PH mates,
I need your expertise and opinions on these two vehicles.

I know they are madly expensive by UK standards but thats Australia for you.
I intend to keep the car for a year or so just to fulfill an ambition and would like to minimise my loss if possible.
That said my priority is the right car.
Of the two above, manual no sports Chrono or cab with sports chorno?
What do you think?
Another factor is location. The cab is in Perth, 4500km away and will cost me about $6000 dollars to put on my drive whereas the coupe is local and drive away so no extra costs on top of my negotiated price.
Is sports chrono worth the money generally?
Help please.


SEE YA

A coupe will be easier to sell later on.

Most people, want a cab for the summer months.
Certain country's also have more sun than others.
The 911 lines suit a coupe better IMO.

Out of those 2, go for the one which you Ike better spec wise, colour, wheels etc

I happen to like the look of that cab better (not because it's a cab tho) , but that's just me

Oddly enough, having acab in Queensland is the only thing that puts me off.
35 degrees on my noggin would mean wearing a hat and I dont like hats!
Admittedly Im drwn towards the cab, I think its a better buy than the coupe.
Taking the coupe out tomorrow so might be closer to a decision.

I'd go coupe normally but don't like that one

I have a Turbo Cab in Aus (NSW) and weather is perfect for it now

I won't have the roof down all summer but at least the options there when I need it
