Last thing I want to do is re-ignite the IMS discussion. The larger bearing is better but it's still not failure-proof. Witness quite a few 997.1 ads "with new engines". And If I personally know not one but 2 people who had it blow up (not hearsay, not my friend's friend) in my small world of acquantances, then it's not fixed. By "magic bullet" I mean "any way of replacing that bearing without splitting the case" than clever engineers can come up with. When that happens, 997.1s will gain $10K of value overnight IMO (kinda overnight)! Witness the revenge of the 996, some later 996s are worth more than early 997s now... Anyway, moving along ;-) Still looking for a cheap 997.2 stick, in white ;-)
