  1. I run the Kumhos and have found the hype about their inferior wear to be just that, hyperbole they are a bit louder, perform well wet/dry, are a bit slow to warm up and round out in the am i will not return to michelins (which i have run on all of my porsches and bmws) unless i hear something about safety i have had my car re-alligned to non-porsche specs and think this has a huge impact on the tire chewing issues in these cars ps speaking of safety: when you pull the wheels takea look at the inside beads on the rims for perpendicular cracks; these are caused by hitting curbs (you can buy a car with the wheels scrapes nicely covered cosmetically) they can crack across the rim slowly and leak air or abruptly at speed
  2. for me the choice was about design; i was burned by a 996 motor failure and became jaded about the newer cars until i learned that the 996 TT is a dry sump, bullet proof motor; it has turned out to be my best car ever It runs cool in 100 degree plus heat, rattles alot and makes a huge amount of torque My 996 carrera was nice, the turbo is a brutal car. I have to laugh when the usual BMW commuters come up behind me (what they don't know won't hurt them)
