Default 928 over 968-for the money

Yeah, yummybud you can pick up 928's for decent price(similar to 968's in some cases) but you also acquire much more maintenance(and the costs associated with that maintenance).(Actually I have had my 968 for almost 2 yrs and done next to nothing maintenance wise other than change the oil and drive it all over the place).Love 928's also and wouldn't rule out owning one of those some day(especially the later model S4's or the GTS).

[QUOTE=FRporscheman]Yummybud, dude, why do you keep posting twice in a row? Every time I see you post, it's always 2 consecutive posts. That's a cheap way to rack up the post count.

You only get one post count per thread no matter how many times you post to it.

I don't like the shape of the 968, but its definitely a much better car, Six speed is nice but I like the fact that you get it as a tiptronic I also like the fact that they're really scarce, I've never seen one on the road is South Africa - only at club events or at dealers on the floor. They tend to stay for sale around here for very long. I have often see them stand on the floor for 6 to 12 months while the 944 sell very quickly. I also think the S2 is much better value for money.

If I ever buy a 968 it would be the tiptronic cab.

Actually, Bentley made 4-cylinders that made the 3.0L look puny. Of course, that was way back in the day, but that's no reason to overlook it.
