993 Turbo Speed Yellow
Discussion
Howdy all.
Got in my my head to go back to old school air. Always was torn between my favorite colour for this particular model
Usually One of the dark blues, midnight or iris, black or artic being near the top.. However, Speed Yellow was and always will be top dog.
Appreciate tracking one down in this hue, coupled with further criteria needed (mint, low miles etc) could prove tricky. How tricky, I'm not sure?
Am I able to determine how many 993 tt's were supplied in Speed?? Or indeed other shades - I believe you can find this info on the more modern 911's, but am perplexed if this applies to the older stuff regarding records held??
Many thanks

Sorry Jonny no idea on colours etc. I wouldn't have thought there would be too many C16 RHD 993 in SY. I know of a yellow turbo s at HWM but she's not as original as I'd personally like but at the right money worth a look buy the car not the dealer. HWM never going to sell her unless they get realistic about asking price which I doubt they will but maybe worth a call. May CV19 given them the short sharp jab they need to deal
How funny - I looked at it too (at £160,950)!

How about this. ? I’ll admit the window tints aren’t for everyone but it’s only done 745 miles.

I'm not sure it's the windows that are the biggest issue ... How about this. ? I’ll admit the window tints aren’t for everyone but it’s only done 745 miles.

745 miles!
I’m no mechanic, but isn’t that going to need all the cylinders lubricating and the engine turned over slowly by hand before risking starting the thing up?
I agree with the sentiment on the interior though. Here was I thinking that yellow belts and dials were a bit fussy. How can anyone think, ‘Yeah I’m really chuffed with that decision!’
