Default New C4S owner and couldn't be happier!

Just received my 996 C4S as my DD and couldn't be happier! I am a 993 owner too and I don't understand why this car doesn't get all the love that it deserved from our other fellow Porsche drivers.
I guess it is better for us, prices are still low and I don't think you can get a better car for the money nowadays. Just pure joy and such an amazing driving experience. One very happy new 996 owner here 😁😁

Congrats and welcome!

It doesn’t hurt that you have the best looking of the 996 models, in my opinion. Not to mention one of the best color combinations.

Saying the 996 is the worst 911 is like saying one is married to the ugliest Victoria Secret model.

I remember when the 911 SC and 3.2 Carreras were ‘not that special’ and we’re pretty cheap. I know because I bought one. And it was like a lot of 911s I test drove at the time. They were all great. Still are today. And will be tomorrow.

Congrats on your C4S. Nice to know you can have a 993 but still find some love with the 996.

I couldn't agree more - The C4S is truly one of the best 911's IMHO - I fell in love with mine from the moment I first seen it, fast forward 15 years and I love it just as much - Zero issues, Great Handling, AWD, What's not to love.

Congrats, I grabbed my C4S a little over a year ago, and the appreciation of the car continues every day. Wish you much enjoyment.

Wait - you’ve had your 996 for 15 years?
