Considering two porsches - am i mad?

[verysideways]

All this talk about the 997tt and the RUF RCT Evo (okay, i brought up the RUF admittedly) has got me thinking. Since i sold the 993tt and am back in a 993C2 as my daily driver, there's nothing stopping me from getting a "weekend toy".

Am i mad to consider an RCT Evo, or its inexpensive cousin the 965, as a 'weekender' when i drive a 993 every day?

I'd be thinking along the lines of a lhd 3.3, strip some weight out of it, put a 1 bar spring on it, and go from there...

no Prescott jokes please

Ric,
I turned down the job - i couldn't bring myself to buy a eurobox that was less than 5 years old

Wouldn't want my 993 living outside even if it's used every day, so i need to find another garage i think. A 965 under a car cover outside my house isn't subtle...

You're a very bad influence - but why aren't you coming to BTaP you lazy italian layabout?

Why not consider modifying your existing 993 and create your ideal car?

Because i've had a 993tt and it just didn't get to me like the n/a cars do, but i still have a hankering for that RCT (ahem!).
Got any pics of yours??? Pretty please?

But the n/a 993 is my daily driver and is perfect for that, a single large turbo on an older 911 sounds like heaps of fun

I've accepted that going fast and having fun have absolutely nothing to do with each other at all...

Mac - any pics of yours?
