993 RS is even better looking with the standard, smaller RS wing. Never been a fan of that huge Club Sport wing. Still among the best and coolest Porsches ever made.
You touched upon an important factor. To enjoy these cars you need a different type of road and those are not primary roads but secondary roads or mountain passes y that’s where these cars come alive and shine. Sadly it may not be possible for a lot to be opportuned to have access to these roads. I have a 993 RS tribute and don’t even bother driving her in town anymore, seems an absolute waste. Only ever comes out to go to the Mediterranean mountain passes or the Pyrenees etc where she comes alive. They are great cars indeed👌🏿🙏🏿
Really well said. By the way, tribute cars are an excellent was to get a car you can enjoy that is 90% of the OEM car at a fraction of the price. Love that you are enjoying yours!
I restore cars for a living and also own a variety of American and German cars and the biggest mistake is the people who buy these types of cars and just let them sit in a collection and don't drive them thats what ruins this type od car as ecerything drys up yes miles are important to keep off the speedo but when it comes to Porsche engines 30 to 40k for a reseal is expensive i don't care who you are.Just my 2 cents thanks for the cool video and just fyi Porsches doo not have a frame the factory stitch welded the unibody saying that in the nicest way..Kevin😊
Thank you for the great comment! We know these cars well but can learn plenty from people like you who are restoring these beauties. Completely agree with you philosophy as well.
You fail to mention a few things you might not know about this car. Let me help you out here. 993 RS comes with manual lifters instead of hydraulic lifters, it also is equipped with a kill,switch in the front, it has a way smaller reservoir for the windshield washer fluid and is located in the right hand side of the frunk instead of the huge bottle under the left fender, and it comes with a different front wheel mount to compensate for its lower right height, just to name a few more things😉
I have nothing but contempt for people who buy cars "strategically". They are one reason why every POS regular passenger car older than 25 is going up in prices because everyone just buys to make more of it in the future. Not to enjoy the freakin hobby anymore.

Great car. Drives amazing.
Needs to be driven hard…stupid that it’s worth too much to push hard on the track
