What is type 1 over-rev?
I would imagine a misshift can still result in a damaging over-rev.

 

Type 1 is just bouncing off the limiter. It's not down shifting from sixth to first. LOL

 

If you go on Rennlist, a couple buyers are dissatisfied with the 991 and want to get back into a 997. So it seems to me like the 991 is going to be a better sell with the "consumer" rather than the 911 driver.

But seriously, 997 prices are so good right now! A perfect S is about 50k, and a GT3 is about 70k. While a fully loaded 991 is as much as those two combined. If only I had the money or the means.

 

Links to those? I'm lazy.

 

no doubt. i may have to sell the car i just bought. LOL

 

This just means 996 prices are dropping even more too...I'll have to choose between a 996 and a Z06 in a year or two, not a bad decision to have to make!

 

I wonder if the dissatisfaction with the 991 stems from the new electric pump steering change.

 

Unless its a GT3, I say Z06. And that's coming from a diehard porschephile.

 

No doubt. Seems to be the easiest thing to point to when quantifying the less involving driving experience of the 991.

 

What about 996tt? Prices are right there with the C6 Z06, it would be a tough decision for sure... two beasts for so little money.
