996 turbo

Hi members im am new to the forums but i am highly interested in a 05 996 turbo. I am currently driving an 06 s/c m3 but looking for something more exciting. Any major problems with the turbos? Is this a right move?

You're coming to a Porsche 996 Turbo forum and asking if it's a good move? Of course it's a good move, and much more "exciting" than an M3; unless you go to the M3 forum and ask the same question....and if you're set on an 05, the 05 Turbo S is the best deal going. I think it's going to hold its value better than the rest of the 01-05 series....although the whole Porsche market is depressed right now...great time to buy. If I was looking, I'd be looking at the 05 Turbo S.

I think most of the replies you'll get here are a little bias.

That being said, Yeah, it's a great move. You'll be so pleased you'll barf happy.
