Posted this in the turbo thread but .....

Always wanted it now I have it
In July of 2005 when I purchased my first Porsche it was either a 996 turbo cab or a 997s cab. I went with the 997s because the 996 turbo just seemed old technology. So for the past 4 years I have done everything to make my 997S that "special" car for me including supercharging it. And ... while it was a great ride, it wasnt that Turbo that I wanted.

So after doing a week of detailed research, I woke up this morning, and purchased a 2009 997 Turbo cab at 25K under sticker. Black on Black. I will be bringing it back for some mods on Monday, but I now have my Turbo cab for almost the same price I paid for my "built" my my05 997S.

I guess its all about timing. So now I get to move over to the Turbo thread but Ill still vist

Thanks for all the advise

Pics to follow

I have seen both sides and like them both . Each has strong suits . Enjoy your new car and you'll see that with mods it can become an entirely new machine.
