Re: Porsche 997 911TT vs. NSX


Big advantages to the 997.2 turbo - if you have that kind of dough - it's a no brainer! 

 

The 996 and 997 are still plagued by a few minor issues like the RMS leak and some other ones and the 997 which is a evolution of the 996 engine has some of those issues but if the RMS has been replaced already it should be a good car.  The intermediate shaft bearing issue is another story.  But most don't develop that. 

 

The storage issue - you can put the rear seats down and put golf bags/clubs there.  It has more luggage space than an NSX - you gotta agree with that.  You have the front trunk too for luggage.  I've surely thought of these things for later down the road but I haven't got the cash for anything new like that! 

 

The 997.2 with direct fuel injection from what my friend tells me about his - his is a non turbo - it is great - doesn't burn oil and it doesn't have the lay shaft/intermediate shaft at all and the RMS is not a problem with it.  It's a good one at least that's the thought now - but they haven't been out that long.  I'm still watching this.  But the new turbo - is DYNOMITE!  Walter Rohl loves it and it's the first one he's ever gotten with the automatic trans - and paddle shifters!  I kind of think it's going to be awesome!  Try it and let us know!  We'll be waiting.  :wink:
