So Hello!

First post so I'd better make it pretty dam interesting.

I've been competing in uk drifting on and off for the last 4 years, and although its a massive passion, the cost of competing in D1GB has become a little bit to much to deal with. So time for a change. The Drift car is now 99.99% sold, and I'm lucky enough to be searching for a weekend/track car to get my fix.

I'm trying to find a RHD 968cs with the illusive M030 spec. I would like to spend around £13000 on a sub 100k miler. Any advice or recomendations would be great.

( so much for making it interesting )

Will

Cheers all.

Have read that thread, which was pretty useful. The 944 route is tempting but having experience of regular 944 turbo, I would rather leave forced induction on this one for the simular power from the cs lump. Also the resale value of M030 spec cs could work out a little better.

thanks again.

It is a difficult choice, the turbo is looking more and more atractive. It has struck me that the 968cs without M030 spec is a sport without aircon, electric windows and a sun roof!? It seems you would be paying a fair bit of cash for the cs badge. Having been looking around though the value of mo30 spec cs's is obvious due to how rare they are.

I guess I've got some thinking to do.

Good point.

I have considered this, but the bills and time to get the work done do add up. The most important aspects for me are the mo30 bits. Having been driving a heavily modified drift car on the road and track for the last three years, the thought of the standard 968 suspension, ARB's, and most importantly a rubish diff, make me feel like having a little bit of sick.

I know it wouldn't be quite that bad, but having spent so much time, effort, and money modifying my last car, I want the my next car to be the way I want it in standard form - engineered that way. If that makes any sense.

(I can feel the turbo drawing me in)
