If yesterday’s low-mileage and high-dollar 993 Turbo was out of your price bracket or simply not the sort of Porsche that you are in the market for, then perhaps the car featured here will be more appropriate. An Ocean Blue 1998 Porsche 911 Carrera S with Cashmere leather interior, located in New York. With its wider rear and stiffer suspension the C2S delivers nearly perfect contours to go along with 282 hp driving the rear wheels. While not as effortlessly powerful as the Turbo, the C2S still provides its owners plenty of power and, outside of the unobtainable Carrera RS, represented the best of the naturally-aspirated road-going 993s.

The biggest down side to a car like yesterday’s 993 Turbo is that it likely will remain locked away in a garage to be brought out only for special occasions. Collector cars certainly have their place, but almost all of us are here because of a passion we have for driving. So while this C2S still won’t come cheaply, because a good condition 993 simply does not come cheaply anymore, it can be driven and enjoyed in the manner in which the Porsche engineers intended. While it won’t see the sky high appreciation of a pristine Turbo it will still hold its value quite well, provided it is properly maintained. And really, that’s the best situation for an enthusiast: purchase a fantastic car and enjoy every moment with it and then when it is time to move on, find another like-minded owner and recoup most, if not all, of your initial investment.
