Good morning Ladies & Gents,
Its my 1st post here so go easy on me! Im totally new to the Porsche world. Iv always admired the 911 997 and recently started looking around in view to buy one. I currently drive an Audi A3 1.6tdi... Great car, quality interior but im missing the sports car element! I always promised myself a Porsche of some kind so I think a 997 is the way to go. Now, my question for you guys is, how is it as a daily driver? I will be doing lots of driving abroad to see parents and for work so I need something that is comfortable on a motorway and can cruise well. Im not worried about turbos or performance, would like to keep costs down, so anything crazy or limited editions is out! It needs to be reliable, can't afford a blown engine in Switzerland for example!! Also, given my budget of around 25k + px the A3, would you recommend a newer Cayman or a cheap-is 997? Any reliability problems I should worry about and stay clear of? My Audi is 3yrs old so still under warranty. Its great for piece of mind. As, I guess, 911's or any kind of Porsches are an investment, does Porsche offer any extended warranties?IF not, can anyone recommend one?
Thanks for all your help in advance. Sorry this is a repeated post! I guess you get lots of questions regarding buyers advice etc....
