Servus, since I now have to give the final configuration and I am not really further in the decision S vs. S diesel, the friendly person gave me an S diesel with nice equipment over the weekend. He said at 21″ I absolutely should take the air suspension. Now the part also has the air suspension and it is certainly nice to put the 1.5cm deeper, but I feel a significant comfort advantage there, in contrast to the “only” PASM, somehow not. the comfort mode chosen, the car seems to me even rather spongy, but that he, let’s say, irons out floor waves or the like I could not say. Is there somewhere a “magic button” that I did not find? If that still goes to who else or I just spin there, after the praise hymns somehow we say something else or more expected. I like the Sport Plus mode anyway, it then everything seems somehow tighter, tenser and more direct. Somehow the steam is enough, but enthusiasm remains absolutely. Somehow solid, but that can be my current verkac…ter Lancia theme with 550nm torque too and that costs not even half. VG Timo

Hello, I am playing very much with the idea of fulfilling a long cherished dream and getting myself a classic 911er. Since I have only dreamed of it so far, I am dependent on expert opinions – especially with regard to an acceptable price. I have a special eye on it (pictures attached). I would be very pleased if one (or more) of you would give me your opinion about this car and what you think is a suitable one. Price is. I have received the following information about the car from the current owner: Porsche 911 S First registration 07/1977 US model 2.7 liter engine with 175 hp fully galvanized chrome model no rust gap dimensions impeccable 5-speed transmission air conditioning heat exchanger stainless steel new chain tensioner new chassis (about 800 km old) new tires (about 3,000 km old) original varnish perfect motor compression What makes me a bit stunned about the car is the combination 911 S, Bj 1977 and the machine with the 175 HP engine. For me somehow doesn’t sound like matching numbers. Basically, I wouldn’t care if this is taken into account in the price. Well, I’ll be surprised what the experts here mean about it. Best regards Putzki

Hello together, so now it should become a Porsche – but only which one? Actually, the 997 4S was always my dream but first I concentrated on the current Cayman S, because my budget is limited to about 60,000,- +/- 3,000,- and I thought that I would get a 997 for it anyway. But now I have turned my gaze towards 997 and had to realize that there are around 60,000 – 65,000 already 997 S even 4S. The current Cayman S I am ready My thoughts now go there: 1.) I am in love with technology and therefore I wonder if it is not wiser to take the Cayman S with current technology (direct injection) instead of the old 997 with the outdated engine technology 2.) Economic face points I do not want to leave out and I also think they speak for the Cayman S (consumption, insurance, maintenance, tyres) 3. 4) The 997 is just my dream car and in the version 4S it looks for me also the most beautiful of all (I know this is a matter of taste and should not be discussed here too) 5.) another consideration is to wait until mid-2010, because then you get the current 997 FL I think already for 63,000,-. And the 10hp between the old 9 97 S and the current 997 don’t make the roast fat – right??? My question is now, is the technical progress that has entered into the new Cayman so that it would not be wise to buy an old 997? Three alternatives arise from my considerations now: A.) I buy a current Cayman (320 hp) B.) I buy an old 997 S (355 hp) C. I wait until mid-2010 and buy a current 997 (345 hp) Which of the three alternatives would you choose? (who would you choose?) n possible with justification) Greetings The Commander
