Sure we've all seen them before but I could not get my eyes off of it!

Thee 993 turbo is so awesome looking. The rear is sooo wide.

It was a black with MD plates. Anyone driving on rte 347 in Lake Grove NY on Tuesday? Was it you?

The 993TT's whale tail always catches my attention.... Definitely a classic and fast machine!

On occasion I get the good fortune to drive my old mans 1997 993TT. All I can say is that the 993TT is one bad a$z machine.


For those going on the TOD, these photos were taken close by on the Blue Ridge Pkwy between Linville and Blowing Rock, NC.

I guess I might be in the minority, but I like the looks of the 996 Turbo over the 993.

Damn, that Blue Ridge Parkway looks good, too bad I can not make it to the TOD event, maybe next year.

David, please post your thought on the ECU upgrade from Evo after you get it. I might just do the same thing.
