    Just one from back in the day (non-bmw content)

    The car that started my automobile addiction, my father's old 1995 911. black on black color combo with no options besides an LSD. 2 owner car with 64K on the clock when he bought it, 79K when he sold it in November 2006. Lots of small modifications included H&R Springs, Twin Turbo Shocks, 18" C4S wheels, 996 Steering Wheel, & 993 Turbo S Shift Knob & E-Brake Handle.

    This particular picture was taken on the way back from Nashville, TN (where he bought the car) in Black Mountain, NC. I am on the left, my dad's college buddy on the right.

      Very cool, the last of the aircooled era. I'm sure it looked good with the suspension and the C4S wheels. I'd like to see my father get into one of these (or maybe a late 80's 911SC/Turbo-look) after the M5.

        Haha, yup. One of my all time favorite cars and I vow to own one at some point in my life. IMO, the 993 is the perfect sports car.

        Thanks, it did indeed look good.

        The 95 is a great year since they were still OBD-I. The suspension pieces are much pricier when compared to the earlier cars (and even the 996), but is worth it for the driving experience.

        Thanks for the compliments guys.

            The 993 is no doubt one of the finest Porsche models ever.

                  Yeah, great cars they are. What solidified his want for one was test driving a '97 Silver C4S sitting on Fikse FM10s and Bilstein PSS9 Coilovers.

                      Nice man, I'd love to have a 911 or 964. Best looking era I think
