3.6 or 3.3

[Guest]

As some of you will be aware I will be looking to get a Turbo 2 in the new year. Ive been doing preliminary digging and seeing what available on the market and at what prices. My question is ... is it worth spending the extra premium asked for on the 3.6's. This is purely from a "rarity / holding value" point of view, I realise there is little difference in performance. Ive seen some really nice low mileage 3.3's and theyre about £4000 - £6000 cheaper than the 3.6 with approx the same mileage. Although I could get a slightly higher mileage 3.6 for roughly the same money as low mileage 3.3's. I know this is a subjective question but just wanted a feel for the guys that know []

Cheers Dale

If it's rarity - and associated residuals - that you're after, then you cannot go far wrong with a RHD 964 Turbo 3.6.
Have fun looking

So it will be worth spending the extra then (If I find one). I will be using the car everyday for work etc, but only do about 5-6000 miles a year in any case

The 3.6 is the ultimate single turbo car.
Of course there were better limited editions of the 3.6 as well.

If you buy a 3.3 you might end up wishing you had bought a 3.6 if you can afford to buy one.

I had a low milage turbo 3.3 and thought it was good until I swapped for a slate gray 3.6 speedlines etc..It was the nuts!!
If you can , go straight for the 3.6 you'l not regret it.

They had to produce the 360BHP 3.6 to handle the massive fat and give tha car a bit more ooomph original 3.3 930 quicker.........BUT BUT THE 965 TURBO S if you are serious built on 964 3.8RSR lightweight shell Weissach....parts from the motorsport bin 3.3 lumps surplus gave... 381 BHP ......you became the passenger..........fantastic car true lightweight...........
