Two and a half years. Zero problems except for a malfunctioning cigarette lighter. Granted, I've only put 12,500 miles on it but still...

7 years, 3 months, 16 days, an average of about 45 miles a day. I have slowed down lately, but I hear the Canadian rockies calling again.

One year and one day. Yesterday took it on a drive to the coast and coming home got chased from behind by a new red 997 and then a yellow Lamborgini who snuck up on both of us while we were passing other cars. Why that was so fun only we know

Not long enough. If I had known what a great car the 993 is, I would have gotten one a long time ago. But for me its been 4 great months, of course I'm staring at the edge of the slope!

Original owner since June 1996. Almost traded it in for a 997S last month. I was offered to trade at 45% of my original purchase price 9 years ago, which is very good for a 9 years old car. But at the end, I still love my 993 very much and decided to keep it.

I had it since July of 2004. I love it even more after DIY of spark plugs, Dist Caps/rotors, Valve cover gaskets and recently an oil change. This baby is staying in the family.

I've owned mine for exactly 1 year this month. But I have owned several Matchbox/Hotwheels versions of the car since I was about 5.
