Finally964rs

New member
Hi guys,
I am new to this forum and therefor I thought it might be good if I introduce myself.
My name is Boris and I live in Aachen, Germany ( close to Spa and close to the RING :) )
Since I was young (44 now) the 964rs was the one for me. This year I was in the position to afford one - finally!,
So I started searching....and searching....and still searching... I checked out the papers, the web and also the dealers.
Someone offered a purple one, next one was red, third one had an accident and so on. My dreamcar was in maritim blue.
After a couple of months I found one at germansportscars.net and contacted the owner. Too bad he was on vacation and the car was sold a day before I recieved an aswer.
Then I found one in midnight blue, mint condition with only 15.000 miles on it. Unfotunatelly the car stood in Tokyo. Should I buy that one? It wasn't maritim blue and all I had was pictures but it was a german lhd version and from the pics it looked like new.
A friend of mine who owns a 993 told me that you can search for ages without finding the perfect car. Then you buy another one only to find the one you were looking for two weeks later.
What can I say? I bought that japanese car and while it was still on the ship to Bremerhafen, Mr Schmitz from germansportscars.net called me to offer a maritim blue 964 rs. I drove to his store without any intensions. I just wanted to see what I had missed.
When I arrived I couldn't believe my eyes. The car looked almost brand new! It took me an hour to decide if a farther can live with his family under a bridge but have two Porsches instead of just one. Well, it's a really nice bridge[:)].
Btw, the maritim belonged to a guy from England. I am almost sure he was ( or still is a member of this club).
I will upload a pic in the next days.
Cheers
Boris
 
As promised...

Welcome to the best forum around - you´ll enjoy it! I´m sure the usual suspects will welcome you really quick also.

Cars look great, congratulations! Is it possible to upload a few more pics and details?

And you might like to contact the keeper of all data.... Martin will be here soon, too.


Again, have fun with the 964 RS register,

Hi Boris,

And Welcome! So let me get this right, you were looking for one car and managed to buy 2! I need some lessons! The cars look stunning, Maritim is a lovely colour for an RS. I *think* there may be a couple of other Maritim cars on here even!

cheers

 
Boris, that's just greedy!! [;)]

And welcome -see you at Zolder and Spa next year then??[:D]
 
Welcome to the club Boris. Nice choice of car(s)!

You're very lucky to live in Aachen - a few kilometers further west and you might have been Belgian! [;)]
 
Welcome Boris and congratulations!
I too have issues with aiming to buy 1 car and ending up with 2 or more so I know what it's like to need an understanding family!
Cheers
Rick

I will post more pics in a couple of days.

Welcome Boris :)

I have looked after three 964RS --- I have owned my Maritime Blue N-GT for the last four years, and it will be at the Classic Motor Show at the NEC this weekend !

I have had so many very happy times with my cars and like-minded friends -- I am hopeful and confident that you will experience the same [:)]

A very mottley crew --- herewith the 964RS salute following a very happy day earlier this week visiting a car collection !!

Very nice! Will you be going to Spa and Zolder--incidentally I am Belgian, but deserted the motherland for the UK a while back. Though I still enjoy spa (see video links below)!

You're very lucky to come from the Ardennes - a few kilometers further south and you could have been French. [:D]
