Hello once again Tom... after many 245 years! Yes, the modified 245 was, and still is a great car, ask Sean Corron (Scorron) how well it is still doing! I surrendered at 236K as I was driving 4 hours each day and didn't have time to keep up with Bleen's demands... which were numerous! Sean has even gone to the lengths of tranny swap, wet sanding the body, fresh paint, and replacing the tan interior with black, dang, I wish I had that much strength left!
In regards to the C30, I've wanted one since they first came out, dang, I even wanted the R design AWD from Europe, but back then life really sucked! Since the 245 I put $6K into an 01 Porsche 986S as a daily driver, 35K later, the transaxle grenaded... still working on the rebuild. Then there was the #2 piston and went to Valhalla.
The C30 is great, tons of room in the interior, the handling is a touch stiff which I love, the sways are awesome and the torque at low an mid RPMS is seriously impressive. The turbo kicks in at 1500 rpms at any throttle position of 30% or higher. The chassis is incredibly stiff, and I plan on trying Autocross with it soon, as it will take a long time to fix that 986S transaxle!
