Air cooled maybe ?

I'm looking to trade my boxster for a 84 911 3.2 carrera this week, can anyone tell me will I regret it?

regret, absolutely....................NOT. the air-cooled 911 is the only 911 IMO

Do it now

These are very durable engines when driven hard and maintained well! No need to upgrade. Maybe a chip and some exhaust to give it more sound and body. Drive and enjoy the ride. It's addictive!
