you need to check out the video to show how I get all five in as I don’t have a pic, but I pull the three cars in diagonally and the bay where the black C4S sits is extended. I have it back to back with a 98 wrangler. For winter storage (like in the video) I just turn two of the 993s sideways in one garage space. House is in the mountains so the Jeep lives outside in the summer.

Very nice! You have great taste in both cars, and colors.
That's the biggest 3 car garage I've ever seen though. I think it probably goes more by square footage than how many doors you have![thumbup](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/thumbup.gif)

THIS IS NUTS! .. $230k GRAND FOR A PORSCHE 993 CARRERA 2 S .. TRADING THE C2 S COUPE IN EXCHANGE FOR A 992 CARRERA TURBO S, ISN'T A FAR FETCHED IDEA . . . . .
WHILE *DRIVING THE 90 MILE DENVER TO VAIL VILLAGE JUMP TODAY, A HIGHWAY PIGEON WAS NONE OTHER THAN A SILVER 992 CARRERA TURBO S COUPE... MAN,,, THAT 992 CARRERA TTS COUPE IS INSTANTANEOUSLY QUICK. .. LIFE IS SHORT. ...
EDIT: * WHILE DRIVING A BORROWED "06 TUNDRA V8 PICKUP WITH 238,999 MILES...
EDIT: http://www.porsche-code.com/PNGUNVA8 YEAH,,, $229,950. THAT, OUGHT TO COVER IT...

^ I don't think it's so nuts. I've driven newer cars and can't imagine I would like a 992 any better.
Honestly if I straight up traded my 993 for -any- 992 I would be filled with regret every time I looked back on it.

The 992 Turbo S is a phenomenal car and one of the best water cooled 911s Porsche has ever made, IMO. The power, grip, and overall dynamics of the car are awesome. The steering is surprisingly good and the car feels more like an old school 911 than the 991 ever did.
My '22 TTS is on the boat now and will be delivered next week (if the tracking website is to be believed).
That said, I wouldn't ever trade my 993 in for it. The cars are just so different. I would miss having the 993. One is not a replacement for the other: Apples and Oranges at this point.

Only you can answer what are the “must haves”
No modern car, no matter how competent, will feel like a 993. Nothing will have the steering feel or immediacy of a 993. Nothing will have that view outside the windshield or the tiny proportions. That smell…the way the door shuts. A million little things.
Conversely, no 993 will have the power, grip, dynamics and conveniences of a modern car. Not even close.
If you are interested in absolute, objective performance…or ***** to the wall dynamics and tracking — the GT3 (or a TTS, frankly) is an obvious choice. But you will have to give up the feel of the old cars.
I’ve tried and failed to make the “one car” plan work. I couldn’t make peace with the sacrifices, which is why I have two. I recognize this isn’t a practical option for most people…it is what it is. I’m just speaking to my experience.
If forced to make a choice - I’m keeping the 993, but I wouldn’t be happy about it.

'variety' - if you have the means, it's so choice.
