i just switched from sc lexus to porsche 03 -- i fu@#$ love it--rides, accellerates and looks 100 times better THAN my previous car.(any car ive had!)
BUY A PORSCHE YOU WONT REGRET THE RIDE QUALITY AND AMAZING INTERIOR DETAIL.
YOU WILL BE riding in truly unique exotic car.
PM me for info on mechanics -- unless you are planning to service the P. at MCL.

just spend more and get a 997.1.... 997.1 C2S is around 65k nowadays | ohh yeah...actually that's what a lot of people say...people hated 996's headlights
also a lot of Porsche fans prefer air-cooled engine

i never fancied the 996 either...
997 c2's i've seen them at about 55k or so...
then again... get a traditional air cooled 911: the 993. 993 C4S or C2S are sexy as fuck. http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/ctd/1215148693.html

A stock one isn't be a bad daily either, If you ignore the complete lack of interior styling 993s are a perfect 10. They sell for more than equivalent 996s and it'll be that way for the rest of eternity, just because they are that much more raw and amazing. But it's got a much more casual look to it than previous 911, and looks way better than 964.
993s never have unsatisfied drivers,

^it's probably a carrera and not a turbo for 35G's but meh a 997 carrera doesn't have much appeal, minimum would be a C2S

i've talked to a quite a few 993 owners that i bumped into at weissach.. and they all love their 993's. light mods and still plenty quick for a reliable daily driver.
993 C4S in arctic white is beautiful...
993 would hold its value the best: its the perfected air cooled 911 and would hold its value really really well (hell, you might even sell it for more than you bought it for)

My dad has a 1995 993 Carrera and has owned it since day one, First yellow one in vancouver.
Exhaust note is amazing without a cat, sounds like a muscle car but has a german piston mechanical noise as well.
Wait till economy gets better these cars are gonna be worth some good money.

Amazing interior detail! Lol since thats Marco's favorite response to most things performance related, how about you post some of these amazing interior details to WOW us with how amazing and justified porsche interiors are since they make the most profit per car sold of *ANY* manufacturer bar none.
Keep in mind this is what your paying for
Porsche earns an average profit of $28,000 per vehicle sold. What this means is that with each Carrera that rolls off the lot, they have enough money to buy a couple of Pontiacs of their own.
That $28,000 figure “dwarfs the per-car earnings of virtually any other automaker.” By comparison, BMW makes about $3,200 per car, whereas Audi gets about $1,580. When you start looking at higher volume vehicles, the figure drops even further, with Chrysler only making $900 and VW netting $400. Quote:
