The body of the 993, which has already been completely repainted, is presented in classic silver, and the current owner's attitude rules out an accident. He also bought the vehicle as accident-free at the time. Only a few minor damages can be seen from the car's all-round beautiful paint condition: There is minor damage on the rear apron under the bumper, which according to the seller comes from parking. There are no deficits on the front apron, and there is no rust on the entire body. The third brake light should be noted as a modification on the exterior, otherwise the exterior of the 911 is completely original.
Michelin tires, which according to the owner have been driven 10,000 kilometers since their purchase in 2017, are mounted on 17-inch Porsche five-spoke alloy wheels. The 993 has 205/50 tires on the front axle and 255/40 tires on the rear axle. The disc brakes, which are perforated all around, can be attested to be in an acceptable condition, there are obviously no serious defects in the chassis.
