I had a 924 Turbo that I really loved. I also had a 924S that was a very willing car. Need to see if I can scrape up some pics.

I agree that we’re a decade or more away from seeing where the 986 fits in Porsche history and value.

I’m quite happy with my 986 but more and more I’m looking at picking up a 996 Carrera 4S with the turbo body while they’re still relatively cheap. Who knows what the future holds in store.

If you saw the article/video, Porsche put out it’s most iconic cars of the decades and the 986 was the 90’s. Their perspective is this is the car that allowed the company to be what it is today...
