• Manual 997.2 is the pinnacle pure 911 experience! Good luck with the viewing. It's safe money knowing there are so few of them and bore score issues are still pretty much a non entity with the .2

    I bought the cheapest 997.1 manual C4s in the country with big mileage at the beginning of last year knowing it had bore scoring (and a bizarre amount of rust) and it's still ticking away quite literally albeit without loss of compression so I still drive it until I can afford to Hartech rebuild it. It wasn't an investment purchase but I felt compelled to rescue it from total demise and for it to eventually become a heroic car with miles piled on it. I drive it once a month...

  • Yeah - I’m pretty excited- had been looking for a 997.1 that had had a Hartech rebuild but this came up in budget…

    Hope you are right - my thinking is that they are the last of the 911s with hydraulic steering and still a sensible size. Plus the interior is a step up from the 996 generation imo.
