[wee man]

i mean turbo model like 993 p11 turbo or 996 911 turbo!!!!

No kidding, I knew what Wee was talking about. This is the Porsche forum after all, use your heads. 996 is really cool and modern. But I would still pick the old school 993. Gotta have that air-cooled, big winged wonder!

we all forget that aircooling had issues. It may have been a neat concept, but there was a reason they stopped using it. Turbos are known to heat engines up a lot. The 996 is so sexy and seductive. I think 50 years from now, the 996 will be thought of as the greatest of the 911s of this era.

[LateNightCable]

Air-cooling lasted on the 911 until 1996 or '97. So there were no issues that could not be overcome. Porsche switched to liquid cooling because they were antsy for something new.

996 is a very good looking, and capable car, but it's just a new 911. 993 carries the true 911 bloodline that the 996 simply mimics well.

[wee man]

Dont Forget the 930 and 964 i would go for the 964 out of these 2

89. only year of 5 speed single turbo. timeless classic looks. goes like a rocket.

I always thought the 1992 Turbo was a sweet little deal. " Sweet little deal ", I don't even talk like that .
