Gents/ladies,

I'm finally getting rid of my Tuscan (one drama too many) and will be getting a 911 instead.
/i have around £55k to spend and was looking at either a newish C4S or an older Turbo - (I want 4wd)

Any thoughts/guidance appreciated.
Scott

Get the turbo.


The C4S won't provide the sort of drama you are used to (the good kind i mean), and though you may love it for the first few weeks or months, i think you'd soon get bored and want the turbo.

IMHO

Plenty of exhaust options available, just not from Porsche themselves...Tubi, DMS plus several others do "sports" exhausts.

Sounds about right but take a look at the thread I've just started:
www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=222099&f=48&h=0

In late 2001 there were a few upgrades that you might/might not want to pay extra for.
