Is that even a real Turbo S? Don't see the intakes on the rear quarter panel. The side skirts leave me indifferent.

Other than that it's quite a clean car.

It was a standard Turbo, the previous owner put an S on it. We removed it. I never understood faking a car. It was a beauty regardless!

Good job! I knew something looked odd He put on the TTS spoiler and exhaust tips as well. The only thing you can't easily fake are rear quarter panel intakes, those would be rather difficult to replicate.

If you ever have a real 993 S (1997) and you screw with it mechanically, cosmetically or add any modifications it will simply drop in value. They must be original to maintain their value. Plus you would just ruin a piece of Porsche History.

I hear you, a real 993 S should be left alone. But putting S bits on a standard Turbo (minus the actual "S") does look good. I thought to post this car going through old pictures because the color and wheels really stood out to me.

I agree unfortunately I don't drive mine much with just 4300 miles on it. I also don't understand the badge changes

WOW! I felt guilty about putting too many miles one mine and I'm on just under 20k. Yours is like new!
