If you take the 911, and you're driving at interstate speeds in 95 degree weather (and 90+ percent humidity) with the windows down, it will feel like there is a giant blowdryer on high aimed in the windows.
Then imagine what it will feel like if a thunderstorm comes up and you have to roll the windows up. Take the Benz. Or, go nuts and live on the edge.

Reading all these posts hasn't really helped me make up my mind, but I have certainly enjoyed reading them. A lot of good points and very entertaining, but the jury seems to be split. I think it's going to be a game-time decision.
Many thanks for the responses! -e.

Benz. 100 degrees is miserable w/o AC, add sun to it, it may even be harmful (heat stroke). If you have a cool shirt, sure, go for it!

this might not be what you want to hear,
BUT, sell the 911 and get a well set up 928 S4 or GT or GTS. Then take a 2400 mile trip ![]() ![]()

If new car buying is an option now, just get a 911 with working a/c = 964/993
