997 as daily driver--experience/opinions?
hi folks,
interested in hearing from folks who use their 997 as a daily driver. i'm trying to simplify my life and go down to two cars (maybe ending up with our current audi A4 avant and a 997). no kids but two fairly large dogs (german wire-haired pointers...). i have a 996 C4 as a third car currently (and snow tires/wheels). i do a lot of fairly long highway drives in the northeast US on a regular basis. will i end up hating the 997 and find it too confining day-in-day-out? i also ski and cycle which i'm thinking that i can handle easily with racks. my thought is that upgrading to a more recent 997 will give me a few more creature comforts (e.g., nav, sat radio, etc.) and tip or PDK ease--can't take lurching around urban traffic in a 6MT anymore... love to hear folks opinion/experience--as well as accompanying photos of dirty, well-used 997s as evidence of practical use :-)
thanks!
