As a Guy who has suffered Catastrophic Engine Failure (a cracked head) in my 2000 996 my comment is not so much about driving a 911 in the cold (I used to drive my '71S in Fargo winters on occasion) but qstion buying one at all. The price should be cheap enough to toss the car if te engine fails. One must not forget that the failure rate of this engine is btw 5 & 10%. If you want to argue it is not that high, what are you willing to accept? A 2% rate is still awful. A good engine R&R costs over $20K. I would actually consider buying a failed one and sending it to Jake Raby at "RED". jvm
