Ohh I thought you just meant repairs, not upgrades

So far I've purchased a Lindsey Racing Boost Enhancer and an upgraded BOV. There will be more coming soon ...

As far as upkeep costs, I would imagine a 993's parts would be pricier... not sure how much more/less reliable they would be.

I dunno, seems risky. I would much rather buy a great-condition car with a full service history for top dollar.

How's the S2 running, BTW?

I think the standard, 2 wheel drive, non turbo, no rear spoiler 993 is possibly the best looking car in the world. It just looks like it is what it is. The turbos are still way to expensive to afford. They always will be. the 993TT is not just another 911 turbo, those things are supercars.
