I’d like to pick up a 99.
Don‘t know where I’d park it though.

Purchasing my early 99 was not really intentional, it just worked out that way. I have really enjoyed it.

I like the 99 911 the best mainly for the orange in the headlights and orange/red tail lights.

That was the only year of the drive by cable, correct?

I have a 6/99 build date and have cable gas, cable engine, and cable frunk. I feel like I'm part of the cool kids now!

Good to see some favorable press on the 996. I have nothing else to compare to but I do love my '99

Love my 1999 lapis lazuli 996. I was not aware of the double row IMS, cable throttle and lid when I purchased this amazing car 5 years ago.
