Default Bought a Turbo Cabriolet

Hi Guys,

Not been on for a while.... However I bought a 996 Turbo Cabriolet. I still have my 964 and 993.

Sadly I think one of the air cooled ones will have to go

What do you guys think ? 993 or 964 ... Silly question to be asking on a 964 board.

Cheers

Sunil

Need more details on the 964 and the 993 in order to offer meaningful suggestions.

On the 964 board, there may be no meaningful suggestions! Let me think which one I'd go for....

congratulations on the 996TT. I actually drive my 964 cab more then I do the TT. They are both fun cars in their own way. I would keep which ever one was in the best condition as they are not that much different.

I think it's about aesthetics and not specifics. Given similar condition, of course.

I prefer the lines of the 964.

Pictures would help!

Sunil, hi, how are you? Well done, the 996 turbo cab is my dream car, enjoy it!! regarding the 964 and 993, I would probably keep the 964, it's a more 'pure' driving experience, faithfull to the original shape and profile, after all, you kept it when the 993 came along. Have fun. best wishes. Raymond (ex home of the bacon butty)

Sell them both and then buy a 930, think about how great your garage would look then, haha.

Sunil, hi, no longer there, politics and my personal sanity took over, taking it easy for the summer, spending long days polishing the car and running the kids around. e-mail me and I'll forward my address. Best wishes. R
