E92 is Feminine and the E90 is Masculine.

Have been looking at 996/7s for something more analogue - this video picked up and loved the realism (relatable insights) and natural style. Good luck with your channel

Only 35k miles and it’s still missing the clock cover. Truly a rare sight

Valvetronic full exhaust

I've got a 968 and it's my favourite car to drive. Not the fastest but it just feels amazing.

Beautiful timeless design, but wood trim 🤢think the other trim doesn’t have it, not sure.

sorry, mate, but the audio quality is so bad I can't understand anything you're saying. captions aren't very good because YT can't understand you either.

Remind me what this guys been on before ?

Excellent review as always. I love the automotive design element you always touch on.

The sound is great! What exhaust is used?

Wonderful review. Would love to hear your thoughts on a GS F if you could get your hands on one.

Would love a guide for the regular Z4 coupe 3.0si! From what I heard, the N52B30 should be more reliable than the S54, but the ones available in my area are quite high mileage (around 150k miles) and I'm nervous about buying such a high mileage car.

What about the main Problem of the Engine the so called „Piston Tipper“ which is leading to a capital Engine Failure and Rebuild; Costs: 15-20.000 Euros. My Carrera 4 had this Issue at 80.000 km.

how many miles/kms on yours? How is the annual maintenance cost?

Great video! 💪

I had EXACTLY the same 996: 12/1997, black, spacegrey interior, Turbo-Wheels (got the hollow ones from 993). What a great car that was. I want one back again - also an early one. 👌

I'm an SL320 owner in the UK. Great review. One slight addition: There were two 3.2 engines in the later models: a straight 6 and a V6. I initially went shopping for a V8 but ended up buying the V6. Why? Bang for your buck. You're correct; the V8 and V12 models are wonderful but aren't worth the premium over the great prices you can get a six-cylinder for. I took mine for a 3,500-mile road trip around Europe last year. It did the Austrian Alps, Croatian backroads, Italian cities, 100s of miles on autobahns (215kph with the roof down was fast enough for me!), and much more, in the baking sun and torrential rain. I didn't have a single issue and I never got backache (which I'm prone to). I don't know what a V8 would have done that the V6 didn't. If you're buying, take advice from people who've driven each engine and don't just buy a V8 because it's a V8.

Little gems 💎

The car looked gorgeous in that color. Oddly enough it looked dark green. And I love the interior color. So elegant.

The E90-E39 comparison doesn’t get made enough.

Full suspension refresh every 2 years?! Where has he dreamt that up from?

Car is badass man especially for the year!

Never been a better time to buy one of these then now!

do you know anything about the blower. is it a rotex or Eaton. I have been going to the inventor of blown Porsches across the ponds shop for past 30 years. Mike Levitas TPC turbo performance center. this car here is so crazy awesome and rare but I'd guess when he supercharged it he might not have known how crazy the Porsche market would go(my brother paid 75k for his 993 turbo 20 years ago now 250k) these CS cars are what are our current RS cars are hardcore track cars. im actually a 928 lover too!!! but this drive had to be something not soon forgotten no matter what else you've driven. bloody brilliant sir!!! what a outstanding car!!! cheers oh yes any info on who makes the blower I'd be much obliged

holy shitball f**ks!!!! a blown 968 is crazy Kool but a club. oh baby!! im a transaxle Porsche lover. the 951 was one of the most capable chassis of its era!! great cars then throw a blower at it, it doesn't get any better!!! outstanding!!!

Production quality is good.

Transxaxle are soooo underrated cars!, i love those unloved Porsche!

Nice review, thanks. I drove one a few months ago and was a bit underwhelmed too. I also found the ergonomics a bit cramped. I'm 187cm (almost 6´2). What did you (and everybody else) think about that? Especially the clutch seemed too close to me.

Saw it being fitted at 9Excellence when I was thinking about adding a supercharger to a 944S a few years ago. Really neat installation.

With the supercharger how does overtaking on the road go? It looks fantastic …

Great review. Very fair. I have had one for a year and I love it, every drive is fun. The steering wheel point is very true, great on the country roads but a bit annoying in Waitrose car park. You get used to the gear box and it’s great once you are going but you do need to finesse it a bit. I think it has got better (softened) once I had done a 1000 miles or so. Fits my golf clubs which is a plus! People like it, which surprised me a bit. A get a lot of comments from strangers so even though it isn’t very visible in racing any more in the U.K. (and owned by Chinese!) people seem to feel warmly about it. I test drove a Caymen boxter ftype and 991 Carrera and it had the most involvement and fun factor, which is what I wanted. I tracked one recently at thruxon and it was great fun but you do need to concentrate more than in some of the other I have driven so definitely not the fastest lap times for a mainly recreational driver like me. If I could change one thing it would be a higher rev limiter level, but having said that you only really get there on track or slip road acceleration.

Very thorough video. Good stuff

Which cars can be seen as alternatives besides the Porsche Cayman? It has not to be new …

Had one back in the day, i loved the shrunken 928 looks, direct / firm control weighting and responsive torquey engine (not forgetting the extra large hatch for bikes etc) . The fixed seats and remote boot release and road noise made it less than ideal everyday car. Next car was a3.2 Boxster S, pains me to say better package all a round 😢.

Beautiful colour combo. The 722.6 transmission is legendary for its strength and reliability . Lovely car

My old old 944 was an enjoyable car and handled the best of any car I’ve driven, but simply not fast enough. This version was an excellent car with enough performance to leave you buzzin with satisfaction 👊🏻

SC 968 has to rate as one of the all time sensibleish driving experiences.

I love it! Wish it had a 6 cylinder though.

Great video, as always, I have found some Porsches to be quite overrated and a little dull to drive at times.

The front looks a bit like the 993

Had a 04 dinan m3 years ago I always missed. Just bought a 06 vert today, cant wait to get it!

Solid video, awesome car

Excellent review as always 👏

Essentially a 996 has a few issues to watch out for like any other Porsche ! People need to stop giving these cars a hard time. Although I do think recently this is starting to change. I’ve had a 996 for the past 11 years and recently put it up for sale but then couldn’t let it go when I found a buyer! What a great car for the money. I still prefer the interior of the 996 to the nasty silver plastic trim of the 997. If you don’t have one, buy one quick before the prices go up as everyone else realises they are a great analogue car where you control it and not a computer !

I had a model one my dad bought me as a kid in red . I’m always drawn to cars I loved as a kid/late teenager. I had a purple nismo r34 gtr model too - somehow don’t think I’ll ever get one a those though 🤣 great review, absolutely loved it

My F10 M5 Competition has been garaged for 4 yrs with 10,000 miles on a CTEK however last week on start up it idled at 4,000 rpm and when selecting drive it shot up to the red line (8,000) it has over 86 faults from the OBD2. I'm seriously considering a diet of Semtex and fertiliser..

I hope this channel blows up. Really like the presentation and presenter.

My dream car. I like it in black though.

Great review! I recently sold my 03 996 Turbo and got into a 17 Maserati Granturismo Sport. The Mas is an astonishing car that's beautiful from every angle, sounds glorious and is a fantastically competent GT. But, I'm considering adding a 996.1 Carrera 2, as I love the simplicity of the design and the .1 headlights. If I do it, it'll be the mirror image of yours with the black on black. I look forward to the full review of your car and everything that you love about it.

Great review, very insightful
