WTB: Coupe
#1

Hi all,



I just moved back to the states after quite a few years living over in Europe and have begun my search again for a 968. I never did manage to find a good one when I first started a couple years ago. Anyway, I am living on the TN/KY border and really looking for a coupe with 6 speed. M030 and LSD would be a great bonus but those are rare I know. It seems there are more cabriolets out there than anything else. I am monitoring the as many sites as I can. My range would be around 10-15k (yea, almost not happening, huh?). If anyone sees something, shoot it my way so I can check it out. Thanks and may my hunt begin -- again. <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/huh.gif" class="smilie" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/dry.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

Why do we park a car on a driveway and drive a car on a parkway?

i can't believe you are selling that car - you were creaming at getting it, and now it's for sale



have you ever thought about keeping a car for a few years, maybe driving it, and maybe going to some events?

Porsche had high aspirations for successful 968 sales. However, we all know how things panned out.



To save a few bucks, Porsche deleted little things beginning with 1994 968 models (e.g., leather on the arm rests!!!!, engine bay trim, etc). Hence, my 93 968 came standard with padded leather arm rests; and 1994-1995 968s have "bare" arm rests.



I've had nearly a dozen 968s ranging from 1993s to very late 1995s. I prefer the 1993 968s for the little trim goodies and quieter cabin (seems that these 968s had more/thicker sound proofing).



That said the 1994 1/2-1995s are also very nice 968s.





Flash,



When it comes to cars, I'm fickle!!!! Most of my cars come-and-go. However, I did keep a 1994 964 Speedster for nearly a decade. Put a whopping 1,400 miles on it during ownership. Absolutely loved the car.



Porsche mfg'd sooooo many wonderful cars during the 80s and 90s. If I didn't live on a "postage stamp" sized lot in my beach house, I'd keep them all.



In the past, I've tried storing cars "off the beach." But for me "outta sight = outta mind." So I rotate 6 or less cars.



As much as I love 911s, the late 944s and 93-95 968s are equally wonderful. After all, they're all Porsches!!!!
