'll stick to my statement. Jerry rarely sells cars. I like the color, the price tag was more then likely a premium being paid for both a coveted 993 TS along with a pedigree former owner. As this car has made its way around the country from one owner to the next one pattern exists, they are all dealers. I do not wish to waste the time to make a call and pull the owner history of the car, but if someone wants to they can and post it. It is probably the record holder in terms of number of owners for a modern day Turbo.
All that being said, the 993 is my favorite car ever and the Turbo S is my wet dream. I would take it in hot pink without seats and a motor.
Just not for 240K or what ever it is going for these days
