Hello everybody,

Ive decided to go for a classic Porsche as my next track/weekend car and I want to spend around £50k on it. From what Ive read the 964 and 993 handle about the same once fully prepared but not much info on the SC (probably my favorite looking one). My first question is how would a fully prepared SC handle compared to the others.

2. I know this comment probably wont go down well with the enthusiasts here but <300 bhp just wont do. How much max power can the 3.0 in the SC produce keeping it NA (what about the 964,993)

and lastly; I suppose it would make more economical sense to buy an already prepared car, other than porscheclubmotorsport.co.uk and the usual car sale sites, where can I find one.

Thanks,

I forgot about racecarsdirect - thanks.

The 3.0 RS replica is such a beast, shame its out of budget grumpy that rsr replica looks pretty interesting though. Private sale from south africa seems like a hastle though.

The shell for 21300 pounds seems expensive to me.

Thanks for your post. Can you not replace the torsion bar cars setup with modern day coilovers?
