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.

Fairly new to Porsches, although I've wanted one since I rode in my friend's 1967 911 in Germany. Quick question: can you give me your thoughts on purchasing a pristine 997.2 vs. purchasing a pristine, though more expensive, 991? Both are C2S, configured identically. Thanks. Hope to continue in the forum as an owner...
have you driven both of them? I personally would buy a 997.2
I have a 997.2 GTS. I have test driven 991s several times and I have had one as a service loaner. In my opinion the answer revolves around what you want. If you want a more luxurious, technologically updated and comfortable Grand Tourer (which still sports legitimate sports car bones) then the 991. If you want a car that retains a lot of the traditional 911 feel with hydraulic steering, a real handbrake, a shorter wheelbase and more engaging (to me) driving feel then choose a 997.2 although they are becoming harder to find these days due to the relatively low production numbers due to the financial crisis (which hit exactly when the 997.2 launched). BTW I am also local in Cary.
