One owner CALIFORNIA car, driven just enough to keep it nimble with ONLY ** 5,589 miles**. Always garaged in the
perfect dry air environment of the Sacramento California area, it looks as if it just rolled off the assembly line
in Stuttgart. Combined with the most popular exterior and interior colors and equipped with the best of the best
factory options combines to make this a very rare and desirable Collector car in Porsche marque.
The Porsche 911 series 993 were built from 1995 thru 1998 and are the last of the air-cooled 911’s. The Carrera
S (C2S) built only from 1997 thru 1998 is the most highly sought after version of the Porsche 993. With the Turbo
factory wide body and the Carrera’s normally aspirated engine the C2S was a pure sports car without the
complication and weight of turbocharging and all-wheel drive. The driving experience is second to none, with great
torque, lighter weight, and Turbo handling lending itself to amazing drivability. Featuring a unique 'split'
electric spoiler, only 993 C2S’s were sold in the US in 1998 making this a very rare late model Porsche.
Most enthusiasts and collectors consider the 993 to be the best of the 911 series. As Car & Driver noted,
"Porsche's version of the Goldilocks tale is the 993-generation 911, the one many Porschephiles agree that the
company got just "right," with an "ideal blend of technology and classic 911 air-cooled heritage. As an investment,
the 1998 C2S version has proven the most desirable. With the Turbo factory wide body and the Carrera’s normally
aspirated engine the C2S was a pure sports car without the complication and weight of turbocharging and all-wheel
drive."Many find that they are the best looking 993 there is and prices have always seemed to reflect this "The
purists will want 2 wheel drive and nothing else will do. Similarly, purists will insist upon the manual
transmission over the automatic "Tiptronic" version; this is even more true in the case of the 993 as compared with
other models, because Porsche 993s were the first production model (apart from the 959 supercar) to feature a
6-speed manual transmission. The C2S wide-body 993s are in scarce supply, with none built in 1995 or 1996, and just
759 units made for North America in 1997, with a final supply of 993 in 1998, for a total of 1,752 C2S examples
overall.

Porsche 911 GT3 RS facing delay over GT3 fire problems?
Mon, 24 Mar 2014Porsche has never been afraid to introduce variants of its cars. However, its even higher spec, next-generation 911 GT3 RS may be delayed from its planned launch this summer while the engines in the standard GT3s (pictured above) are replaced.
A delay isn't certain, but executives want to make sure the high-strung mill is no longer a problem before they press forward with another model using it. Germany's Auto Motor und Sport asked Porsche CEO Matthias Müller about pushing back the launch, and he responded that it was too early to say. The company's current focus is making sure the engines get fixed and working on internal measures to prevent this kind of flaw in the future.
When fires claimed two 911 GT3s in Europe, Porsche initially stopped the model's sales and asked owners to stop driving them. It finally diagnosed the blazes as being caused by a loose screw on a connecting rod, which then resulted in crankcase damage and an oil leak. The company is replacing the engines on all 785 affected cars. A source told Autoblog that under 200 customers were actually affected, and the other cars were either at port or dealer lots. Hopefully, the recall doesn't postpone the road-going GT3 RS too far because we want to see what Porsche has up its sleeve.
Magnus Walker pops up again, this time with his Irish Green 911
Sun, 06 Oct 2013He was the subject of a short film called Urban Outlaw. He has been on Jay Leno's Garage. Twice. He even graced the cover of Road & Track in June. And after all of that, he appeared in a video by Hong Kong-based Silly Thing. So it isn't really surprising that Magnus Walker is at the center of attention in the latest video from XCAR, but it's surprising - and a treat - to see his mostly original Irish Green 1966 Porsche 911.
Powered by an air-cooled 2.0-liter flat six with 130 horsepower (more like 120 hp today, Walker says), riding on 5.5-inch wide wheels and turned with a wooden steering wheel, the little green 911 does represent some of the best aspects of classic car motoring.
Head on below to watch the long-form video on Walker and his Porsche, but if your time is limited, you're not missing much if you call it quits at five minutes - especially if you've seen his aforementioned videos before.
