Having previously owned a 3.2 Carrera, 964 Turbo 2, '72 model year 1971 2.4T, 993 Carrera & 996 Turbo (as well as my Wife's swb 1968 911L), we've just taken the plunge on an '06 997.1 Carrera 3.6.
I had always previously avoided the M96/M97 engined cars due to all the horror stories but a very inclusive 2-year warranty with high single claim limit gave me the confidence to buy and thus far it's great to be back.
We were sorely tempted by some well optioned cars but in the end decided that 18" wheels and non-PASM suspension would give us the closest experience to our previous cars and I'm already looking forward to a Goodwood trackday following a planned visit to Centre Gravity at the end of next week.
Just thought I'd say hi!
