They are CHEAP in USA ...  (what else is not cheap in US?) lol

Since ~ 02 till now, 911 has been the lowest problem car u can buy ..

Try to stay away with the early 2005 launch edition C2S .. (usually Black + yellow ceremic brake)  

Any 997 after 01/05 built are good.

Upgrade parts are cheap from US too, you can get EVO intake for just $700 US, TWE/EVO/Cargraphic  Cat Converter/muffler for just $3K US, header for another $2K, GIAC program for $1200 .. labour cost is also cheap from US ..     

Basically, everything is 40% off compare to Can here ..

Check with Barrier la..  they are pretty good ga .. nice new and used inventory too.

Well ... dont need AWD la..  esp in Seattle, much more fun on 2S then 4S. (unless u go 2009 and up)

However, if u like the wide body look, 4S is the way to go ..  but on Cab, it looks wider then coupe anyway ..  I will suggest to stay with 2S.

Many thing u can look for, sport chrono, adaptive seat, full leather, Bose sound, short shifter, Bi Xenon.. etc etc, of course. service record is very important, CPO is the way to go.

a used cab sounds risky. Any cab top w/ no warranty/short warranty just sounds risky to me. Besides, ...

    911 cab is alright .. been out for ~ 30 yr, 04 and up are bullet proof, it is not a Benz hard top.

Anyway, I suggest CPO, as u said, if the top goes wrong, easy $3K plus to fix.

C hing, C2S is super good car in Snow too la.. lol

Anyway, in seattle .. no need to worry about snow la...  by the way, I saw Enzo driving on snow tim ...

EL, I better warn you, either C2 or C4 coupe, backseat are decent for kids, (well, depend how tall you are, if you are over 6'4 .. then a bit problem) however, on the Cab, back seat is tiny, (~ 4 inch less back space)  it is still "ok" to put a booster seat on, (take the base leather piece out) but not child seat.

I forget how old are your kid, but your small one should be quite young, and I am not sure about car seat law in USA, as many car seats will fit into the 911 back seat, are not legal in Canada ...

Again, why you worry about snow driving?? it is Seattle!  

Catpiano

Um... I was under the impression that the Cab has more room in the back, so guess that sale person w ...

    Ha? no way ..  put it this way, 911's back seat is small to start with ..

ANY .. ANY convertible, smaller back seat! (3 series, CLK, 6 series .. etc etc .. )

Another suggestion is, M6 cab .. you are not going to see as much fun as a C2S, about as quick as C2S/C4S, (and much faster @ higher speed) much more room then the C2S/4S cab, plus big enough trunk for your stroller etc ..  but don't get 6sp, at least get SMG.

I guess the price will be similar to the C2S cab/C4s Cab, around $70K US area. (~ 85-90K cad here, if CPO)

I hear you...  !  My work place allows snow day time off, so I guess it's not going to be that bad = ...
