Right, that issue would deter me. However when I found it I wrote it off as a similar expense to RB and TA’s. Great to get the M3 owner perspective. I lean slightly more m3, was curious if I was missing out on any remarkable 911 experience.
I think I read something about the bore scoring on the 997 only happening to cars driven in cold climates? Something worth investigating if you decide to go that route.
