E30 S52 Touring or a 911?

[nando]

E30s do the same thing, although to a lesser degree.

lol.

Step 1 of driving a 911, don't lift
Step 2 of driving a 911, DO NOT LIFT
Step 3 of driving a 911, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DON'T LIFT

Lift sometimes in a 911.

Momentary trailing throttle on a tight corner entry to rotate the car and then hard on the gas, crossed up a little bit at the exit is pretty magical in my 911.

Yeah its a pretty staggering difference in my experience.

i was just going to post something like that lol.
99% if not all of the 911 spin outs are DRIVER error.
all though i will say that it does take some fairly big ones to stay in it when everything you know and feel is telling you to back off the loud peddle at first.
but once its mastered in 2-3 track days just practicing this youll be good to go and do it like second nature.

Personally i'd keep the touring. They are really rare, and just a great sight to look at.

and an s52? sick. :P

[shaferbm]

LOL

My vote is keep the touring they're stupid rare and that thing is cherry by the looks of the pictures. Save up and buy a P car when you can.

Very hard decision and as others have said, you may never own something like this again. Keep touring, sell house, buy 964 and a garage, live in touring/garage. Done.

Half kidding.

10,000.00 in good condition IMO, i just mentioned seeing one go for around 10K a little over a year ago with a euro S50 and all done up on another post not half hour ago lol weird.
good luck with your 964 they are great cars, im actually looking to get one myself once my other project is finished.
im looking to do a 1965-72 back date on it, what are your plans.

May have been my car. I sold my euro s50 with e36m3/m coupe 5lug for $8k.

I would consider trading my e39 m5 for an s5x e30 touring...

As much as I love a clean 911, your touring is probably just as fast, or maybe even faster, cheaper to maintain, and above all, MUCH more practical and useful. And personally, if I were to get a 911, it'd probably be an SC.

yea actually i think it was, it was a very nice setup for sure.

I should probably put the same poll up on the pelican parts forum to get results in favor of the 911.
Or maybe go impartial and post the question to a dodge neon board perhaps?

[MC Hammered]

$11-13,000 for your ride basing it on what I paid for for mine.

There may be more tourings in BC, I have only seen 4 other ones (red, silver, blue and green) and 2 have serious rust issues and the other 2 are now wrecked and in a scrapyard.

When I was buying mine I looked at what was available overseas and did not find much in the 6-7 category and none in the 8+. After dealing with my rust issues I would assume any other touring in Europe would have similar issues if not more since they were used as daily haulers.

Would I trade your touring for that 911? That's a tough call as it all depends on how much you have into the touring. I know I would never be able to find/make/build another touring like the one I have and I have learned to carefully consider this fact before thinking of letting it go.

[LJ851]

You really should have both.

[HighOnLife]

You really should have both.

I like the way you think! Wish it was a possibility

[squidmaster]

Definitely the touring. Things are stupid rare and the old porsches have a bit of a habit of this.

he's got some strong wheels

[sapurvis]

911. The answer is always 911 if you have the money. 964's are not my favorite, though. An earlier SC would be beautiful. 993's are too smooth looking. 930 = Greatness.
