Congrats,that's gonna be one nice 911! Make sure to post pics of her when she arrives. That cabin looks great in that color.

 

Thanks for all the great advice and opinion! I'll definitely post pics on arrival but it's going to be a long 3 months.

 

This is a little off topic, but I can't find a decent thread... c4s or turbo in snow?! I'm looking for a new daily driver; I live in the Lake Tahoe area (300+ inches of snow/yr), so I need awd (don't worry, I have a 4runner for when it gets really deep!). I'm really torn between the c4s and turbo. I've always loved NA, but something about all that low-end torque, and the overall numbers of the Turbo gets me all giddy. My main consideration is snow perfomance/safety; of course, no matter what, the car will be wearing winter tires for the season. I wonder if Turbo lag is a concern? I like the idea of a C4S having more precise throttle response, for hairy situations...but, what of the Turbo's manners? I am in the early stages of deciding; would like to get the car this summer. Looking at '07-'08 997s. Will be driving both before I buy of course, but interested to know what anyone thinks.

 

Go Turbo.. they both have similar clearance and AWD (although I think the C4S's is 50/50 split whereas the turbo's is not). I drive my in the snow sometimes and its awesome.

 

The C4S would be the better choice for extreme snow conditions. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dFo0...layer_embedded

 

yrralis1- Thanks very much for the youtube link. Why is the 4S a better candidate in more extreme snow conditions? Is it b/c the 4S in NA, or is it b/c of a difference between the 4S and Turbo's awd hardware?

 

Congrats--looking forward to the pics!

 

Just got a build completion date of June 16th. Dealer says car should be here approx 1 month after. So just in time for peak summer season!
