I like the 964 turbo 3.6, last of the rwd air-cooled turbos (with the exception of the 993 GT2). Those 3-piece Speedline wheels and the old school wide hips bodywork really appeal to me.

Fa sho...I like 968's as well, while we're on the subject of "96x" Porsches.

I would love to find an RSA however just can't part with 40g's for a clean example so I'm loking for a 93' C2. to play around with. 993s are great but the older the porsche the more I like it for some reason???

I'm personally a huge fan of the 356. Different reasons of course, but as Pcars go there is something about a 56-58 356 that absolutely drives me wild.

If you own a s2000 then I would say go for a RSA. I have driven a RSA, a 964 turbo, and a s2000. I think you will be disappointed on the 964 C2. I base this on the fact that i liked the RSA just a bit more than the stock s2000. The RSA was a Club racing car - 2750 lbs with ballast etc etc.

Agreed. It was such a simple thing even back then, but it's still irresistible even now. So is the old 550, for that matter.

For me, any Porsche is good, but if I'm buying a 911, it's gotta be a 993. 993s are so gorgeous it hurts to look at 'em.

I like them a lot. Of course, I like most Porsches.
