993TT are very expensive to extract HP. Ask how I know.
580hp with bolt ons is pushing it. Rod bolts failures are very common!!!
Martin stick with the water-cooled for higher and easier performance upgrades. That said I will never trade a 993TT for a 996TT
LOL great answer Yea man its tempting but im loving the 996tt! There are only few 993tt's that look up to my standards for having a 10 year old car lol, Arling posted an atlas grey 993 that made my jaw drop

What a beautiful car the 993TT is!

I have fallen in LOVE with this car and therefore I am in the Market for one, if possible a S Version.

They are very hard to find over here in Europe and if there is one left they are extremly pricey

The thing is, that this will be my first car...
I have been admiring the M3CSL also for quite a long time. It is also a unique car but doesn't have that ultra uniqueness of a 993TT (or even greater difference of a S Version).

It is somewhat difficult to understand that a five year old car with ca. 50'000km is still more expensive than a new M3CSL.
I guess that is because it is a collectors (last air blown Porsche?), the new price was more than double than a used 993TT...

I guess that it would be stupid to ask what is more rational to buy, a M3CSL or an 993TT (please don't flame me).
Both cars have nothing to do with rationality, but I guess one is a more enthusiast if going the Porsche way.

Sorry for making this post so long...
What I actually wanted to ask is if anyone can point out some webpages where to find more info of the 993TT especially the S Version.
What do I have to look out for buying a 2nd hand one?
Are there any bugs in certain year models?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Hope to keep this section of the forum more alive from now one

Looking forward to discuss more with you fellow enthusiasts (and hopefully post pics soon)!

Drive safe!
