Finished in Guards Red over a Cashmere Beige and Black partial leather interior, this 1995 Porsche 993 Carrera Coupe was originally sold from Joseph Northland Porsche Audi in Cincinnati, Ohio, featuring a 6-speed manual transmission, an optional limited-slip differential, Automatic Braking Differential (ABD), 17” wheels, a sunroof, and an 8-way power driver’s seat. The accompanying maintenance booklet shows the car was regularly serviced by the first owner at Autohaus of Richmond, Indiana, up until 2002 when it was traded in. The second owner purchased the vehicle in March 2002 with 37,370 miles and service was performed by Bryan Stewart at AutoCar of Indianapolis ever since. Now showing just over 55k miles on the odometer, this two-owner 993 is being offered for auction by its seller out of Indiana.
This Carrera Coupe is finished in Guards Red and features a Carrera RS-style front spoiler, Turbo S front fog light inserts, and factory 17” Cup 2 alloy wheels with colored Porsche crest center caps. Other equipment includes a speed-activated rear spoiler, a “basket handle” spoiler with an integrated brake light, an electric sunroof, headlights washers, dual exhaust outlets, and black brake calipers with white Porsche lettering. The car rides on Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ tires showing production date codes from 2016. The seller notes the tires show 9/32” of tread depth in front and 8.5/32” in the rear. Some minor signs of road-going wear are present on the front bumper and the seller notes the rear bumperettes and center tail panel reflector were replaced as a result of the minor rear-end damage shown on CARFAX in 2017. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with paint meter readings.
Inside, this 993 is appointed with Cashmere Beige and Black leather upholstery. Accessories include an 8-way power-operated driver’s seat, power windows and mirrors, a central locking system, automatic climate control, cruise control, a locking glovebox, a center console cassette holder, black floor mats with red Porsche logos, and a modern Continental radio. Some wear is noted on the driver’s seat and the seller reports all gauges and accessories to be fully functional.
An air-cooled 3.6-liter flat-six engine delivers up to 272 HP to the rear wheels by way of a 6-speed manual transmission with an optional limited-slip differential and Automatic Braking Differential (ABD). The seller provided a history of service and compression test results which are listed below:

These oil leaks would need to be addressed which means the motor is coming out and all gaskets replaced. Typically, if you are taking out the motor, you might want a top end to rebuild and clutch.
I meant $70. With a minor and needing some maintenance.
Seems about right?
Just noticed it is on ebay for $105k

When was this one service done. The only date is 4 where alinement due 3/24. Please show the date of this service with the compression leakdown. I'm thinking it was done in 3/23 at the latest. Why is that info not there also showing mileage in/out.
If it was done 8 months ago and the oil was overfill and its been corrected, you may want to rerun it to see if it's more consistent. #5 cylinder is a bit out of whack with the rest. Otherwise engine numbers look strong.
But so little mait done to this car by owner #2.
@smittone, photos are now in the gallery.
Were the PPI photos added already? I don't see them in the gallery yet.
@Philip993 and @Wilkins We have added 2 photos from the most recent service/PPI. In the PPI, Euro Motorworks states "Engine has minor oil leaks, light oil burning odor observed on road test, diagnosis required." A few lines above this note, it is stated that the oil was overfilled by a prior shop. There are no additional notes of concern. Minor leaks, but nothing Euro was worried would need immediate attention.
Welcome to the final day of the auction. Good luck to all bidders! Let us know if there are any further questions.
@wilkins Absolutely! Was hoping for a comment from the seller on potential issue since a PPI was just done
@Philip993 LOL you saw pictures 81-82 right?
Any oil leaks?
Bid in the amount of $51,000
