May need to sell the turbo

As my itch to get back into a racing car or a dedicated track car has turned into a fever I must sell something to make room. It's either sell the 996TT or my 930. Seems the 996TT is the easy choice even though I love this beast. I really have enjoyed this car more than just about any other I have owned despite its bad rap. I will keep the forum posted for details when/if I pull the trigger. This is a toughy.

if you sell the TT now, and later on down the road you really miss having one, you could then sell the 930, buy a TT and then have enough left over to put some serious power mods on it!

I don't drive my 930 too much. It is very low mileage (under 23k) so I try to take it out but not nearly as much as I drive my 996TT. That's why this is a tough choice. I really love my 996TT and I use it a bit but the 930 is far more special and a different experience. I love having them both. Wish I had a 3 car garage. Or more....

Nice point. My search had 60 less cars and all were priced higher. That is good news.
