Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce you to a true racing treasure: this stunning 993 Porsche Cup Car, hailing from a distinguished collection of a good client of ours. In his quest for the perfect automotive toy a few years ago, he stumbled upon this Cup Car and was captivated by its illustrious history.
Originally purchased new by the Bridgestone Corporation, this car was not your typical track beast. Oh no, this beauty was pampered and used for demonstration laps, showcasing Bridgestone’s racing tires to delighted passengers. It wasn’t beaten to death, wrecked, or abused like its counterparts; instead, it was driven at a modest 80%, ensuring it remained in pristine condition.
As the 993 era drew to a close, a Porsche Club racer acquired this gem and used it sparingly before retiring it. The engine has since been rebuilt with less than 30 hours on it, the body has been refinished, and new graphics have been applied. The result? A spectacular Cup Car ready to impress its next owner.
The documentation accompanying this car is nothing short of incredible, featuring correspondence between Porsche and Bridgestone, and even the original design of the graphics. This is a rare opportunity to own a Cup Car with a rich, gingerly-used history. Don’t miss your chance to add this exceptional piece to your collection!
