I don't know about the rest of people, but my own opinion: 996 is epic and a beast. Sure, not as valued or loved as the previous or later generations, but to say it's "bad"...nah, I disagree with that. But maybe I am biased, since the 996 generation is sort of a childhood hero...I was 7-8 years old when it came out, and it was the coolest thing ever to me. Specially the Turbo, I loved it, including the fact even its taillights were different. It was always my car of choice when playing Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit 2 in the PS2.
I have a manual 2000 Turbo; i have had many other performance machines but the 996 TT is the best, most analogue go kart i ever owned; you have to love the simplicity and raw acceleration though. It’s a hidden gem, buy one now they’re still relatively cheap❤
porsche do it best, no matter what the age, they realise that the driver wants to know what they’re driving, modern/ old skool no matter what. you know you’re driving a porsche. no matter what.
Great video but why oh why do people say the interior "looks a little outdated" ?? It was designed in the early 90's so could be almost 30yrs old !! That's why it looks out dated because it's really old now and Porsche never gave a crap about interiors (until the 997) , look at the 993.
Just remember that the proper function of the 996 turbo’s all wheel drive system depends upon the front tires being slightly larger in diameter than the rear. Stock, the rears are 25” and the fronts are 25.1” diameters.
