Most Unique 911

Jul 29, 2021,12:55 PM
 

the 996 is very special and under rated. It gives you the best of old and new in a very unique avant garde style still a small car vs. the much bigger 997. If you look at the whole 911 line up from beginning till now, 996 is the most unique one. It is also the Toyota Porsche which makes it the best of both worlds. 


Please watch this, imo the best 996 is the 98/99 Carrera basic.

Porsche 911 964. One of my dream cars.

 
 By: amanico : July 28th, 2021-21:07
I have a bit less than ten dream cars: The Ferrari 246 Dino, the Alpine A110, the Volvo P1800, the Jaguar E Type, curiously the Alfa Montreal, a good old Mercedes Pagoda 280 SL and... The Porsche 911. Porsche 911, you will ask me which one, as since 1963,...

But air cooled 911 had such a sound and character! ;)

The 911 is a classic worthy to be called "icon".

From a pure design-perspective the 964 is beautiful. And the RS version is a true dream-car.

I had a 964 as well

 
 By: penfriend : July 28th, 2021-22:38
but I prefer the 993 in terms of look and feel. especially since it is more agile on the road than the 964

What about the 997?

already too perfect in a certain sense

I also had the 996 4S - though the most beautiful of the 996 line-up I got bored after 9 months

 By: penfriend : July 29th, 2021-11:06
the clutch is very heavy on the 964 and 993. so with age and knee problems it might not be a good choice for everyone. that is why i sold my beloved 993 TT some years ago, although it already had a hydraulic supported clutch. Luckily, Sergio Marchionne (R...

The 30th Anniversary you showed - that’s The One. The most resolved design on the lights etc. And that colour was great. After that with the next generation it lost its retro cool. Best E.

And this was my original target, but the Z was both a more economical and perhaps more fun choice. I don’t rule out moving the Z for a 964 though. The other one for me is the 355. There are two in the garage where I park and every time I pass them they ju...

It would be the 911 993 Targa for me. Never driven a Porsche and living in a city haven't had a car for some years or expect to again. Still that 993 has always appealed since the first time that I saw one, that sliding glass roof, beautiful car, to me an...

. . . as I have had more than ten p-cars. The 964 is fantastic for many reasons, not least of which that it is air-cooled. To suggest a water-cooled Porsche like the 997 is to suggest going to an entirely different category -- you might as well suggest a ...

But I think with the older ones I do feel the allure of going the cabriolet route. Top down, wind in your hair, driving along the coast. Feels like heaven I guess that’s what Amanico’s thinking. 964 is really sexy….wish I could get one. Best Gatsby
