The result was the Stuttgart firm's most pure and refined form of the final generation air-cooled 911. While the 964 Carrera RS that debuted several years earlier is seen as uncompromisingly hardcore, the 1995 model year benefitted from all the work that had been done producing the 993 platform. Nearly 80% of the parts were specifically engineered for this next generation. A new alloy subframe served as the base for the redesigned multilink rear suspension. Generally, this improved stability, ride quality, and reduced the tendency for the car to oversteer off-throttle like previous 911s. Along with the other improvements, to quantifiably large to list, Porsche had created the best 911 to date. It would only get better with the RS. Much of the focus was spent on reducing the greatest killer of performance: weight. Electric power windows, adjustable mirrors, central locking, headlight washers, and audio system speakers were all luxuries sacrificed in the name of speed. However, the extensive diet did not stop there. Porsche even went so far as to reduce the size of the windshield washer bottle and decrease the thickness of the glass. Well bolstered leather bucket seats saved an additional 66lbs and sound insulation was removed throughout the car. Simple door cards with pull straps instead of door handles rounded off the extensive weight saving measures. Under the skin, further refinements were implemented to improve the driving characteristics. The center of gravity was lowered thanks to a reduction, 30mm front and 40mm rear, of the suspension's ride height. This suspension offered supreme control, not just in handling but also setup. 5-way adjustable front anti-roll bars and struts allow the driver to dial everything in precisely to their liking. Larger aluminum 4 piston brakes aided in decreasing un-sprung mass but increasing stopping power, while larger tires wrapped around three-piece Speedline wheels all around ensured a maximum footprint on the tarmac. Sitting at the core of the driving experience is the wonderful M64/20 flat six engine. An increased bore to 102mm resulted in a total displacement of 3.8 liters, up from the standard 3.6 of other 993s. Internally, forged pistons helped reduced the rotating mass within the engine helping it rev much freer. Better breathing from increased intake and exhaust valves in addition to Porsche's 'Varioram' variable intake tract lengths meant 300 total horsepower was produced by the motor. With the additional low-end torque provided by the increased displacement, Porsche created a real gem of a motor that is a delight to rev out all the way to its 7,100rpm redline. THE MOTORCAR OFFERED Completed at the Stuttgart-based Porsche factory in July of 1995, 993 Carrera RS 3.8 #390626 received a good variety of options available to purchasers. Degrees of comfort were added thanks to the re-installation of essentials such as automatic air conditioning, radio and power windows. On the performance end, this RS received the desirable fixed 'Club Sport' wing on the back of the car with integrated ram intakes, and a deeper chin spoiler compliments up front. Together, both elements work to increase stability at speed and increase downforce. The new Porsche was painted Grand Prix White, fitted with partial leather interior and bucket seats, and originally delivered to a Japanese customer via Mizwa Motors, the legendary Porsche agency and i
