Personally I like 993's, TT's that is, I'm looking at one now in fact. Don't forget the na 993 has demons of it's own, far worse than the rms in the m96/7 motors. The m64 na engine is notorious for valve guide problems, usually a 7k fix. The fact that Porsche early on in the m96 series chose to replace motors with persistant rms fails is hardly a condemnation of the design, just a corporate decision based on dollars and cents.

In fact, I believe the opposite of your assertion is true. Most on this forum have a great deal of respect for the older cars and in fact many of us started out in old 911's (and still love them today). Additionally, most of the "bashing" comes from the other side (look to the moldy figs for your barbs, it sounds like you are already a card carrying member).

I'm not an "aircooled guy" or a "watercooled guy". I'm a Porsche guy!!

There are plenty 996TT's that are set up for drag racing that would smoke the aformentioned Evo.

Bob, I mean sptchoice, congrats - you successfully trolled 2 threads. Now it's time for you to troll the Ferrari forums. I hear there are Ford dealers selling some wicked Ferraris....
