Welcome to rennlist clinchy.....very nice looking 993 you have there! After you have enjoyed the honeymoon with this car, why don't you give us some of your impressions between the two different 911's?

More pix would be nice too....we love our car ****!.....LOL

Cheers,

I've owned both and can say that they are very close. The 993 really is a refinement of an already great car in many ways with improvement in performance and styling.

I have to agree with the big jump in refinement and grip, but the 964 is the car that scared the pants of me as I always thought I was on the the edge of my driving ability
I dont know if it was the the cat bypass and sports exhaust that made it feel so raw when it was at full fury

Maybee I have not used the 993 to its full potential as i have had it only 6 weeks

Oh and it has not stopped bloody raining since i picked it up

Both cars are gorgeous. What 'official' colors are they?
The slipery slope started about a week after buying the 964, its an illness dont you know !
993 is Ocean blue with Marble /sold originalwheels needed the space


964 was Baltic blue with Linen leather /cup 3 turbo reps
