You'll get a boatload of opinions, but you know damn well this is how it'll play out for you:

If you've got the notion, and the resources, to make the stretch to the Twin Turbo, and you've actually been pondering this for awhile, then.... You know the answer. It's already sunk its claws into you. Go Turbo. Some people have the wallets to buy a 997S now, and then trade-up later. If you've only got the wallet for a single punch, then make it the best you can throw. I love my 997S, and I'll be jealous, there's no getting around that.



100%. If you're already thinking Turbo and can only get one then wait. As for the point that it's too much car for a first Porsche I think it's more a matter of maturity and responsibility then past experience. The Turbo will be well behaved as long as you are. Then just take your time to acquire the skills to use the power. It's not like a sport bike that will hurt you without warning. Matter of fact the all wheel drive may even be safer in some situations.
