After seeing some long time Supraforums (Steve T, Blkmgc) faces here, and of cours knowing the history of M3's moving up to Porsche, I'm curious to see what is the most common progression to a 911 Turbo.

So pick one, and if you are "other", list the most recent car you moved from into a (your first) 911 Turbo/GT2 (993, 996, 997).

Cheers

 

05 Subaru Legacy GT. Still got it.

In order by age:
16 - 1992 Eagle Talon TSi
17 - 2002 Honda Accord LX
18 - 04 Infiniti G35 Coupe
19 - 05 Subaru Legacy GT
21 - 02 Porsche 911 Turbo, 02 Nissan Skyline GTR

 

You're going to find a lot of Audi 2.7T S4 guys too.

 

seems strange you would leave a previous Porsche out of your poll????

 

Agree with the previous Porsche option...my most recent was a 996 prior to that a couple of corvettes etc.

 

Yea, where's the previous Porsche option? I had a 993 C2 cab.

 

My rides in reverse chronological order (most recent at the top)

2002 996 TT modified to 560hp
2001 996 TT stock
2001 Carrera C4
2001 Saab Viggen
1999 Saab Viggen

 

2006 Porsche Cayman S

 

993 c2

 

Is there a way to edit the poll?

 

This is how I got here: (in reverse chronological order)
1. NSX
2. 95 993 c2
3. 94 Supra turbo
4. 93 Rx7 turbo
5. 91 300zx turbo

I always wanted a 911 turbo but it was never possible until the recent price drops.

 

Came from a 2003 G35 coupe. Was looking at M3's, S4's, and vettes and figured for a little bit more, i could have a TT

 

I have a 97 993 cab and a MB E55 now - prior vehicles where 89 911, 62 356, 528e, mini van (kid hauler) and Pinto!

 

My cars in inverse order of purchase:

2004 996 Turbo Cab (current)
2008 Corvette C6 convertible (sold for the 996)
2007 Corvette C6 convertible (hey, they improved it)
2005 Mercedes E55 Wagon (current -- heck of a car)
2007 BMW 335 convertible (hated it, dumped it quick)
2003 BMW 540 supercharged wagon (VF kit)
2003 BMW M3 convertible (miss it)
2001 Corvette C6 bored/stroked/supercharged (miss it too).
some other ones
1986 Buick Grand National (seriously wish I still had it)

Some fun cars. Some I wish I still had. Good decisions, bad decisions -- some of each.

I loved the C6. In many ways liked it better than the 996 (Chevy V8 torque). Think it is better looking than my 996.

Sold it only because I moved to Iowa and the 996 is AWD -- works in the winter.
