I love the air intakes in the rear arches. Was that standard on the Turbo S and does it feature on any other 993's ?

Very nice. There was a silver 993 turbo S drove past me heading into Nottingham on Wednesday, private plate and a very loud exhaust, anyone on here?.

Just needs to be lowered on a set of 18" BBS LMs and it's perfection exemplified!

They were factory option that could be spec'ed on non S cars too but only on the S as standard fitment as you say

Not true: my turbo X50 was equipped entirely with that bodywork including the exhaust pipes from origine: was built by the Exclusive department and this 1 year before the "turbo s" was released.

Is it just me, or the cars colour that makes the rear spoiler look very tall. Is that the right spoiler. They normally look lower and as if they have melted over the back?

I was at OPC Byfleet yesterday and they have a speed yellow 993 Turbo S for sale. 60,000 odd miles - yours for £99,995....

Built by the exclusive department as in it was a cost option surely, ie not standard fitment? Like the X50 option, both very expensive.

Lovely looking car, looks low enough to me, not much gap between tyre and arch there, thought th turbo S was criticised as by too harsh as standard! Prefer the standard wheels to bbs too. Beautiful looking car although I still find the quad exhausts look naff and weedy compared to standard turbo.

I wonder what the cost of the air intakes was then - must have been a lot as it would otherwise have been a really lovely feature. I'm sure I saw a 993 C4S or C2S on PH with them a while ago, and thought at the time that they must have been aftermarket mods.
