Which one would you go for?

a 911 turbo tip 997.1 or 911 997.2 C2S pdk?

 

Turbo

 

Turbo!

 

Welcome to 6speed, you’ll find a lot of useful information here!

Both are great cars…awesome to have the opportunity to choose.

<O</O
What features are must haves for you?

<O</O
Seems automatic/automated manual is a preference…while the PDK transmission is newer and better in most people’s opinion, the tip (tiptronic S) is also a very solid transmission. As you may know, there are several interior updates with the .2 such as ventilated seats, touch screen nav, Bluetooth, etc…

Test drive both and get the feel for the vehicles. The turbo tip is a very nice setup…add an exhaust and ECU tune and this ride is tough to beat…

The engine in the .1 turbo is one of the best Porsche has designed. Search around on here and you find plenty of details.

In the end I would go with what’s going to make you happier…might sound lame but it’s your car.

<O</O
Here are some things that stood out to me when I made the decision:
<O</O
· Turbo power is awesome and combined in an all-wheel drive package
· The wide-body was a must have
· Prefer the body panels and turbo inlets
· Less turbos driving around town…a little more unique IMO
· Rock solid engine (refer back to engine search)
· Mod capabilities
· So fun to drive…and trust me…has nothing to do with the creature comforts
· It’s not my daily driver…important to mention…not because it can’t be just not what I use it for

 

I'd pick the C2S . The PDK blows away the tiptronic so badly that it is like an achilles heel of yoir two choices . Had you suggested a manual Turbo then the decision is easier . Besides the C2S has a lot of great daily driving features . It has good front end clearance , great low end punch , corners with nimble agility , and calls a lot less negative attention by vandals or theives because it's understated .

 

I would always go for the Turbo, nothing can beat the spooling sounds of the turbos.

 

thanks guys for all your help..will test drive them both and see. This is a great forum.
