Why I sold my Porsche 991 Carrera S.
มุมมอง 29K3 ปีที่แล้ว
The Porsche 911 is arguably the world's best known and most beloved sports car. I was lucky enough to own the a 991 generation Porsche 911. A Carrera S - the last of the naturally aspirated Carreras. 400HP, PDK and endless grip. Plus - to my eye - a gorgeous realisation of the 911's iconic shape. So why did I sell it?

Enjoyed the review. Great filming and well thought out dialogue. Well done.
997.2 with a Hueur autavia chrono. That’s the combination my friend
Hah! Well spotted!
Nice 981! What's the watch? Breitling?
@@logwind thanks so much. Miss that car! Watch is a Heuer Autavia on black nato strap
although i do like the whale tail but on a regular Carrera, it does look out of proportion
Hmm I thin the proportions work. I love the whale tail on a Carrera but ultimately preferred it without, hence why it's now gone.
What's the colour of the car?
Forest Green Metallic
Hello, interesting video! I wasn't happy with my pss10 either on my modified c2, so this summer i visited some specialist in Northern Italy, Bolzano, that are bilstein importers and specialists in rebuilding. They realized the weak point on the ride was mostly on little bounces, holes were fines. So they rebuilt completely the inner part, installing harder springs and the ride drastically changed: the car is way more alive, fun and precise. Just not more comfortable. But I'm very happy with the result. The only thing hasn't improved much is how the car handles bumps at high speed, but that's more a 964 problem as well...
Interesting! I did think about a rebuild but, for me the ride was too stiff/crashy. Glad to hear you've gotten a result you're happy with.
@lastrasp i had the same feeling. Now it's a bit better, but off course not yet my 100% idéal goal. Still quite cheap 1k, and a good result!
Nov 2024 was brilliant
Sure was! Mega event.
I didnt get it, did you actually had to get a non whale lid or did you just remove the whale tail and add a grill ?
Full lid. Makes it easier to swap in and out.
What color is that car, Arctic Silver Metallic?
I think so.
Absolutey stunning car and great video. 🎉 The BBS look amazing. Unlike in many other cars the rear doesn’t have rather narrow outer rings. Love the proportions when comparing front and back. Differences appear to be minor. What are the exact dimensions on your’s?
Thanks. I love the BBS. Never get tired of them. Full specs are in my video, outlining the E88's.
What is the colour called?
It’s Signal Orange.
There is no such thing as a cheap porsche, the cost of parts and labor will cost many times the purchase price, also down time-figure 30 to 35 percent of the time the vehicle be in repair, it is built of low quality parts which will fail.
Interesting perspective. A friend of mine had one which, for years, was spent driving hard on weekends with very little outlay required other than regular maintenance. But I agree that you always need to buy a Porsche with a view that there'll be unexpected costs. Thanks for the comment!
Can't wait for the next event Nov 10, 2024
Yep, I reckon it's going to be a ripper!
Great vid, as always 👍
Thanks again!
I'm from Borneo. I had a 2001 996 GT3. And now just bought a mint low mileage 996 40th Anniversary. It was a no brainer - it drove lovely, felt tight, looks amazing. I jumped. Ok, I lost a lotta $ trading in my modded M140i but it had to be done. No regrets. Love your reviews - Casual, candid, honest, descriptive. Thanks.
Thanks so much for the comment and feedback! I love the 40th anniversary 996 (hoping to make a video on one soon)!
Do you know the clasp on your omega is upside down?
Two things… 1. No I didn’t know. 2. How on earth did you spot that!? 😂
In the UK we can get cheap ratty Boxsters for £3000. Pretty O.K. ones £5k and £7k on gets you some really spot-on examples. Drives better than the 3.4 996 I had before. Just remember they have 911 running costs, even though they are a fraction of the price. Very light car by modern standards: 200kgs less than a MK1 TT Quattro.
Great point re running costs. It's always the danger with these 'cheap' Porsches - deferred maintenance.
Thanks for the nice video. I have a 964 c2 heavily modified, but the first thing i did it was to remove the 18s wheels from the previous owner to very light 17s. I'm curios about your impressions on the handling, I'll check the wheels video too, but personally i found the 964 with 17s lighter to drive and more playful.
Really smart question. I was worried about this exact issue as I’m extremely fussy about ride quality. Previously the car was fitted with replica Cup 1s (17s). For me, ride quality improved with the E88s. I’d put it down to a combination of weight and tyre. The wheels are much lighter than the Cup 1s they replaced. And the PS4S tyres I think offer better ride quality than the much older PS2s.
@@lastrasp interesting thanks. I'm curious to try some more road going tyre as well, since so far i only used ps cup 2. In both 18s and 17s. They are amazing for grip but maybe not great on uneven surfaces.
Yes crazy
Agreed!
I am thinking of getting a 2001 boxster. Low miles, excellent shape. It has a new battery and the owner has doesn’t know how to reset the radio. Can you help with this? Thanks
Sadly I can’t help with that one. I only had this car for two days I didn’t need to do any kind of resets while it was with me.
Enough said. Picking mine up on Tuesday!
Amazing stuff. You're going to love it!
can't find the Sleepers Sleepwalker Short Shift Kit. Did they stop selling that?
It'd be worth emailing them to find out. The other option would be to go with the Fister Motorsports SSK. Darin's products are top notch as is his service / responsiveness.
@@lastrasp ty!
Use the word "stance", and all your credibility is gone.
Thanks for watching anyway and for the comment too. Cheers.
Have you found the cup holders yet? 😂
@@JakesPizza4000 yeah yeah. Everyone thinks I don’t know about the cup holders 😂. Like I say in the video, the cup holders are great. They’re just no good for a water bottle.
My previous Porsches have been, 911 sc, 930, 996 turbo, 997 c2s, 981 S all manuals Deciding between one of these 981 gt4 or 991. Carrera S or 991.2 T As you have owned both thoughts?
Hey David I can't comment on the T as I'm yet to drive one unfortunately (soon hopefully!) The 991.1S and GT4 definitely have a different feel from each other. For me I would say if you are looking to continue the engaging feel of the older cars, the GT4 manages to straddle the old and new beautifully (in a way that I don't think the 991.1 does). That said, the 991 with its NA engine does definitely excite. Ultimately it depends how you're going to use the car. If the car had to be a daily, 991 with PDK for sure. If it's a weekend fun car, GT4 or T. (my opinion only 😉).
are all the mods from the "gt-racing" website? Love the whale tail.
I think the 996 Gen 1 with aero kit is one of the best looking 911 The taco rear spoiler is unique and best looking
Yeah I agree. Looks so good!
I think history will show that the 996 GEN 1 - will be an especially desired collectible 911 It is the very first of the new water cooled generation … generally, the very first of something is collectable … On top of that, it is a light, nimble handling 911 - many feel the funnest to drive of all 911
Of all the 911s I’ve driven I absolutely love the balance of smaller size and agility with some modern tech in the 996.
is this both the primary and secondary muffler?
Secondary only.
Nice video, looking for a 964 (to replace my eTron GT… yeah going from electric to air-cooled), you got a subscriber
Big change! You’re going to love it.
i don't like the tip. The PDK, yes, but not the tip. thanks for the video. you caused me to consider a 996. The main problem is that the 997s have dropped in price. getting down to peak depreciation in the curve, so to speak. If you've got a 996 with the IMS service, then it's a matter of preference. And price. would I enjoy a 996S 6mt as much as a 997S 6mt? well there's about a 50% price difference so that's probably the main reason to choose the 996. since it's comparable.
I’m definitely not a fan of the tip. But I was still surprised by how well it worked. And, at the end of the day I loved driving this car. As for 996 v 997 it’s completely personal preference. I love both.
@@lastrasp haha, that's a great point, why just choose one or the other when you can have both? 😂 well, it is a 911 after all. I'd like to get a 996.2 6MT. with a look-alike aero kit, maybe some tech art stuff, they do look fabulous. The stock body styling is a bit too tame, I think they need some aftermarket help.
Im a nurse but owned a 2000 Boxter thanks to my previous job. Of all the many cars Ive owned. This was the only car that made me smile every time I got in it. At the time (2005), I let my friends borrow it because I wanted everyone who would never get the chance to own something like this have a go. My best mate borrowed it to take his daughter to her prom. Its been a long time now since then but Id buy another Boxter but would have to be a newer model but maybe not for all road surfaces in Australia.
Thanks so much for the comment. Sounds like you’ve had an incredible experience with your Boxster. I find the suspension in modern day Porsches more than copes with poor road surfaces.
I must give a newer one a ride out when I'm next near society lol. Keep up the great work though. Holding my attention is something not many youtube videos do.
I subscribed
Hey thanks so much!
What is specifically the Best year of 997.2 ?
I always think the later the better. More likely to be lower k's (generally speaking) and any production issues at the beginning of the generation have been sorted. This is a general thought only though. Ultimately I'd say get the one with the best spec, lower mileage if possible and one without any deferred maintenance.
991.1 CS is a future classic
I tend to agree!
Hey Andy, I have a low kay 986 Boxster S in great condition. Feel free to hit me up if you ever want to do a follow up video based on a fresher version. Im also in Melb.
Might just do that! I'd love to drive a quality version by comparison.
Was thinking of selling my 996 for 997.2 but scared i will miss the older feel with the stick shift.
I've driven both and there's definitely a leap in the refinement levels. But get a manual and you' be laughing. Even better if you manage to score an S.
"I was a hater when the 996 came out." How old were you when the 996 came out?
I was 24 years old.
I subscribed. Really enjoyed the video mate. From the UK
Hey thanks so much for watching. Really appreciate it.
The 986 was a mass produced car, a Porsche first. BUT it is a pure Porsche. It is a homage to the 550 Spyder. It is a mid engine roadster built by Porsche. Nothing is better than that. As for the base engine, it is designed to be docile at low revs then savage above 4K rpms.Mine is a daily drive because anything else I get into is SH*T.
All very good points. In spite of this particular car's obvious maintenance needs I still loved driving it.
Own a 991.1, Manual with PSE and can't see parting ways...
Hold onto it i say! I wish I'd held on to mine.
Someone telling me to do my homework when I’m watching a video to do my homework is really annoying
If doing your homework is related to Porsches then by all means, keep doing your homework!
I'm buying a 2000 Boxster S this Saturday. What song are you playing in this video? It sounds like an amazing driving tune.

Dizzie by September. Enjoy the Boxster S!
Ah nice one!
In Turkey the owners are asking for 300.000 Euro for a 911T in average...what is the price in your country?
Definitely expensive these days. I had the opportunity to buy this car and wish I had done it! Approx $200K and up for these now.
A tiptronic 😂😂😂😂😂 Junk
Respectfully disagree. As I say in the video, it wouldn't be my first choice but I still enjoyed this car immensely.
I miss my 964 and 997
Great combo!
Hand raised - now I probably have a Turbo and I am in love.
Many of us would raise our hands if we're honest. Just yesterday, I found myself in a conversation with a friend about going halves in a very clean 996 manual coupe.
Where could I bring my Porsche Boxter to have convertible top troubleshooted, the tops mechanically won’t do anything ! Like it not getting power
Depends where you're located. I'd find a reputable, independent Porsche shop and take it to them. You could also take it directly to your local Porsche dealer.
996 is the best. 997 is based on the 996 and has unique GT1 headlights
Driving this car certainly made me love the 996 more!
A 997.2 C2S is the Porsche that I’d choose
Hard to argue with that. A C2S with the extra power would be excellent!
