I am glad to share the extensive detail I performed on this 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera S in the rare and beautiful Ocean Blue Metallic over Cashmere leather interior. The 993 wide bodies are becoming difficult to find and this car is an excellent example. The gorgeous, deep Ocean Blue Metallic paint gives the car different looks depending on the lighting conditions and the Cashmere leather interior compliments the blue nicely. The Carrera S model offers a higher equipment level both inside and out. The nose section, side panels, and wide rear give the car its Turbo looks. The longer you look at this car, the more you fall in love with it`s beautiful styling.
Despite this car being kept in excellent condition over the last 11 years, it was in need of an extensive detail. I was contacted by the owner to see what type of services I offered. Besides wanting the entire vehicle completely detailed inside and out, he was concerned about some curb rash on one of the wheels and some bolster wear on the drivers seat. I assured him that I would arrange to have the issues taken care of while the car was at the shop, so we discussed pricing and set up an appointment. He opted to have the entire car completely rejuvenated and restored back to its original state, so the car was left for an entire week.
Upon arrival, the car appeared to be in very good condition for being almost 12 years old. Porsche`s are known for having extremely soft paint, so they are very prone to stone chips, particularly on the front end, mirrors and rear quarter panels. I was told by the owner that some of the car had been repainted for this exact reason, so there were very few stone chips present. Both the stock paint and repainted areas were in great shape and matched beautifully. It had its fair share of swirl marks, light to medium scratches, wax caked in the cracks, water spots on the hood, etc., which needed some attention.
