I'm thinking of trading up looking for thoughts
 
I'm thinking of either going to a 03 / 04 996TT or 997S with areo kit. I sill like the look of the 996 better but for about the same money I can get a fairly new if not new 997S. I have not driven a TT yet but I did test drive a 06 997S with an areo kit last weekend, pretty impressive. Just wanted thoughts from anyone who may have compaired both before.

Buy a 997S then put Sharky's engine in..LOL j/k
That;s a tough decision..

power= 996TT
value=997S
handling=even
mod addiction=996TT,LOL
features=997S
comfort=997S
prestige=996TT
Depreciation=996TT
ok 4 to 3,, 996TT won....... sorry i'm boredhilarious

go for the 997, you'll definetly enjoy the new look, since you already have a C4S, that looks similar to the turbo. But if you're looking for the hp and love the looks of your C4S than the turbo is the car for you...

my SC C2 was a blast, but the power a TT gives is a hole different ball game. I say go turbo!

I've always been a 911 purist, but just as there is coolant flowing through my heads today, attitudes change. I'd get the Cayman with the 3.8 L X-51 motor. It's on the cover of Excellence this month. Monster looks, awesome power, and the motor is in the right place.

Maybe someday someone will TT one of those?? At that point my right arm would go on sale.
