The 964, 911 C2 is very planted in corners in comparison to the earlier 911's. there is still a good bit of 'lift off oversteer' compared to other cars, but not having the torsion bar suspension helps. Of course you already know that the flat 6 makes most of its usable power over 5000 rpm, as a result this car is not fast off the line, but very quick from 70 mph to 100 mph. IMHO, the 3.6 L was the best of the air cooled engines, but your 3.2 L ( I assume) is bulletproof too.

Next year this car will be getting a new suspension, I'm looking at either the Bilstiens with H&R springs, or a whole set of coil overs. Not that this car has a bad suspension, but it is over 20 years old.

In general I love driving this car, it's been tracked a number of times, but not since I picked up the 944. That is a Spec racer though, and a dedicated track car. I might be tempted to enter the 911 in an AX or two though!
