I really like that porsche... except the interior and that huge *** spoiler on the back...weren't there different spoilers that you could have picked? It cuts the look of the smoothness above the rear wheel fenders.
I have an SLK 55 AMG. And if I had your car black on black, with those tints and wheels... I wouldn't trade for the SLK 55 AMG. The red is not bad...but this is going to be hard to trade...with a dealership? No. But with an individual? Yes.
I wouldn't trade my SLK 55 AMG for that. Even with a price that high and a car so old (TEN YEARS). But nice milage (30,000) for ten years.

Well, at least you like the license plate
This Twin Turbo is in PRISTINE Condition.
FYI- Yes, the "huge *** spoiler" aka PORSCHE Whale's Tail is factory original for the wide-body Turbo. NO, there were no other "choices" other than the Turbo "S" that had a slightly different look.

Don't listen to Deuce, he apparently does not know the value of a 993TT. Beautiful car man, I supposed you've just had it too long and you want something new, but for me, I'd never let that thing go. You've got a piece of history.

I agree, it's not possible to debate with someone that is not informed.
I was tempted to try and educate him but I don't have that much time!
Thanks for your comments on the PORSCHE.
You, Sir, are well informed.

LOL!
I have been called worse.
Actually I see quite a few SLK's in a day, especially where I live.
I have owned a number of 170 SLK's and SL's myself including 2 SLK32's and an SL55.
My wife drives an SLK now, so all I have to do is look on the driveway and I see hers.
The PORSCHE 993TT is a fantastic car.
But as you can see by the miles I don't really drive it enough.
I want a new SLK55 to drive daily.

Hey that is an AMAZING car, too bad I don't have the money/trade for it
I love Porsche's however the new ones are so ubiquitous, at least in my neighborhood. That is why if I were getting one I would get yours. The wide-body porsche turbo is second in my book to the one and only (factory version soley) the 930S
P.S. if you don't know what I am talking about here is the 930 S cab :

SLK 55 AMG
I didn't say I hate the Porshce, I said I didn't like the color combo,,, is it that hard to figure out when I say I prefer black on black. His car is Grey on Red...not my style...so I was telling him it would be hard to trade his car because of that color combo...black on black sells faster.
What is wrong with you guys...of course I would take that car...in a different color.
That is my favorite porsche body style...I love that body style more than the current body style.
This is my quote below
I said this because if I had a black on black Porsche 993TT, then I would never think about getting a SLK 55 AMG............
I don't understand you guys....how does that say I hate the car.... I prefer that car more than the SLK 55 AMG....I was just talking about the color....,,,,,read the post carefully next time.
But then I also like the fact that my SLK 55 AMG is new and that I am the first owner.

Is it just me... or do others believe there is such a thing as TOO MUCH LIP on wheels?
Seriously, that has like 7 inches of lip. I'm okay to about 3 inches, anything more takes away from the sportiness of the vehicle. IMO

I agree, the lip is a bit massive, but I feel the look of the car from behind more than makes up for it. The car is SO wide and I like it looks amazing, but inherent with a wide boy kit is the need to have rims with a deep lip. I guess it is a trade off.
