T-Man Posted 16January, 2013 Report Share Posted 16January, 2013 Hey Chris. I may have it all wrong but I have yet to see an Aussie car with the single speaker, unless I'm thinking maybe a really early version. What month/year was your car built?

ByronBayChris Posted 16January, 2013 Report Share Posted 16January, 2013 My plate is showing 1/94, so I might claim to be 'the first 993 delivered into Australia!. Could make a good ebay title? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Man Posted 16January, 2013 Report Share Posted 16January, 2013 Chris. That is a very early car!!!!!! What are the last 4 digits of your VIN? Lower the number the earlier it was made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ByronBayChris Posted 16January, 2013 Report Share Posted 16January, 2013 Last 4 digits...... 0778 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Man Posted 16January, 2013 Report Share Posted 16January, 2013 Number 778. I'm at 3404. That may explain things. The earlier imports may have had a different sound system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Posted 16January, 2013 Report Share Posted 16January, 2013 Unless Q pops up to answer the sound system question before hand I can ask him later tonight if you like. Although I have heard if you say his name 3 times in the dark he will just kind of turn up out of thin air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Man Posted 18January, 2013 Report Share Posted 18January, 2013 Option-490 "Sound package" 10 speaker system. There you go. That explains it. I think your car is a very early Aussie delivery but at some stage I would say that Porsche Australia (Whoever had the rights then) chose to make the M490 option standard. Mate I reckon you could almost lay claim to one of the first 993 to be delivered Down Under!!!!!! Wonder if anyone knows when they first arrived here?

ByronBayChris Posted 18January, 2013 Report Share Posted 18January, 2013 I think I will have to quote 'one of the original 993 delivered to Australia.' if ever I need to sell it on carsales..... I gather pcm or Sydney would have full records of deliveries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris-p Posted 18January, 2013 Report Share Posted 18January, 2013 That's great info on your car Chris. Used to be able to get it from a vin decoder that was online but the company that has it blocked it so its for their customers only. Jason Pascoe at Porsche cars Australia in Victoria parade will probably be able to tell you when it was delivered and at what stage etc of the model cycle.
