Did 996 C4 have X51 as option?
As title states, did the 996 C4 (not C4s or C2) have the X51 package as an option? If yes, was it available for both the manual and Tiptronic transmission? Asking as I'm considering a 996 and want to know all the variations available.
Thanks
Thanks

I think almost all of the X51 996s were 40AE. The X51 option by itself was extremely expensive, something like 20k. There probably are a few non 40AE, non C4S with the option, and I think I remember someone talking about in a thread not that long ago. Not sure what percentage of the C4S came with X51. I know someone on this forum will have the details.

Thank you for the confirmation. I like the wide body c4s, but there’s something to be said about the sleek narrow body 996. My ideal would be an AE 40 coupe with x51 and the C4 awd system. I’d use it year round and put snow tires on it for the winters here in New England.
