The 964 is an awesome car and after having owned one and several older 911s, I prefer the 964. Drives better, handles better, steers better, better brakes, nose does not push as bad in wet, clutch...

Oh my. That is so beautiful. The thing about the little spider though is that my youngest daughter went with me 2 years ago to pick up a 911 in Philadelphia. They had one there and my...

What is a 550 replica like, thinking about getting one

Anyone driven a 550 replica. I am thinking about the Beck and I also saw one that had a Porsche 356 motor. The Beck has about 155 hp and 0 - 60 in 5.2. What would be the output on the 356 motor. ...

No doubt about it. Older Ferraris and Lambos can be maintenance nightmares. That what you get with the handbuilts. One car can be reliable and the next car off the line will constantly be broken. ...

Vette a SUPER CAR, give me a break. A super car is about much more than mere numbers all of which the Vette is lacking.

Car and Driver loves Accords and cars that makes too much sense. Probably...

Corvette could not make an attractive car so they just copied the hell out of Ferrari. There are a few parts of the car that have the Ferrari styling cues, but overall, it is butt ugly. The front...

Salvage title says it all. There are some out there that will not care about possible resell issues, but very few will be buying for the purpose of keeping it forever. 911s get pretty big penalties...

That is really not too bad. I thought you would break $ 10k.

Okay, whatever. Think what you like. No surplus of 997s right when they first came out either so you missed the logic or the point. I have a Ferrari and have been tracking Ferrari prices for a...

You are right. Regardless, is it not rumored that the 997 GT3 motor will have a wet sump? If so, that former similarity will be gone. Is Porsche racing going to a wet sump? I thought I heard this...

If you compare part for part and technology, which engine do you think will be closer to the 996 GT3, GT2, or TT engine. Certainly, not a 3.2, 3.0 or older. I doubt seriously that the 993 3.6 has...

Depreciation of 996 has a lot more to do with the fact that Porsche built a huge number of 996s and basically flooded the market with them. The same thing is happening with Ferraris right now. They...

Haha, you refuse out of principle regardless as to merit which is fine.

Haha. You would pass up a free $ 90,000 car because you have chip on your shoulder about God knows what. Do you want Porsche to make the 911 exactly like it was in 1974, 1981, 1988 or 1990. I...

Why all the haten. I agree though about the Gamballa tail and the HREs are too much. HREs are too blingy for me. I have a 2001 Lambo 6.0 and love the doors and think they work even on a 996TT.
