Good deal for someone looking for a 993.

Riviera blue very very early ('93 build date) '95 C2 coupe with gray interior and the owner even had some door panels made with the throwback houndstooth material that was available in the early '70s 911s (says stock panels are available). 62K miles, $32K located in central CA. I have no affiliation, but if I was looking at getting into a 993 daily driver or even weekend cruiser, this would be at the top of my list of cars to check out. It's a pretty solid deal at anything under 30 IMHO.

Riviera Blue 1995 993 C2 - Pelican Parts Technical BBS

There is a Riviera Blue 993 that tracks with my local PCA chapter....has a license plate something like "JBEAN" which I think is funny & appropriate.
If I'm not mistaken, it is a somewhat rare color on the 993.

Dave, it is somewhat rare, although depending on who you talk to, not as "desirable" as arena red or polar silver. Still an attractive color and IMHO this is a good deal if everything checks out. I tried to see if I could get myself into it, but it would be too much of a stretch for me at this time and I really don't need 2 air-cooled 911s right now

The backstory on "JBEAN" is that the Porsche commercial when the 993 came out was of a bunch of Porsche engineers looking at different jelly beans in different colors... Blue jelly bean - the blue 993 drives by, red jelly bean - red 993 drives by... Anyway the blue jelly bean was matched to the Riv Blue 993. Cool stuff - that was the day I fell in love with 993s.
