    Out with the old in with the new

    My old reliable, all weather 996 C4S is being traded in on a new 997 C4S, gonna finalize the deal thursday. I'll miss 'ole blue but I got the itch for a new car. I've gotten 40k reliable, all weather, daily driving, tracking miles out of her with zero problems. just hope the new one can live up to blue.

    Re: Out with the old in with the new

    It'll be great. You will miss the old car for about a week. Then, oddly, you don't even think about it again because the new one is said to be a much better 911.

    My buddy has a 993 and I have always loved the original layout of the 911 dash (instruments and heating and glove box etc). When I got my new one I didn't quite like the modern guage layout. NOW when I see his car I think the old dash looks dated. Design- really messes with your mind!

    Congratulations. Sounds like you're making a good move.

    Re: Out with the old in with the new

    What are your opinions between the style of the 9964s and the 997/4s?

    I love how the 996/4s looks very much like the 996tt. With the newer 997, they both look fairly similiar except for the slightly wider rear

    I think the 996 C4S looks way better, but the 997C4S looks good in it's own right. I'm just ready for a new car, got the itch, dealer made me an offer I couldn't refuse. Silver Star in Roslyn, ask for Jack Speigleman, he'll hook you up.
