Jeez what i regret selling my 930 Turbo since it riced about $14000 within a year after i sold it. It been a few years since my last Porsche 911 and i have been thinking that i might go for a Porsche 996 Turbo (of the 996 series i am only intersted in the 996 Turbo) Or a 997.1 Carrere 4, 997.1 Carrera 4S or a 997.1 Carrera Turbo but i think the 997.2 will be to much money. One more thing is that i really do not want to buy a manual car so it is tiptronic we are talking about or PDK if i go for an 997.2 Carrera 4S even if i think it is to much money to spend on a car at the moment. First about the 996 Turbo. Any here that think this is a future Classic? The Mezger engine in the Turbo is a safe bet when it comes to engines is it not? The engine used in the 997.1 is prone to IMS bearing issues and bore score from what i have read. One more thing about the tiptronic which is the shift buttons i really dislike so is it possible to put on a newer 3 spoke steering wheel with paddle shifters and the round airbag? Please give me some advice here on which car to go for since i have not been in the Porsche game for a long, long time The same goes for the steering wheel in post 2. Below is a picture of 3, 996 Turbo`s in the colours i would prefer. The most easy colour to get is black.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
