Both cars are AWD- most people don't realize this.

Porsche brough about 1,200 993 Turbos into the USA in 1996 and about another 600 in 1997. There are right now only about 80-90 active cars for sale in the USA. The sad part is that the strength of the Euro has many of these cars going to over-seas buyers. So, there are becoming less and less cars available in the USA.

only a jump of 24hp, thats nothing, you have driven the 993 turbo right ? if so how was it
