Yep I have to agree with you there. Pretty but not for me - too old and dated.

Just drive behind any 997 - narrow or wide bodied - and they look awsome. Just as good as any wide bodied 993!! [:(][:(]

I would have followed you if you could have got past on our recent drive from Chateau Impney to Blackpool. But then you only had 130 miles to wind it up and get past![;)]

Does look great in the pics. [:)]
 
Drove a 996 Turbo today to make my mind up, and felt a bit dated if im honest. Then drove a 3.6 Carrera 997 which drove okay. Indy told me the engine problems that have happened [and he know's of over 20 in total] have all happened to the 3.8 S which i the one i like.

Does anyone out they have a 3.6 997 with Cylinder scoring issues?
 
Thanks, i'll check that out.

Really really dont know what to do. Want a 997 S, and cant afford OPC prices really, and indy only does 6 months warranty...do i risk it, or reduce my risk with a 997 3.6?

Also, if im to get a OPC warranty, and get the 111 point check first, do Porsche normally find a long list of bits [and a big bill] they want doing first..you know, that old chesnut?

One last thing too, can quad S type tailpipes only be fitted to a standard Carrera, without replacing the rear bumper using the oval carrera exhaust cut out already in the rera bumper....has anyone done this at all?
 


As I said before your in the driving seat. Take you time. The last thing you want to do is buy and think 'If only'[8|]

Pleanty of choices with warranty - even Tesco do! Plus your Club card points[;)]

Enjoy your search.
