Cover stories I saved include:
1998 August "New 911 Arrives in U.S.
1999 May "Carrera 4: The Best Ever?" (They said Yes!)
2001 November "New 911 Carrera!" (Mk II)
There are others issues with Short stories, and in 2009 September (and other years) - the "996 & 997 Market Updates" gives a good overview of the 996.
Despite the mechanical issues we see with aging - this first total redesign of the 1963 911 received great reviews. Clearly it was a better 911 in all the measured standards, and styling is a very subjective personal issue. The best "critics" were the buyers, many more that any prior model, showing the real impact of this ...
IMHO "best buy" 911!
