Have you driven one yet? I used to own one, and IMO, they don't need any performance mods. Sure, you can improve things, but they are great cars bone stock.
thanx

Unless you are dead set on a 993, don't ignore a 1992, 1993, or 1994 964. By year model 92, Porsche had about perfected the 964. The three model years are identical except the '92 model uses R-12 freon, '93 and later are R-134. A two wheel drive 964 coupe or cab with a manual transmission is a wonderful 911.

My buddy bought a $20k 928 a few years ago. Before he bought it, I told him "you may be buying a 20 thousand dollar car, but you'll be buying parts for an 80 thousand dollar car and having them put on by someone who works on $150 thousand dollar cars all day"
His $20K 928 became a $30K 928 in about 6 months and the following summer it became someone else's $17K 928 and my buddy started leasing Tauruses every few years.

Look on his site then go to past sales on Ebay. He talks the cars up like his mother owned them yet he bought them on Ebay two weeks earlier for 15-20K less.
Beware of his "give me a deposit and I will ship the car to your door" for your inspection practice too. He tends to keep your 5K if you don't like the car. Like a restocking fee!
