I'm sure you can find a lot of information by searching this site. There is a fairly significant difference between a late 80s 911 carrera and the early 90s carrera 2. The body styles are different and I suggest you settle on one style if it will make a difference to you. The C2 did have a problem with it's dual mass clutch, however I believe many were fixed under warranty. There was also a problem with some of the engines leaking oil. However, all in all, I'm sure you'd be able to find a reliable model. Basically, the c2s are a little more luxurious, heavier, and more powerful. The Carrera makes 217 hp and weighs 1250 kg. The C2 makes 250 hp and weighs 1350 kg. I prefer the late eighties models because they are lighter and I don't particularly like the normally aspirated c2 look.
