Default Pic of 993/996

Drove my 996 to a buddy's house yesterday for a side-by-side pic with his 993.

Both are silver with gray interior. Both have aero kits. Both are lowered. Just different models.

Sorry... He only took a couple of pictures. I'll remember to bring my own camera next time.

Shows the awesome progression of the 911. Would be a tough choice between the two!

If you could get a silver 997 to join the party next time that would be something to see. Nice pics.

I know there's a silver 996 C4S on the end of his street, but he didn't want to come out and play.

Very nice picture and yes, my 996 next to my 964 makes it look very small. I really like the early Aero I cars

Great pic - the 996 looks much more modern, no? I can see why Porsche owners struggle between the more modern, faster 996 and the classic 993. Everyone needs two.

I agree.

That picture makes the 993 windshield looks about as upright as a pickup truck. The 993 is a beautiful car, but sitting next to that 996 it really shows it's age.
