964RS - thoughts?

[911Thrasher]

any one knows this 964RS? not my favorite color, but if it's good...i could take the jump

(personally i'd rather have a white, rubystone, pepper mint or black one)

Whippy: did you see the car?

IMO silver isn't the best color either - ideally I'd rather have white, black or rubystone!

I am aware of a red 964 RS, with circa 50,000 km on the clock; if that would be of interest?

The sale is nothing to do with me - I've simply come across it in my search.

send me the contact (PM) def of interest if not overpriced

Looked great in the GTclassics pics. PS pics are very poor.

yes indeed - i am afraid silver doesnt look that attractive, but i havent seen it yet in person

one reason why i keep changing cars lately, is that i find something i almost love: the color is never perfect
but i want to stick a little longer this time to my purchase.

Also fancy a red/black 993RS with high mileage (60-80kmiles...to keep the price slightly on the low side)

[quote=MrCooke Yes, it's the same car. Has had a front wing and a bonnet skin at some stage by the looks of it, but is straight and true.

We've fixed the clunky diff, refurbed the original mag wheels and a few other bits since we got it from Paul and it's an utter corker, not one to tuck away in the dehumidified collection but one to get out there and drive.

Sam, anything else you spotted on this car? I guess you saw it, maybe you even did some maintenance on that car?
Sam, what is your shop? are you the seller?

I'm looking for a driver - no garage queen with me, but a street queen: i would drive it everyday no matter what the conditions, but it would be maintained/polished as it should be, no expense spare

Ahhahaha you guys are tough! It's just silver I'm unsure of - and it would probably need a full respray I expect after all these years around a track.

And I guess repainting it in another color than the original would make it loose value...even though we are talking a RS here

Difficult, difficult

98C4S - I saw the anniversary car, but doesn't have sport seats, so no no for me.

I'm trying to assess how much I'm gonna end up spending and decide whether or not it's worth taking the plunge on a car i'm not sure on the color

Do I get the impression you don't like the colour .... have you driven a 964RS?

nope haven't driven a 964RS before, did drive a beautiful black 964 carrera years ago though.

Don't worry, no matter how hard it is, it wont bother me i have a strong back and Porsches seats are the best

Silver doesn't really work for me - and it's gotta be perfect so the search is still on (saw a black one too for sale, but the roll cage is too much for me)...next one

note: still debating to go totally modern with a white 7GT3
