i would say buy a 996 turbo, worth every penny, then, trade it in for a new 997 turbo..might have to wait a lil but but, also worth it

Buy the turbo now and when you get bored with it or when you want the new one, then trade.

Definetly buy the Turbo now...the 997 won't even be that much different most likely, just uglier.

Yeah, I like the 996 more too, especially the headlights, even though they aren't "traditional porsche". I think it looks modern and very proggressive. Probably because all the new cars have this single cluster headlamps.
Where as teh 997 looks retro.
But that is just me though .

So you've driven/seen the 997TT?!?!? What factory do you work at? I've visited the Cayenne/CGT factory in Leipzig when we picked our Cayenne TT up there... Gorgeous....
