911 vs. 993
Okay, so I'm oscillating with my choices here. Pros/cons to both.

For Targas only since that's what I'm looking for:

The 911 1987-89 G50:
Cons:
Non-power brakes, steering
No ABS
Not as safe as 993
AC sometimes doesn't work
Valve guide issues

Pros:
Classic looks
Less $ than the 993
Has "real" targa top

The 993 1995-97
Cons:
Not as classic looking
More expensive
Targa more like a large sunroof
Some have carbon buildup issues

Pros:
Safer
ABS
Power assisted steering and brakes

I really like the looks of the 911 better, but safety is a big factor (have a daughter to think of) along with power assisted features. For me, the 911's heavy clutch, brakes, and steering will fatigue me after awhile I fear. I just might get tired driving. I know some like the classic feel of the road and the rawness of the 911, but I'd rather be more comfortable.

Uhhh, did I mention I like the 911 classic looks though...?
