Solid fun

This is the first 911 I've owned, and it's been 10 years since I purchased it. It has 95K on the odo, and runs & drives like new, thanks to a great service shop. I love driving it and plan to keep it for years longer. There's nothing like the experience of driving a car like this.

2003 Porsche 911 Cabriolet

This is my fifth Porsche. I bought this car to have a convertible weekend car. I didn't expect much performance out of it as I've owned a Twin Turbo and have an air cooled track car as well I race with the POC. The 996 Cab turns out to be a great performance car with outstanding handling. On canyon roads this car will keep up with practically anything. Just change the IMS bearing when you replace the clutch and you will have a great durable car. Also the value of these cars have increased by 40% in the past few years! Who doesn't like that?

2003 911 C2

I have driven a few different Porsches and at the end of the day, i just wanted something that looked modern. I was considering a 997 or a 987 Cayman. Even though a thought of a well balanced Cayman sounded great, when i drove it, it lacked the power i was looking for after coming from a Turbo car. When i drove the 997, it was a bit too modern and the interior made it seem to touring for my liking. The silver plastic pieces really stood out. My buddy owned a 996 C1, which i drove and didnt like that either and wasn't a fan of the first series fried egg headlight. The C2 was just right, it had the updated headlight. It has the updated motor with more HP/Torque and the interior (in all black) looked good to me. It hid most of the round lines and without looking at the radio, it flowed just fine to showcase a vehicle of that age. The door panels are my favorite. The drive is what i fell in love with. I have never driven the C4S as i heard it was heavier and the Turbo i heard was a bit scary at full boost, the C2 gave me the raw, analog feel that fit just right. From the moment, i stepped in and gunned it up the pass and around the corner, the feel of the car, the power and the grip of the steering wheel made me think i could own this car forever. If anything, i told my fiance i want another! Yes, i wanted circle headlights but for a vehicle that pretty much came out to defy performance and saved Porsche, if you get the chance, hop in for a drive an make the decision after. I believe pristine examples of this model will start to appreciate as they are true 911s. Hope this information helps!

Best 911 for the money

Modern, powerful, comfortable and handsome, the 996 has a lot to offer. IMS issue is easily addressed with clutch service which is 40k mile service issue. Less well know issues include valve actuators the make an IMS fix look cheap! A nice 40k - 60k mile car with service records can be found fir $25k. 3.4 or 3.6 are both excellent. The 4wd option is nice and worth paying up for if you will be driving in the snow. Ditch the original stereo and add Bluetooth and backup camera.

Porsche 911 Carrera Aero

I was in my early twenties, working 12 hour days in a manufacturing plant, we had three small children. One night while working overtime, the owner of the company pulled up in his new Porsche 911 with a Whale Tail. I said to myself, I will own one of those some day, and I won't forget this night. I waited decades until all our children finished their graduate degrees, so I could finally purchase my 911. I have now owned my 911 for about 6 years now, and now and then when I walk across a parking lot to get to my 911, that night still pops in my head.
