I had a 993 for about 4 years, sold it, and came back to a 3.2. They are very different animals.

The 993 has "real" air conditioning which was its strong point and arguably was better looking.

The 3.2 provides a more involving driving experience and is a friendlier car to work on, if that is a consideration. And they don't have the aggravating SAI issues that the '96-98 993's do. If I bought another 993, it would be a 1995 model.

Being a long-time Porsche owner (38+ years), my observation is that the newer the Porsche, the "softer" it is. GT3's being the exception. I'd LOVE to have one of those!
