    The few I know about are all silver.
    I can ask my buddy though, I really don't know the details but I can sure find out.
    His is really nice, I just do not know the brand.

    Let me know

    I was just kidding about the "black";). I know most all of them are silver :). Charcoal would be awesome, like the one in the pic I posted. I have seen alot of different makers versions, though the "vintage spyder" brand seems to be the best by quite a margin. Well when you get time ask if they are currently california registered and the brand :).

    Chris, I guess you already know you're nuts right? That car is beautiful!!!! I know,I had one;).

    Though the best years of the 993TT are the 1997-98 and triple black!! :D

    The 1996 Had a weak first gear and the ECU was not refined as in the 97-98s.

    Buy a 355 already, so we can be pals!!! :D

    I'm curious, would you guys prefer the 993TT if it was rear wheel drive?

    Need to know kinda fast ;)

    It would make the 993TT a true monster instead of a civilized machine. I have a friend who converted his 993TT to two wheel drive, talk about insanity :D!!

    Sorry for the late response Chris. If the car is running fine with no noises from the GB it should be OK. The 1996s had a reputation for blowing their first gears :(. But everything can be fixed :)!!

    Well you know why you are buying it.... and it is waaaaaay more desirable than that 928 could ever be...... :)

    It is a shame almost all of the 928's are auto. Find a GTS model (345 hp and manual), now that would be a fun car.

    Correct me if I am wrong...but has he bought 3 Porsches in the course of this thread????

    I bought one of those....but without the expensive hole in the fender. ;-)

    I'd be reluctant to put miles on that one.
