      It sounds like a car that you probably won't modify being a manual and low miles but over time you never know. There are plenty of bolt on mods that are upgrades that are worth investigating to improve the performance of an already great car.

    Having bought a 996TT recently, I can't agree more with Alan and his superb car! As Scott mentioned my 993 in Dxb; due to Covid boredom I also installed the bell works paddle shifter, and man, together with my 4.0L upgrade, does it makes a difference! I just didn't liked the (far away) paddle position in combination with my dished Momo steering wheel. So i did my own paddles, located closer to the wheel, easy to do and now easier to reach, which is important on the track. And Scott, i promise the 996 will stay stock ... ... mostly :P

    • @OutlawGarage

    Lobster claws (strictly "forks") are 10kg not 15kg, not bad for 19 inch wheels. They're about the lightest Porsche wheel there is for these cars. I eventually found the OZ 18s to be 8.7kg, so slightly lighter, but an inch smaller.

    adore this car Alan !! I just bought a 10/97 built manual 996 Carrera and it is a real joy. Am looking into the weight reduction now too. Can i ask the size / offsets of the wheels you have please, I think they absolutely suit the car perfectly

      18x8.5 ET53 & 18x11 ET63
      Tyres - Front 235/40/18. Rear 295/35/18
      Shocks, springs and spacers make the difference too… Cheers Alan.

    I own a 99 996 coupe and I wish I had as much enthusiasm for the car as others do. It's my fault because in 2015 I set out for a 70s - 80s air cooled SC but settled for the 996 based on it being less than half the price. My question to all 996 owners is all the love for the 996, is it mostly based on the price? My issue is mostly related to my belief that older and vintage is just plain cooler and trumps all modern, and in my view, the 996 is too big and too modern.

    • @OutlawGarage
      @OutlawGarage  11 місяців тому +1

      A 996 and a 911 SC are very very different cars. I think it’s all perspective and the drivers choice. Yes the 996 is a bigger water cooled car but it’s so small compared to the newer 911’s.
