Thumbs up Calling C4S - GT3 - Turbo owners

We already have a number of 996 owners that feature in the Definitive Guide to 996 series 911 -
Amazon Amazon

But we would like to add a few extra owners, ideally C4S, Turbo and GT3... if you fancy sharing your ownership experiences/knowledge and an image of your car, just copy the questions below - add your information then pop it back to us via a PM.

Owners Cars
In this section we have included opinions and advice from real owners of the various models. You really can’t beat the insights provided by people who live with the cars day by day. You will notice that many are serial Porsche 911 owners, which says much for the loyalty the brand can inspire! Below we take a look at what first inspired people to buy a 996 series 911, the positives and negatives of ownership, faults they may have encountered, hints & tips on getting the best out of the cars & a summary of their overall 996 experience.


Introduction (brief summary about you, age/profession)


What first drew you to consider and then purchase a Porsche 996 (+ maybe a few past cars showing the path)



Which model 996 do you have & why did you choose it (also what attracted you to your particular 996, options, colour, service history, condition, etc & how long have you owned the car/s)


Positives (Things you enjoy about the car)


Negatives (Design faults, quirks & hassles)


Any faults or unexpected costs experienced (IMS – Bore scoring – etc)


Thoughts/advice on running costs(rough costs for depreciation, service, tyres, brakes, sundries, extra aftermarket additions etc any personal tips on saving money or avoiding issues – like those detailed above)




Your own top tips for buying & owning a 996 (including your favourite and least favourite options/ best model and model year recommendations)


Overall Summary of ownership experience (taking into account the styling, driving, running costs, reliability, etc)
