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 RSR in bizarre, terrifying rally crash
Sun, 22 Sep 2013As far as rally crashes go, this one is pretty terrifying. At this month's Hellendoorn Rally, Harry Kleinjan failed to negotiate a turn and drove his Porsche 911 RSR straight into a Jersey barrier, flipping the car into the river.
While it's unclear what caused the accident, German Car Scene notes, "We can see his brakes locking up ahead of the impact, which also ripped both driver's side wheels off, so it may be a case of ill-judged late braking, locking brakes or a jammed throttle." Us? We're betting it might have been bad pace notes. Fortunately for Harry and his co-driver, all indications are that no one was hurt. Check out the videos below to see the spectacular crash for yourself.
Robb Report chooses Porsche 911 as its Car of the Year
Thu, 21 Feb 2013Robb Report has picked the seventh-generation Porsche 911 Carrera S as its 2013 Car of the Year, saying the two-door captivated its judges with "agility, driving dynamics and balance." The German coupe bested 12 others who were also in the running - the impressive list of nominees included the BMW M5, Audi S8, Ferrari FF, Mercedes-Benz SL63 AMG and the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse.
Judging involved more than just throwing darts at pictures on the wall, as the publication enlisted a panel of automotive experts to test drive each vehicle for close evaluation. The panelists included 100 members of the Robb Report Club (comprised of top corporate executives and influential readers), Editor-in-Chief Brett Anderson and automotive consultant Robert Ross. Full results of the competition will be revealed in the luxury magazine's March issue, hitting newsstands in about a week.

Editors' Choice: Top Five 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show Debuts
Thu, Sep 17 2015Consider the 2015-16 auto show season officially kicked off. The Frankfurt Motor Show offered a great look at the newest crop of production cars and conceptual machines, and brought some old favorites back into the spotlight for a closer look. (The Alfa Romeo Giulia, for example, debuted in June, but this was the first time most of us saw it.) Now that the dust has settled and we're all on flights back to the US, our editors cast their votes for their personal favorites from the Frankfurt show. These are the cars we truly loved seeing the most. But unlike other shows, there was no one runaway winner – all of the Top Five received positive praise from our team. We won't spoil the results, though. Scroll down to see what we liked most from this year's Frankfurt expo. 5th Place – MERCEDES-BENZ IAA CONCEPT View 12 Photos MIKE AUSTIN: The clean lines on this concept have me excited for a more elegant beauty to future Mercedes-Benz vehicles. Next to the Concept IAA, the lovely S-Class Coupe looks like an overstyled barge. DAVID GLUCKMAN: Yeah, the extendable rear is neat and all, but I'm more interested in the front-end styling of this one. It looks like the Tron version of a 300SL, in a good way. I'm hopeful it portends the future of Mercedes design. STEVEN EWING: I was super impressed when Mercedes said that, with the rear end extended, this concept has a drag coefficient of just 0.19. That's crazy aerodynamic. I'm not head-over-heels about the styling, but I think the lessons learned from this concept are really important, and will play a huge role in the future of Mercedes' products. 4th Place – ALFA ROMEO GIULIA View 15 Photos SEYTH MIERSMA: I can hardly express how in love with this car I am. The styling feels creative, modern, and evocative, without going over the top. The proposed performance is spectacular. And the Alfa badge speaks to a legacy of romantic motoring. DAVID GLUCKMAN: Pretty Italian car makes big promises and will probably deliver on about three quarters of them. I think that will still be enough for me. JEREMY KORZENIEWSKI: I'm really intrigued by the Giulia. It looks great, sounds awesome, and I'm expecting it to have a load more character than its German rivals. I hope I'm not disappointed. 3rd Place – JAGUAR F-PACE View 15 Photos GREG MIGLIORE: It's the first SUV for Jaguar, and I think they nailed the design, capability, and electronics. It's the right car at the right time.
