993 Turbo

[jonboy996]

Did they do a 993 Turbo Cabriolet???

If so, what are they worth? P reg, average mileage?

[craigw]

nope they didnt, probably the closest you'd get would be a ruf 993 C4 cab, would be narrowbodied too.

[domster]

No they didn't, AFAIK.

And thank gawd they didn't.

Your P reg one sounds like a normal cab with some fettling. As such, think what you'd pay for a normal 993 cab, mid twenties probably, then subtract a few grand if it's chavved up, or keep the price the same if it's done well.

Well i will go to foot of our stairs , by ekk as like

[craigw]

its not a proper one really though

[domster]

Yeah, I don't even think it's a proper 993. If it was how come it has a 360bhp (presumably Turbo 2) Turbo lump in it? My guess is that it's a 964 Turbo 2 that's had the wings of a 993 grafted on. Why anyone would go to the effort is beyond me.

Price would be what you'd pay for other bitsas and conversions. Not much compared to nice unmolested example.

Anyone that buys unique cars like this needs to be aware that they are 'a buyer's market' kind of car... most traders and private buyers will stay clear, but maybe Timmy Mallet will come along and take a shine to it with its yellow dials, spinners and wide body bad boy kit and take it home for top money.

I read ago about these some time ago. Apparantly they were made by Porsche at the request of a German dealer.

[paultje]

I think it was a Californian request to Porsche. It was a Turbo 2 engine in a 993 cab body (fettled). You might find details in the US based Rennsport chat-lines.
i'm not sure about this info tho'
