Wow that 993 is beautiful, Is it RUF tuned or does it only have the rims? Is that Riviera or Mexico Blue? Looks great with the yellow calipers.

ibuyporsches is an unknown quantity at this point
My 993's have all been fun cars, and I love the wide stance. 2 1995's and 1 1997 all narrow bodie cars. In my work I get to drive them all at one time or another. The c2s is a wide bodie just like a c4s. With the narrow bodies being more aviable than the wide bodies and ruffly 10 grand cheaper. The last c4s 98 I drove I could not fell much difference than driving a regular Carrera. The 97 seem to feel different than the 95's on the road. are they the same?

'96+ has varioram intake system, which give it a bit more low and mid-range torque and ~12 more peak hp.

MY fav is the 964 Turbo 3.6 then the 993 Turbo.
Couldn't agree more. My FAVORITE 911 is the 964 Turbo S (slantnose), followed by 993TTS, and CTR2 if we are talking non-porsche

Speaking of 964 Turbo S cars...

This is a SUPER RARE 964 Turbo S slantnose delete (if I am not mistakin), even more rare than the slantnose variant. I think of the total ~90 964 turbo S cars made, ~65 were slantnose, so the delete cars are uber-rare [these are ballpark figures so don't go quoting some dumb article about me being off 5 cars]. I hope one or the other makes it into my collection someday.

I am convinced they are both the same color!! Haha so impossible to tell apart, especially from photots.

Here are some to add, I looked through and don't think I saw them. I think the first and last are RS blue, not sure about the middle...
