Teamspeed.com Member Car of the Month November 2011
Member Mike S and his spectacular 450 hp Porsche 993 Turbo S

One of my favorite Porsche's of the past 20 years was the swan song for the air-cooled 911, The 993 Turbo S. During the second to the last year of production of the 993 (1997), Porsche offered the 993 Turbo S. Ultimately 183 cars were sold. The Turbo S is a high-spec Turbo including a power upgrade to 424 hp (SAE) for the American market and to 450 hp (DIN) in other markets. The inclusion of extras including carbon fiber decoration in the interior makes it different from the earlier lightweight, spartan 964 Turbo S. The 993 Turbo S is recognized by yellow brake calipers, a slightly larger rear wing, a 4-pipe exhaust and air scoops behind the doors. This was the last of the air-cooled Turbos. 12 Turbo S cars were delivered to Australia

This guard red Turbo S hails from the southern hemisphere from a member who has been so generous with us in sharing his possessions and passion's for exotic automobiles, the common bond that led the majority of members teamspeed in the first place. Yes, I am talking about our good friend Mike S.

Mike it is my pleasure to call you Mr. November mate! So without further adieu here are the pics of his outstanding 993 Turbo S, the perfect car to signify the end of the end of the air cooled era.

I think you mean November DJ.

Anyway, congrats Mike. Beautiful car and well deserved.

A prize well deserved!

I like it more in yellow but in red is astonishing as well. That rear light is my debility.

Well deserved for a top notch guy and an amazing piece of 911 history.

Congrats Mike!! Well deserved and beautiful car!

Pinnacle of perfection...:D

Perfect car. Perfect choice. Congrats Mike

Dibs on the CF interior if you decide to part it out. Maybe the engine too. And the S emblem. Do you want to part it out Mike? If you do I love you. If you don't, well, screw you then.

:drool:
You've gotta love that car!

Well done DJ. And Mike; I hope you're still driving with this one, this is absolutely an awesome car.
