I'll take the "extra weight" and the ability to sit in traffic.
However, the performance and styling of the 993, and your friends '97 S, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

I am all about this, probably in a nice obnoxious yellow. I don't know anyone who has had problems with and air cooled vehicle overheating in traffic, and I know a lot of people with a/c vehicles

For me I've always loved the Porsche 911,996,997 & 993. Those were a real mans Porsche. Didn't really care for 928 & definately can't stand the poor mans Porsche 944. Garbage. I love the Type 1 Bugs, Air cooled ones, so that's one reason why I love any of those Porsches that resemble the Bug. I've owned 4 74 Superbeetles.
