Just looking for some thoughts. I'm in the market for a weekend car and will do around 5Kpa max. I keep flipping between a 996 turbo and a gen 2 997S both would be around the same price c 40K and probably similar mileage on them of 50K . The age doesn't really worry me as I know condition is the key however I've read an EVO article that suggests running costs for the turbo would be around £4.5K pa which seems high to me?
Whilst I'm not buying the car as an investment I really don't want to take a huge depreciation hit & the turbos seem to be holding well.
Id really appreciate any thoughts on the pros and cons against each car and also whether you feel running costs on the turbo would be significantly higher.
Many thanks
