Default Keep or sell 991.1 C4S

Have a 2018 TTS on order, due Nov/Dec. and am currently driving a 991.1 C4S SPASM which is a great car. I was planning on giving it up, selling or trading, when the TTS comes in but was feeling a little regret about it recently. Anyone also keeping an NA alongside their TT? I would need to find nearby storage as my garage is too small for them both at the same time.

I kept my 2012 Vette (with its good old North American V8) when I got my 2017 TTS. I realized that, like you, I really enjoyed the car and simply didn't want to give it up. Yes, the TTS is far, far better in almost every way (not all), and if I had to choose one it would be the TTS without hesitation -- but I still love the Vette, didn't have to choose between them and went with my feelings. If I had a one car garage (instead of two with plenty of driveway), I probably would have sold the Vette, since I wouldn't want to leave it outside all the time. I hope you can find a way to keep them both.

I also kept my vette...2009 ZR1 with 10k miles in very premium condition...we literally drive it to church mostly every week ...My DD is an ML63 but the TTS gets driven every day during the summer in dry weather..never winter

Funny you should ask. We were planning on selling our 991 C4S when our new .2 Turbo S arrived in June, but we decided to keep both. My wife is now using the C4S as her daily driver, and I use the Turbo S as my daily driver.

The only time I drive the C4S now is to fill up the gas tank for her once a week, but it is still a blast to drive. They are side by side in the garage. My vote is to keep the C4S !

I think I would consider keeping it if it is a manual, just because the driving experience would be that much different. If it is PDK, I don't know. If you don't need the money, of course keep both if you feel you may regret parting with it. You can always sell it later. I love my 991 turbo, but really miss the manual driving experience. I am actually looking for a 997 manual.
