Do all 997.1 TT have Mezger?
I'm thinking about selling my '05 911 S and getting a turbo. I'm wanting to stay in the $75k range. I'm guessing that will get me a '07 or '08 or possibly a '09. Planning to go 6MT, as I've not been a fan of the Tip. Is there a reason to go with an '08 vs an '07? Seems to be more selection of '07s. It will be my daily driver.
thanks,
Mark

I believe that all 997.1 turbos utilize the Mezger/GT1 engine.
I'm not aware of any differences between an 2007 and a 2008 model. The cabriolet was introduced in the US as a 2008 model. There may have been new color options for 2008. The 2009 cars had a few additional options, like center lock wheels and ventilated seats. They also had PCM 3.0 as opposed to 2.1 in earlier 997.1 TT cars. I'm sure there are a few other options that I am forgetting.

Yep, get an '09 if you can find it in your range....PCM 3.0 and the classic block.
