GT4
GT4 is indeed the one to have, atom and manual ... but with the new GT3 having 500 hp i can understand the need for an autobox.
I don't think i'll go for whatever P-car in the near future as it's financially not possible but at least i have enough friends letting me drive theirs (if their wife allows ;-) ..)
I have the impression since a couple of months that the 996 is getting more interest but i don't really like the looks of it ... now that you say it i have a friend who owns one 
... must ask for a testdrive as i never tried the 996.
... must ask for a testdrive as i never tried the 996.The Clio 172 was the phase II model of the Clio .. around 200 kilos lighter than my phase III so similar performance, after the 172 came the 182 (same model phase II) and the final edition was a 182 cup which is gaining value nowadays. The 182 has a trick suspension that you can rebuild easily, they say Renault lost money on every one they sold but not as much as on every Clio V6 they sold
My Clio RS stays there for as long as i enjoy it and that might be a pretty long time ..

As pure as it gets: Porsche 964
Small visit from a friend with his dad's 964. Some small changes like the RS-style mirrors and air-inlets in the front-bumper ... Lowered BILSTEIN suspension .... Lightweight RUF-wheels ... How pure and fluid can it get ? The black paint even makes it loo...
Oooo 964!
One of my favorite references from the 911 range and what a beautiful specimen your friend's father has, looks so Pure as you've said, maybe the 964 is the Purest Porsche? Thanks for the Great Pics. S
This one ...
.. gets used well but also receives the care it deserves, i noticed it had high-spec Michelin tires fitted. My friend told me his dad had just bought an extra 911 .. a 2.4 T from the 70ies .... a shame (for me at least) prices of nice classic cars are goi...
I agree with you....
Price are going really crazy for the 964s, its ok, I don't have to own everything I like, I can admire them just the same, tonight I saw a red Porsche 997 Turbo S Cabriolet with Black Interior, looked so beautiful and amazing but would I buy one right now...
Flashed at 265 Kilometers per Hour. Yes. ;)
It was twenty years ago... :) Best, Nicolas
My pleasure ... and ..
.. again .. more 911-content to come in the near future ;-) Bim
And when I read that the 991 2 will have only turbos....
I didn't bother having the water cooled engine evolution but the turbo is a clear no go for me. It is a beautiful 964, congratz to your friend and thanks for sharing! Cheers, Mark
GT3 and GT3 RS remain ..
.. the only non-turbo 911's now :-( They can't fit a turbo on a GT3 because then it becomes a GT2 :-) We can only guess where we're going too next .. electric turbos seem to be the future these days .. next to the electric cars off course. No matter how f...
Your analysis over the GT3 is clever :p
At least there will remain one atmo. When I saw the GT4 (Boxster based) with the manual gear box, I thought they were going back to roots (compared to the PDK-only GT3). If you wish to go for this 964 model, then you might need to move fast if there will ...

Re :
Well, I'm not sure hte 500hp needed an auto, they know how to make such nice manual gearboxes. The PDK is nice at the beginning as you feel like a F1 driver: but you have to push each gear far up in revs. Otherwise, when changing gears at 3000 or 5000, I ...
996
Several friends told me the 996 was/is a very enjoyable car to drive, a customer had a black 996 Turbo with black wheels ... now that was a nice looker ! I will ask my other 'friend' to hand me the keys of his black 996 .. i think it's a 3.4 as well. Fili...
Thanks Filip for reminding me that i still have to get a 964...
and yes, i cant believe taht those prices are still getting up, the cars are not that rare and they can be found easily so why this exageration. Dont misunderstand me, i am a big fan of the 911 as you know but since the 50 years it is getting out of contr...
Ah .. you still haven't got one ?
I still have some spare room in my barn .. but better hurry up as my 205 XS is nearly finished ... er drivable i meant ;-) Prices are stupidly crazy, but i just saw a friends order for the brand-new GT3 RS ... 198 K Euros ... isn't that a whole lot more t...
Seems like no one is thinking any more... All the GT3 rs are sold out
and being resold for 60-70000 above official prize. The GT3' s are being sold used more expensive than new altough you could still order one from the factory... I made a good deal on mine: i ordered a new one cheaper from the factory as a used one... Funn...
Nope ....
Strange world, too many people make too much money too easy ? Or do all the car freaks suddenly realize they NEED a cool car ? IMO this is the beginning of the downfall somehow ... same thing happened during the 90ies with brand-new Ferraris, any Ferrari....
I cant resist to the temptation Filip!
and as i needed a daily driver... Due to my new professional challenges ... I thought that the GT3 was ideal ... Because my wife will not lend me her Macan coming in september. The 964 is definitely the next car but first i have to take delivery of the gt...
What a shame ..
.. i hope it wasn't you Descartes that crashed it ... this will take some time and money to fix ... well that's what often happens to track-cars... what a shame. Filip
He hit the wall...
squarely going very, very fast. The frame and axel were bent beyond repair. The way it happened was that he was following a car whose oil pan cracked and all the oil dumped not he track. He went through the oil slick coming out of a turn and lost control ...
