    Porschepreciation In Black 993 and 997

    Just for an endorphin rush: Here's 69BN's stunning 993 compared to 997 from fellow Porschephile on another board.

    Niiiiice, huh? Makes me think I got the wrong color! Maybe the wrong year.

    Two different cars completely. The driving experience is totally different, IMHO. I have a 997S, and have driven a 993S and I love them both for the differences. If I had to do it all over, I'd really look into a 993 Turbo. Awesome car!

    HaHa! I just noticed the back- and foregrounds of each photo are almost the same. It's like they've been "updated" too. Life is somethin', huh?

    993's turn my head more often than 997's. A 993 widebody looks sooooo good. and the electronics being much more simple is appealing enough to make 993's cars to keep for a very long time...thinking of changing and customizing interior, suspension, & audio.

    As pretty as that 993 is, they look so much better with Euro bumpers (no bumperettes and long clear wrap-around directional lights)
