Turbo look doesn't really interest me unless it's otherwise the right car. I kinda like the Carrera non-turbo look as well or better and am not sure that the additional premiums the turbo look cars command would be worth it to me in total, despite their added collectability.

Right now I'm looking at basically 2 cars, one regular 1989 911 in a brown metallic color I'm not quite sure about but great condition overall and much closer to me, and one 1989 25th anniversary silver 911 much further away, in as of yet uncertain condition, but with fewer miles and a much higher asking price.

Both appear to be in great shape, but I've not seen either in person yet. The first car is enthusiast owned and I've talked enough with the owner to know that it's in really good shape. Not sure if the owner of the other is really a Porsche or car enthusiast and if he's really done everything he should to care for the car despite the low miles, although it looks great in the pictures I've seen.
