1993 RS America
#451 of 701. Grand Prix white with black interior and only 66k miles.
The RS America is one of the most sought after of the Air-cooled era Porsches. Created to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the 1973 Carrera RS Porsche built just 701 examples. The RS America is a pure drivers car and in many ways was the GT3 of it’s day. Then president of Porsche cars North America was quoted saying “If you like to autocross, this is your car. If you are a time-trialer, you need this car. If driving is for fun, this is your car - the car that the Porsche Club of America built.” Today these limited production 911’s rapidly increasing in value.
I have the good fortune to know the 2 last owners who together represent the last 19 years. The second represents 16 years of proud stewardship. The car has been meticulously maintained during his tenure by a very well respected Porsche shop in the area. The car fax (included in the pictures) is clean and we can verify that only the only paint ever was on the front bumper which had some patina over the years.
This example has had very minor upgrades that can be returned to factory using the original parts included in the sale. They are limited to only a Fabspeed cat back exhaust and H&R springs, which lower the factory ride height a further inch or so beyond the M030 factory set up.
Service records for the last 18 years are included. Also included are all books, manuals and complete tool kit. Recent services included a 60k mile service, valve adjustment etc, new brake pads and rotors, as well as a new battery. Additionally, a new Becker CR210 OE radio-cassette was fitted to replace a non-working older aftermarket one. However the soundtrack this car makes is all you'll ever want to listen to.
I personally owned an RS America (in red) for several years and it truly is one of the greats because it captures the essence of a 73 RS in a more modern package. With it’s non-assisted steering, it has a supremely connected feel to the road. This is even more apparent today where a lot of sports cars feel numb and rather disconnected; This is one special car indeed. For additional photo's visit click on the gallery tab.
