Thanks, but I have tried the usual suspects in the uk and Germany.

Hoping a PH member knows of one that might be coming up for sale.

Give sambaman a mail through his profile; from memory he had a gorgeous RSR for sale in yellow, with all the right bits - inc ducted GT2/cup kevlar front splitter (or whatever it is).

black lhd car available at autofarm.......comfort spec with standard smaller spoiler...you are unlikely to find the exact car you are looking for (believe me I know) such things as spoilers can be added later if required.

Paul Howells (Bergmeister) has a mate IIRC with a set of genuine Clubsport front and rear spoilers for sale.
Come to that it may be worth havinfg a word with Bergmeister or Vic C, they seem to know the whereabouts of most of the cars out there

Yep - they have a Riviera Blue one for sale. Not the right colour for me.

Is that not Paul Mc's old personal car? As an aside Martin Pearce has had a couple of modded '64RS for a while now. As another aside, had a ride in a GT3 around the Ring yesterday, and was amazed at how much grip they have (std susp, Pzero tyres).

Not Black blue or silver, but it's got a few more horsepower to make up for it !
And it's got a big spoiler (albeit Techart rather than Porsche)

Nothing wrong with being fussy,,,,these cars are rare and good one are becoming harder to find, it makes sense to work out your priorities on a car as it may take a very long time to tick all your boxes at a price you are happy with....I never thought I would end up buying a yellow one!

Had a 964rs clubsport for a couple of years and loved it. More recently i sold my GT3 MKII, which I had JRZ suspension put on by Parr. Really fancy a 993 rs lightweight or clubsport as I said. Not really a fan of heavily modded cars such as the one at specialist cars.

Looking for a an A1 low mileage example that I can cherish... and track occasionally of course! Normally I would only consider a clubsport, but I am getting a little bored of track days, so will consider a lightweight...but must have the rsr spoilers on.

If it takes a year or more to find the right car then so be it.

Thanks for the pointers so far.

I am... just miss having something special in the garage! Not willing for that car to be non collectible - sick of losing money on cars that I only use occasionally!

When you say, "lightweight", do you mean an RS Comfort version?

Wasn't there only two road versions - 993 RS and 993 RS Clubsport? Where does comfort come from?

I use the term lightweight, as I used to have a 964 rs.

Now I'm not the expert here, but Comfort spec includes such things as aircon, electric windows and the like I think. So your regular 993RS (non Clubsport) comes in regular or comfort.

Now I happen to have a silver one, with big wing pack in the garage... I have it on loan whilst my friend is out of the country and my 964rs is at the menders. Lovely car on road and track. He claims he will never sell it. Sorry!
