There were 2 RHD 993 RSCS in Riviera blue:

Yes, I think there were 6 RHD cars in total. Sorry - confusingly worded. I meant to my knowledge they never made a maritime blue 993 RS CS, certainly not in RHD and I don't think in LHD either
Pedant mode actually 7 RHD, Riviera not Maritime as you say, the one RPM sold was a mates when it was a couple of years old, only RHD CS factory fitted with ac. Also the side bar in the cage had been cut and moved down to accommodate a rather large owner! Black one written off many years ago so only a handful or less left.

And the interior was untrimmed and similar to a cup car ... this trim is closer to a standard Lightweight spec.



The 993RS and 964RS Clubsports were very different, the 964 version even had a separate vin number series ...

Maritime Blue was a standard 964 colour ... not a 993 colour.

But a lovely car smile

There were no RHD 964RS Clubsports .... but Ninemeister created their own RHD version of the 964RS, not sure if they ever made a 993 version to supplement the 7 UK cars that Porsche manufactured ... a bit of a holy grail car smile

From the Grossglockner this morning. First run after 8 months in hibernation. Despite being on a C-Tek charger the battery did not take any charge, so I had to have a gentle push to get going again. However, not a big job when parked on the highest road in Austria with about 2000m down.

First year GT3 Clubsport...Kussmaul did this one...like the 964RS.
She just needed that Manthey engine kit to dust the cobwebs off the conservative factory tune..

looks good, the 996 is a bit growing on me, although the 997.2 looks better to me, but the 996 is not that bad anymore as is 'was'

Sorry for the slow response my 964 was maritime blue, it was tweaked and at one event the spec was written down and it's still shown on this old web site ! (the e-mail is no longer in use)

This was black originally wasn't it ? It's a quick car, Colin Belton took me for a spin in it, the one overriding memory apart from it's pace (I had a decatted/mapped 964 RS at the time) was the induction NOISE !!

Yes you're right it ! It was resprayed by the original owner, he couldn't get a blue one as this was a late registered 1994 car, it was sent to Italy and he got the German dealer to get it back before it was sold in Italy

I had some great times in it, for sure
