After nearly seven years of ownership my 993 has gone. I am still unsure whether I should have sold it, but its too late now.

It was sold via PH`s to a nice chap that posts on here, so I hope that he gets to use it far more than I had the time to do. I spent a small fortune on the RS look, the big reds and setting it up but never got it to the track!

I am not sure what pork comes next, thought about possibly a GT3 MK 11 but I think I will take my time and look around.

Meanwhile, I will keep lurking... byebye

My comiserations David, there will never be a car like it again will there.

It's a shame as time marches on healthy and tight 993's are becoming rarer and rarer.

I hope your next 911 gives you the same thrills.

Pete, probably was me, often went out for a blast on Sundays. Car was allways kept clean so SY looks the business with the RS Aerokit!

I am glad that it helped you make the decision, I would choose the colour again...No problem!

Just what I wanted to hear C2`S`man...Thanks, I am going to start looking after a much needed holiday.

It was a real wrench to sell the 993, never though I could go through with it!

I had to sell my 965 turbo 2 a few years ago it was mint colbolt blue only 25k miles on it,I was gutted,now its worth more than I sold it for,but the money went into finishing my house,so when the house was sold it owed me a 911 plus interest,which equals GT3......wish I had both though.
