Rare 968 Spotted
The local Porsche dealership here in Las Vegas is a Classic Porsche dealership. What a Classic dealership does is takes an old Porsche and brings it back to original spec in house with OE parts. Every now and then they will have a cool old model on the rack or when complete, on the sales floor. Today I headed to the parts counter to pick up ATF to service my wife’s 997 cabriolet and AC belt for the 944 Turbo, and there in front of me on the showroom floor was an ultra rare 968 Club sport! Why do I say ultra rare? First, Porsche only made 1,923 world wide. Second, Porsche shipped 0 to the US market. I asked if it would be ok to snap a couple of pictures and was given the ok. What a treat to see a 968 CS in person. The CS was not 100% stock, as it had a partial roll bar and a 968 Turbo S rear wing instead of the stock bridge spoiler. I did not ask what the price was, but I think I left a little drool on the showroom floor before I left.

Wow, usually I'm not a fan of color matched pieces, but that spoiler with the Porsche Text looks great!
