To T to not to T....tough question. The three 940s my wife and I drivw are n/a. My 18 year son has a 95 T and I was a just a wee bit jealous. I'm almost over that. My son doesn't drive hard and wanted to trade me cars because of the better gas mileage in the n/a.

Since I can maintain, at the very least, 65MPH going up the steepest mountain from Mt. Airy, NC through VA and WV, I am happy with a n/a. I find myself passing up a lot of under powered "junk" too! I can go almost just as fast as a turbo but it just takes me a little longer to get there. I will not say I'm an old fart, just yet, though.

Either way, in a 940, it wouldn't matter. I all depends on your need for faster acceleration, verses a little economy, and the many intangibles.

Geez, there are a lot of good deals out there if you can take your time. I just saw a '94 940T for $2500. I was thinking about it, but I have no more room, and I can't get rid of any. (Did I just say I wanted a T?)
