There are plenty of the younger generation that absolutely love the air cooled 911’s. It seems the primary draw is the late 70’s through the 993 with the wide bodies getting lots of the attention. Obviously there’s love for the new stuff, primarily the GT cars.

If air cooled prices hadn’t skyrocketed over the past 10 years I’m confident more of the 30 something’s would own these cars now. Pricing is definitely a barrier to entry.

As far as performance being underwhelming, if anyone has an opportunity to really drive these cars the way they were meant to be driven on the back roads and canyons I seriously doubt they would be underwhelmed. While the performance won’t come close to the new 911’s there’s absolutely no doubt the experience will be insanely engaging and if they get it right it will be very rewarding. I’m always shocked with how fast I can go in the 964 once I got the suspension set up correctly.
