Condition and Presentation Today this Porsche 993 Turbo presents in excellent condition with gleaming high gloss silver finish and smooth surfaces throughout. The body panels show excellent door, trunk, and hood fit, beautiful front and rear bumpers, and very fine overall maintained exterior trim. The lenses and glass are also in very fine condition as are the silver Turbo wheels with Carrera center caps and yellow brake calipers nestled beneath the wide factory rims. A set of Michelin Pilot Sport 225/40 ZR18 front and 285/30 ZR 18 rear tires complete the powerful stance. The overall look and feel delivers all the iconic 911 design features coupled with state-of-the-art performance advances, many of which rival those found in new cars today. 

 The leather interior has been very well maintained, showing mild evidence of use on the driver’s seat, which remains remarkably supple and smooth to the touch. The interior door panels and accent features are in excellent condition as is the dashboard, gorgeous instruments, and center console. The various glossy carbon fiber inserts for the doors and dashboard are also in excellent condition including the optional aluminum/carbon fiber trimmed 6-speed gear shifter and handbrake. The headliner, sun visors, and control surfaces are all uniformly clean and nicely detailed. The overall fit and finish of the interior is cohesive and tidy, indicating the exceptional preservative care this car has received in keeping with the rarity of the Turbo model, particularly with these added options. 
The engine compartment and trunk are both unmodified and remain in excellent condition. The original engine is correct and properly maintained with clean components and factory engine stickers still evident along the rear cowling of the engine compartment. The VIN is stamped in the correct location, as are the options sticker, the factory paint sticker, and engine emissions stickers. The front storage area reveals preserved factory lining, factory finishes, a correct collapsible red-rim spare tire, proper black molded components, factory treated metal parts, and correct hardware. The underside is in excellent condition with clean components and authentic finishes. The floor and structure show no visual evidence of structural compromise, consistent with the clean Carfax report. 

 The car starts instantly with a terrific roar from the Turbocharged engine. The clutch and gearbox work in perfect harmony, owing in part to the dedicated ownership and fastidious care under current and prior ownership. The motor provides distinctive turbocharged sounds. Even by modern standards the Turbo delivers a remarkably modern yet desirable 911 feel to the driving experience. Items Included with the Car

 This Porsche is accompanied by the original owner’s manual set and leather pouch, a tool roll with tools, a jack and tire tools, factory yellow plastic packaged gloves, a battery tender, and copies of service invoices dating back to 2014.
