Sure, they'll trounce any older 911 in performance. But I'm not driving on the track every day. And would you believe my 993's a/c still blows ice cold after 14 yrs. and never once been serviced?

Actually, my 964 is classed in PCA Club Racing with early 996 cars so with a good driver it's a fair fight. I just came back from Watkins Glen and had no problem keeping up with the 996's on the track, and that is a horsepower track, granted, my car is almost 600lbs lighter :-)
