Saw this 993 Turbo yesterday at Autobahn CC in Joliet, IL - wondering if he is a fellow 6Speed'er. PM if you are or know the car.

The offsets on those wheels make it look like it is an older car with a new body kit?

And...

That's a post 993 turbo emblem and it's on the wrong spot, it should be on the tail.

Thanks for the info....

From what I gather, it is probably a 964 (?) with a body kit?

Thanks again

Based on the offset of the rear wheels, I would go with a pre 964 model. Those wheels look like they for a '89 or earlier 911.

Here is what a 1987 Turbo wheel offset looks like. A 964 or 993 is a reverse offset, or basically doesn't have the deep lip.
