Hello all.
I am considering a 993 c2 or 4s versus an early 997 s.
These prices are closer than one might imagine.
Is the 993 experience that much more involved that it can overcome
a 10 year difference in reliability and performance.
anyones thoughts greatly appreciated.

What is all this people are saying about the 993 not being good for a DD, and not comfortable for long trips, and not ergonomic? I just finished a 1000 mile trip in mine from SF to San Diego and back, and the car handled it brilliantly. I never thought the ride was too harsh, it didn't tire me out, the seat position was fine, it was quiet, A/C worked great... Might be because I'm still running the stock suspension maybe?? 
I don't get it!

they are just saying the 997, being newer, is more "user friendly" than the 993.... personally I like the oddness of the air cooled cars and would rather drive it daily. But since this is all based on opinion the OP will need to decide for himself
