Porsche 911 993 with 8,000 miles compare to 154,000 miles

Lets look at a near new condition 1995 993 911 Carrera Cabriolet with my car which is also a 1995 993 911 Carrera Cabriolet but with a few more miles.

So pleased you kept the 993 rather than chase the latest and greatest ( plenty of channels do that - boring)- also you’ve taken to Cabriolet love- if people were honest they get the roof down more than the back out! I drive a 125i bmw m sport cab manual, right size, right power (285 Euro chip) smooth, analog- will run into the ground - yours will prob last longer 👍

[@alanwayte432]

Your aware he had two brand new 991 cars, however Nick broke both...

[@tampapete7954]

How lucky I feel....turning the key on my '96 cab, revving and rowing through the gears, air conditioning keeps me just cool enough (FL), park it anywhere and still get 25 mpg....life is good

[@Hazy_Bubble]

Welcome back nick!! Been missing your content !

[@nornibres]

That Silver 911, wow! Definitely a lottery car.

[@beardedgarage]

I’m glad you compared these. So many people are afraid of a high mileage 993, but they’re pretty awesome cars

[@gordydexter2615]

Wow!!! Great video Nick. Having owned 17 Porsches I have a special place in my memory and heart for the 911 car. I currently drive a 2019 991.2 911 Turbo S coupe in Guards Red. My favorite paint colors for 911 are Indigo Blue, Polar Silver & Amazon Green. If I ever purchase another new 911 I will order the car using the Paint to Sample (PTS) and get Amazon Green again. I owned a 1993 964 911 RS America 🇺🇸 in Polar Silver!!! I should have NEVER sold the car. It sells for $240K now. New it was 63K and I sold it after owning it for 7 years for 59K. It was the best Sports car I ever owned!!! I have had several cars so we live and learn!!!! Cheers Brother‼️ Welcome back home😎👍👊🇺🇸❤️

[@austinsand8163]

8000 miles over 30 years is a form of abuse, it needs to be rescued.

[@stebesplace]

Welcome back! Love the comparison and b-roll 😂

[@Number27]

"This car is my spirit animal" - Great to have you back buddy! What happened to the in car sound?

[@NickMurray]

I had to wind back the sound to reduce the excessive wind noice. Damn these open tops, make filming a nightmare

[@Poorschedriver]

I love that you took a beat to shit 911 and made it presentable. You didn't go crazy, but you made it an everyday car and you actually use it. I can't stand guys on BAT bitching about how some carrera saw snow once and now nobody will touch it. Its a car, drive the fucking thing. Also you're spot on about being the right size to weight. Since I can't afford a 993 I"ll have to settle for my 987 boxster which basically has identical power to weight and definitely gives that smaller car feeling that is so lost in the modern era.

[@clu4u]

I traded a 987 Boxster S for my current 981 Spyder. Sadly in the garage mostly now.

[@1MTEK]

Wow, love that C2S at the end. So nice.

[@pt99810]

Welcome back Nick! Interesting content, as usual. Many thanks.

[@jeffreyralph67]

I have followed Sloan Motors for decades. Brett is making his dad proud. If you are new to 993s, this is a masterclass of what to look for. You can spend months on Rennlist's 993 forum and not have this level of insight. Great video, Nick! (from an ex-1998 C4S owner who is waiting for my next one to appear).

Thanks Nick. Saw the 993 at the Frankfurt IAA when presented as a new model. Great...

[@VladiDusil]

we may have crossed paths then, my dad took me to the IAA in the 90s every two years as well.

[@StruggleBusStudios]

One of the most pleasant surprises of my life was learning how bustling the Australian car scene is. I’ve always wanted to visit Australia and New Zealand and this will make those future visits so much better.

[@keadog1838]

Great video! I had a '97 Carrera and a '98 C2S. Still scheming to get a third one that I will not be stupid enough to sell. Great memories and they make my '24 Targa 4S look like an SUV (almost).

[@atom999]

Your blue 993 looks great! I'd tidy it up a little personally 😅. That C2S looks amazing shame it will be stuck in collectors garage forever. Maybe a review of the holy grail 997.2 rs 4.0?

Just when i thought I knew everything about my '95 993, you drop the dual air horn fact on me! Unbelievable!

Many of those 95 horns fail, Pelican has a solution. But it's not as good.

[@detonator2112]

Cool video. Beautiful cars. But there's MUCH more price difference than 10K between cabriolet and coupes. I'd say about 30%.

[@BaltoMal]

That was so interesting and thanks for putting together the video

[@johnmorrison27]

Brilliant as always 👍👍

[@andrebrown8792]

RS 4.0!!! 😮

[@scottgordon7079]

One point missed is that the 95 has ONE OXYGEN SENSOR, which can be changed in 10 minutes without jacking up the car. Later 993s have FOUR O2 Sensors, which just harshes the vibe, from a cost/complexity and amount of work required, and then they are OBDII as well. In California, this is a problem. Must have 1995!

[@lonestarcollectiblezcom2602]

Nick, I see a silver 993 in your near future! The gorilla's are already conspiring about it! They said they want an upgrade! Happy motoring! Cheers

[@NickMurray]

Don't think I will ever own a black, silver, grey or white car ever again... More green!

I have one of those little beasts as well - the Boston Terrier, not the Porsche. Mine doesn't sport the wide body kit though.

[@nickzarnetske9994]

Like if you want Nick to review the Cosworth at Sloan!!!

[@ItisBean]

Nick it’s nice to see you are slimmer now, the celery diet worked out 😊

[@panikkos86]

As nice as these low milage examples are (at least cosmetically), I feel a bit sorry for them. They are well over 20 years old almost 30, and they were hardly driven or enjoyed. OK the original owner might have doubled his purchase money, but if you consider inflation, not really. 🤷 Also low milage examples sometimes are riddled with issues, there are horror stories especially with low milage 911's that need 10s of thousands of $$ to go back to operational status. If it was my money, I would buy a well used example like Nick's and never look back.

[@VladiDusil]

Agreed. Seeing these cars as investments is a silly fallacy. Had you put the 77k for this car into the S&P, you'd such have multiples more today than the resale value on the mint, low mileage 993 cab. But they, I don't judge. But I prefer to drive my 993.

[@rbarnard264]

Just sold mine, already miss it. E39 M5 replaced it😊

[@stewin01]

Welcome back! What was the price on the coupe?

[@detonator2112]

That MUST be north of $250K.

Does anyone watching this channel know this Brahms he keeps using ? Just curious….and I wonder if he actually likes it…I personally think that would be very cool

[@joshh.7983]

Hey Nick, how does your car compare to the na Miata in terms of driving dynamics?

[@NickMurray]

It has been a few years since I have driven an NA MX-5 however they are very different aside from both being small 90's open tops. Obviously the 993 is 900 lbs heaver which you notice but also the body is more ridged. The engine 3.6 vs 1.8 has more than 2x the power and torque, and the engine at the rear means how you take a corner at speed cannot be a last second plan as it can be in the MX-5.
