[SUBSCRIBE/LIKE/COMMENT] What does it mean to be the "least desirable 911"? The Collector Car Guru Sam returns to the driver's seat of a 996 after two decades ago to destroy beliefs the 996 is anything other than pure awesomeness and show the days of being worth half of an air-cooled 993 911 are certainly going to end soon!

Great review. Bought my 99 C4 January this year. Had the IMs bearing done and some other sensible stuff. Love it. All you said is so true. They will go up as people realise how great they are and air cooled are just to Darn expensive

LOVE my 996.!!! If it wasn't for the elitists disdain for this car, I never could have afforded the car I've dreamed of owning for over 40 years...

Thanks, great review and I concur. So last week I picked up a 996 C2 manual 3.6 here in Stockholm 😊 Has to be the sportscar bargain of the century!!

Yes here in Australia. Picked mine up 6 years ago for $36K and immediately did IMS replace. Money well spent. Use it on long trips to Sydney and out to the bush. Love every minute of it. Such a joy to drive. I’m 80 and it takes years of my life.

Great review! It’s definitely a future classic. And most people who criticize the 996 haven’t driven one.

In 2015 I was looking for a air cooled 911 but came across a 1999 996 a few towns over from a private seller and picked it up fo $11k. This car has the less problematic dual row IMS bearing but was at the height of the IMS panic so this is why I got for that price. 70's - 80's air cooled 911's were selling in the $30k range so I thought I scratched my itch for a 911 however while the 996 is a great 911 I wish I would have not settled and bought the air cooled model I originally wanted.

While the 993 and 996 drive similarly and have a common feel, trying to compare an 80's G to a 996 is like comparing filet mignon to Copper River salmon. We always consult with our customers to really be in tune with the motivating factors and align them with the realities (good, bad and ugly) of the available options. Even if everyone else loves Copper River salmon, if you really want steak and you're in a great steakhouse, getting the filet mignon is the right call for you! Same goes with choosing Porsches.
