I don't believe that at all.

I bought an 08 911.

A 911 is a true 911 if porsche says it is. also, I couldn't care less if the junk I have is a REAL 911 or not.

I wouldn't say "amazing" but it was still a great car nonetheless or else I wouldn't have owned 2 of them. Still have my e30 M3 though but it is more of a museum piece now...

I apologize for that bit of snark then. Must have you mixed up with one of the 993 guys that comes in periodically

I don't give a rats *** what ANY magazine , blog, or whatever says.
I love both my 996 and my Boxster.
They are both beautiful fun cars, headlights and all, that run circles around most of the other cars on the road.

If you don't like it, go pound sand
