1995 Porsche 911 Race Car

Race-prepped cars exist within their own market and are notoriously difficult to correctly evaluate and price. Much of this difficulty arises from the simple fact that many racers have specific preferences or builds in mind and it might be rare to come across a car that checks enough boxes to make the purchase worthwhile, at least at a cost that also makes sense to the seller. From a simple market perspective, in the case of vintage racers, there are usually a few transactions or other benchmarks upon which reasonable decision making can be based, but for a newer model such as this 1995 Porsche 911 there may be few relevant comparables. The 993 racer featured here falls in the middle ground of the race-prepped spectrum. While it has upgraded suspension and a fully race-prepped interior, it has retained its stock motor, though shorter gear ratios have been implemented to improve acceleration.

This is a beautiful Porsche 993 built by a well-respected race shop for a discerning club racer. Won its class at Mid-Ohio in the only race it ever entered, and since then this Porsche has been my personal drivers education car.
Never crashed or damaged
The last of the air-cooled Porsches. Well sorted and maintained; the ideal track car for drivers education/or club racing. Stock motor for reliability, shorter gears for optimal acceleration, race suspension (Moton Club Sport, RSA sway bars, 700/900 lb springs) for amazing handling, RS mufflers for awesome sound.
Car lightened for performance, full welded cage and Momo race seats with 6-point harnesses for safety.
AiM MXL Pista data acquisition system with AiM SmartyCam camera.
Car has been maintained to a high standard for safety and reliability by a professional independent Porsche mechanic. Transmission rebuilt in 2011, at which time we replaced the clutch and flywheel.
Includes 1 set of BBS Classic RT wheels (8.5 front/10 rear 18″) with Michelin Super Sport tires in excellent condition.
Spares negotiable, including extra race wheels (Fikse, Forgeline, and CCW).

As track cars go this one seems relatively tame, but for some buyers that may be more of a plus than a minus. Bidding currently sits at $30,100 with reserve still on. That’s a fairly reasonable price, though judging by the BIN price it has a ways to go before the reserve is met. Whether it’s worth that BIN I’ll leave for others to decide. As with almost any race-prepped car, replicating the build will almost certainly cost more than the cost of this car, and that may not even factor in the cost of sourcing a decent 993.
