I'd like to keep the 1'er and add a 993 but that is "impractical" from a garage space and upkeep point of view. Maybe when I get behind the wheel of the 1M in a couple of months, the fog will clear.

I've taken the 1M out a few times over the past two summers and had an absolute blast. My plan is to keep the mileage down and save it for the track. The 993 would be a DD with occasional track use.

993 does some light track duty. I'm a little scared of tracking the 1M because of it's rarity, cost and most of all how upset I'd be if something was to happen. My 993 has done 5 to 10 track days a year for the past 7 years and its a tank. fluid changes, Tires and Brake pads. No problems what so ever. Find a good one they are keepers. |

My CA just lent me his M3 for the day and he used my 1M after it had a curb rash fixed. His conclusion? I should never sell the 1M. He said he tries to duplicate the feel of the 1M in his M3 since the suspension is similar.
I'm glad you didn't sell. |

While some members are debating whether or not to sell their 1m, I'm actually looking to purchase another one in orange, I love my 1m so much I want an extra one, the car is growing on me everyday, call me crazy when I buy the third one

In the end, I decided that it was not as good as the 1M for what I need at this point in my life (2 seats vs 4, trunk space, uniqueness, etc.). Driving the 911 was a whole different matter! That monstrous engine in the back acting like a pendulum was like nothing I've driven before! I walked out wanting a 911. A 993 would be, IMHO, the best one out there.
