No! Maybe the OP didn’t realize it, but the question of the best looking 996 could mean ALL 996s that look the best, the best looking examples across all types, or the best 996s of the same type. Either way, this thread could reach the thousands.



Example: an LS 996 with different Wheels looks pretty sweet

I like what I've done with mine... 2001 996 C2 Cab, 137K miles. Bought it for $9500 and did a restomod. Details at http://porsche.rossie.net





Rebuilt calipers, powder coated. Powder coated wheels with red lip.


Red and black interior, fully redone in leather, and hydrographics.


Custom leather boot with hydrographics.

Personally the mk1 gt3 is my favorite 996. I really like the large full size headlights when they are all clear/silver, the mk2 headlights just look weird and almost like an afterthought to quell the idiots down who started all the complaining.

I truly think the world will finally come around one day for us who like the “fried egg” look.

For me, stock is always best.

I love the look of my 02 C2, but the .2 GT3 Clubsport is stunning.

Absolute perfection. Sounds like you are keeping this one for good, but if you ever decide to part with it I'd love to be first in line.

For me, the "cleaner" the car the better. I'm not really a fan of the aero add-ons and wings, but as they say, beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. Browsing through this forum, there are some great looking cars and some great photographers!
