Wow - as I said earlier, there were litterally dozens of 968s for sale when I was trying to sell mine. I guess it worked out in the end, because (hopefully) I'll have a very capable and fun track car when I'm done.

Around here we have Provost Motorsports to do a <acronym title='pre purchase inspection'>PPI</acronym>. I believe it's where Max of previous RS Barn fame works. Not in your local area, but at least competent if you come up this way.



Happy to look at a car up this way for you if you need an assist as well.

Thanks for all the tips (and encouragement) guys! It's true that pickings are pretty slim right now for 968 coupes in the US. I have another one in my sights right now though - the hunt goes on!

Greetings All!!



I am very pleased to announce that my epic quest has at long last come to a happy conclusion.



I am the proud new owner of a midnight blue over tan 1994 coupe! She drives like a dream.



Many thanks to everyone on the forum who helped me along the way.



Now I have some driving to do!

Congrats! Yes, for some reason, the number of coupe for sale (at least on Autotrader) has plummeted lately (although there seem to be plenty of cabs for sale). I'm glad your patience and perseverance paid off.

Epic? What are you some sort of conquistador or crusader in search of the holy 968? We wish your all the best in your epic journey! Take no prisoners.
