#2047 of 2050 Re: 993 or a 997? [bcd17] by ksccts Aug 31, 2009 (9:05 am)
Replying to: bcd17 (Aug 31, 2009 8:30 am) As a 997 owner, I may be a bit biased but to me there is no comparison. As commonly stated, I would buy the newest Porsche you can afford. 997 is light years ahead of the 993 with one exception...aura of air cooled engine. I would definitely buy the 997.

Replying to: ksccts (Aug 31, 2009 9:05 am) I'd agree, unless you are a fanatic and must have the "feel" of the 993----and there is a difference in feel, most definitely, from a 997.   I'm not sure a 993 is any more expensive to maintain---I'd guess the other way 'round.
#2049 of 2050 I made the move - now the questions????? by casaleenie Dec 07, 2009 (12:48 pm)
just bought a new 2009 911 S auto, chrono, plus some extras that I never would have ordered (bose upgrade,heated seats, heated steering wheel, bluetooth, etc.and some that were not included in the package that I would have wanted (sport exhaust) The S package is a nice plus..   Had 450 milea on it but sold as new never titled.. Not sure that I like the fact that I don't know how it was driven as a demo by several or many shoppers but it seems fine. Oil usage is extreme but within limits posted in manual. Not sure that it was babied during the"break-in period and it will always remain an unknown. it is what it is but I figure it's one hell of a car and will survive the beat-in period...   Sports Crono was a must especially with the PDK trans... I've found out that it requires a bit of time to get good with it.... I think that it's pretty intuitive with the shifting paddles but you have to be careful not to hit the darn things by accident.   Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it...   I'd appreciate any info you're willing to share...   Thanks Replies to this message: nyccarguy (Dec 07, 2009 8:36 pm)
