Wouldn't want to break a Maser every day on the AUH cruise...

I wonder if this would handle the commute.... I see it sitting there, calling me....

Epic - flying to AD everyday would be great fun, and you could bomb the goons on the road below!

Gt2 (ish) Tea tray on the back. No rivited wing extensions

Turbo S intakes on the rear wings

Seats are not turbo seats


Something doesn't add up!

Thanks!!!

It looks more like an RS to be fair, but it still wouldnt have the vented rear wings.

As for the seats- no idea at all.

It is still quite lovely though- although in my eyes the wheels dont sit well with the additional bodywork.

I would like to thrash it up a decent road though- the 993 Turbo is a superb bit of kit- i would have one over the current car if im honest

I will now sign off, and allow Shirt to come and tell me that something from the early 70's is FAR better looking. Phil, over to you............................

you're from the early 70's, you ain't all that hot tbh tongue out

your eyesight's also shot - advert explains the wing and seats.

that one's terrible. the only thing vaguely RS about it is the door pulls. wrong bumpers, wing, wheels, gearbox. doubt the engine and suspension have been upgraded if they can't even do the basics!


something like this, without decals and with a proper interior, would be my choice for saucy pork:

I just want a 964. The whole RS/Recreation thing mystifies me.

We have a RS6 in - mail me if you want info.

Main thing is if the Turbos blow. 24K dirhams to replace just the parts and it's an engine out job to replace them.

Other than that, I would have one in a heartbeat. Epic upgradability to stupid BHP though. biggrin One is currently sitting at just shy of 900BHP and has plans to up it even more.

Dear

I think my idea of 'cool' may differ somewhat to the sellers.

That is truly awful

Just coz he got featured in Wheels mag does not mean he can triple the asking price. I am sure he said he would never sell it as it was his "dream car"! hahahahaha
