Basheer is reviewing the Porsche 911 993 Carrera 4 and also discussing whether the 993 is the best 911 ever built.
The Porsche 993 is a renowned sports car that was part of the Porsche 911 series. It was produced from 1993 to 1998 and is often considered one of the most iconic 911 models. Some key features and information about the Porsche 993 include:
1. Design: The 993 retained the classic 911 silhouette but featured smoother and more aerodynamic body lines compared to its predecessor, the 964. It had a distinctive sloping front end and integrated bumpers.
2. Engine: The Porsche 993 was available with a range of flat-six engines, including the 3.6-liter air-cooled boxer engine. This engine produced various power outputs, with the Turbo model being particularly powerful.
3. Performance: The 993 was known for its exceptional handling and performance, with models like the 911 Carrera 4S and 911 Turbo capable of impressive acceleration and top speeds.
4. All-Wheel Drive: The Carrera 4 models introduced an all-wheel-drive system to the 911 lineup, enhancing traction and stability.
5. Last Air-Cooled 911: The Porsche 993 was the last of the air-cooled 911 models before Porsche transitioned to water-cooled engines with the 996 generation.
6. Collectibility: Due to its unique blend of classic styling, driving dynamics, and historical significance as the last air-cooled 911, the Porsche 993 has become highly collectible among enthusiasts.
7. Limited Production: Porsche produced a limited number of the 993 models, which adds to their exclusivity and desirability in the collector car market.
Overall, the Porsche 993 is celebrated for its combination of classic 911 aesthetics and impressive performance, making it a standout model in the Porsche 911's illustrious history.

Best 911 of the Air-cooled era❤

@invictusporsche Год назад

100% agreed. A joy to drive 👌❤️

@detonator2112 Год назад

I think 993 is the best 911 ever made. Best looking, still hand made, superb quality and still had the original Porsche spirit and that traditional 5-gauge layout. Sure the new ones are faster but who cares? 964 and 993 are the pinnacle of Porsche to me.

These days cars are too powerful for the road. I love the doors of 993.

+1. .. Agreed, your speaking to the choir. ..However in the garage is the '98 Carrera S (993) I'd order in June of '97. .. Passed on the 4S 4wd sticking with the lighter rear 2wd C2S 3.8l. .. Then checked all the options, well very many. .. Whole hog, as the saying goes. .. Man, I love the look and ride of the 17"x9 Cup II alloys. .. 99% stock w/ a little HiFi technology help ( fully active/DSP w/ ATC UK drivers) .. All stealth, of course. .. As always much appreciate the video production efforts! .. Subscribed. .. Entertaining narration, you know Porsche 911s (993) Goes to the grave with me .... Cheers, Vail, Colorado

The interiors of 993s seem made of the best materials. Despite being 30 years old they can still look new inside.

It’s an unstressed engine, built to withstand pretty much a lot of hammering. Super strong units. Having just done a euro tour France/Spain 2500miles in 2.5 weeks at temps of 38 - 41 degs heat, driven for 10hrs straight at high revs. They are unrelenting, untiring and bullet proof.

@invictusporsche Год назад

Thank you for sharing this. I have been thinking of doing a mini trip of Europe in the one I have just reviewed in the video ❤️😊

@y0057 Год назад

@@invictusporsche you won’t regret it, I’ve done 3 huge European tours in mine, I can assure you this car is robust and tireless and with the seats you won’t feel a thing after a 15 hour drive, with a well set up suspension you will marvel at the balance on high speed corners. On my last trip I stayed strictly on secondary between Calais and Alicante. I was having so much fun I rarely stopped to rest except for fuel and a night stop Toulouse. Amazing cars considering they are near 30years old now

@@y0057 that sounds amazing and glad you are making memories in yours

@ErnieBerckman 9 месяцев назад

I just purchased a 1997 993. While it’s the base Carrera with some nice options, I love the feel and handling of this car! Only 37000 miles with all its service records, the price was steep. But I plan on doing a couple of SWern USA trips in the car in the spring. 1-2000 miles each. Then back to the East coast where my 992 C2S awaits with at least 1 trip to the Canadian maritimes planned.

@y0057 9 месяцев назад

@@ErnieBerckman Congratulations 👏🏾 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾. I wish you many happy road miles. 2024 is a clean state for you to enjoy aircooled goodness 😁, I certainly can’t wait to put mine on the road towards the Alps or Pyrenees again once winter subsides 😁👌🏿

I own a 99 996 coupe and have always hated the pop-up spoiler as a gemic. Yes I understand it provides some downforce but just see it as an errection when it goes above 40. I've always thought the 993 was the best 911 but I'm not willing to pay the prices to own one. I forgot it has the same tacky spoiler as my 996. I also noticed many design ques of the 993 in the 996 especially when viewed from the rear

@invictusporsche 8 месяцев назад

I hear you, some people love the rear spoiler up and some despise it. Do you think Porsche made a mistake by having one that deploys at speed?

To all the guys leaving the rear spoilers always up. What’s up with that? Makes no sense and looks not cool.

@invictusporsche 9 месяцев назад

I guess it is to show that it is functional in our videos. When normal driving I leave it down and only goes up as the speed does

I'm going to ask or at least recommend that you ignore such things from here on. Doing so will improve your life, if ever so slightly.

@-Grifter Год назад

It’s funny. I love these but I currently have a 997.2 CS2 PDK which is also amazing. Any Porsche sports car driver of around the same year or earlier says hello or at least a nod. The new Porsche drivers in the 992 gens seem to mostly look the other way. I guess they are more money? However I did see a 991 guy with a lovely silver car with deep red interior Pull up behind me at a Shell garage and he did complement me and I him. It’s a funny old world. I wonder how the new ones react to the 993 or even earlier cause round ere it’s a bit of a pompous attitude. I’m not far from invictus. I guess

@y0057 Год назад

All 991 and newer car drivers onwards look away, but I find from 997 and older respond but the older Aircooled car drivers( mostly long term owners I suspect) always wave or flash

@invictusporsche Год назад

A lot of the 992 owners are new to 911 and may not know the etiquette of waving to other 911 owners whereas the old 911 folk know the deal. Keep smiling and enjoining your car.

The 993s look nice, but just buy a 996. They are better performers and half the price.

@davidwills3107 Год назад

964 is the best, the 993 doesn’t look great at the front but all about opinions.

@invictusporsche Год назад

The 993 has a slightly cleaner appearance, 964 is beautiful too.

@detonator2112 Год назад

I think 993 looks better. 964 sloped rear isn't good looking. But I like the 964 as well.

@davidwills3107 Год назад

@@detonator2112 really, I always thought it looked mean at the back and is in keeping with the traditional front of AC. Good to have differing opinions though, I’ve just never liked the front of the 993 for some reason.

@detonator2112 Год назад

@@davidwills3107 Weird. I think the 993 front is a great mix between old and new. Almost all new 911's look a lot like 993 from the front. It's generally liked styling so Porsche intentionally moved there. It's not even that much different, only the cannons were smoothed.
