Drove a couple of them, really they just seemed like a less capable 996TT, less grunt, less grip, clunky pedals, disco-era interior, inefficient cooling system, less upward potential. And it doesn't drive like an old school Turbo either, I'd get a 964 3.6T WAY before a 993TT.
The ONLY two reasons it retains value better is:
1. Sheer production numbers - 1300 vs 8000 996TTs (compare against the 400 or so 964 3.6Ts for real rarity)
2. There's the legion of inefficient-cooling worshippers who insist Porsche sold their soul in 1999 and won't have anything newer

And, still dream of 993TT every time I see every single 993s on the road. 
Here's one article I found worth reading when I was comparing both. Also, don't forget 993TT is the last Porsche turbo to be hand assembled, just like current GT line.
