1996 Porsche 911 993 Carrera review from North America
"Excellent"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Absolutely incredible. This is how a car should be made.
This car is the best car I have ever driven and I have driven them all! Reliability is excellent. The car starts with one key-turn.
Styling is timeless! You know you are in something special when you drive this car. The car feels like it has its own personality and responds differently to every weather condition. She runs cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
I wish we could go back to making "real" cars like the 993 Porsche. Once the car is at its optimum engine temperature, you feel it transform into the most incredible car ever made. Absolutely incredible.
I only drive mine from April to late November, although it is known to be great in snow.
The car is superb. If you can find one, buy it!
