Way out of line. I was recently thinking about a 996TT and found plenty of turbos around the $40 to $45K price with low mileage.
My advice is drive one. I did and after 20 seconds took it back to the dealer with a no thanks. I did not like the car in every facet.
I bought a 2006 997S and love it. I sold my 1997 993 for what the 997S cost. And to the purist out there please don't talk to me about the last air cooled Porsche. My 997s has an AC that actually keeps me cool in Fresno. When I take it skiing the heated seats are likely to keep my ass warm, while listening to my Bose surround sound system. My 993 never did that. Others will say oh but the 993 was hand built. Your right but I'd rather have a robot build my cars with the precision no human could duplicate.
I really thought I would regret selling the 993 and did shed a tear when it rolled away. For my needs the 997S is a far better car against the 993 & 996 models as a daily driver, not on the track.
I will agree with everyone else and say the 993 was a special car and the sexiest Porsche ever made aside from the Carrera GT & GT2 & GT3 cars.
