Read evidence and context
Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.
Discussions that contain suggestions

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
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.

Wife and I purchased a 2001 996 turbo today. 47k miles. Car is immaculate. Interior looks and smells brand new. Just a few rock chips on the front, otherwise, paint is immaculate. Lots of reading and learning to do. Still reading up on the specs, etc.
We basically bought this in anticipation of its value going up in the next 10 years or so (kinda like a painting or raw land). I convinced her by stating how the 993 Turbo is worth twice that of a 996 Turbo now and that the 996 Turbo is next to appreciate. I hope I'm right. If this goes up as I predicted, she might let me get a red Ferrari next as the this-will-go-up-in-value-next. Wish me luck.
I like the 996TT and plan on picking one up later this year. However, buying one in hopes of appreciation is a crap shoot.
There were a total of
1909
993TT's built during the total production run (not including the S model)
There were
5324
996TT's built in 2001 ALONE! (total of 16,965 coupes excluding cabriolets and other variants)
It's all about the numbers and desirability.....which an air cooled turbo wins hands down.
So, enjoy your car but don't make it part of your retirement plan!
