296 hp from a naturally aspirated 3.4, not bad for an engine made 23 years ago, even considering variable cam and all. Beautiful 911, thanks for sharing it..
As much of the fan boys hated the headlights on the 996's, they've aged well. A major reason they have so much hate is that Porsche did not stand behind the IMS issues at the time, having to be pushed to settle in a lawsuit. They could have easily made owners whole and avoided the weak link in the 996's perceived value
I've a 1996 993 C2 iris blue metallic, 66,000 miles, 6-speed manny tranny, varioram, LSD. No CEL, no oil leaks. Multi-show full-concours winner. I do my own maintenance. I'm never selling it.
@fernandorocha-dx1wv TY. I've, literally, been at a red traffic light, and have had someone pull up alongside and shout: "Name your price!" Invariably, it's a middle-eastern gent or Eastern-European. I just smile, nod, and wait for the green light. BTW, 3,000+ RPM, 2nd. gear, as I accelerate away, and watch their expression in my rear view mirror, is priceless. Just sayin'.
@@christophercolumbus8944 driving it. Yes the front end may not be the best looking but damn it drives good for suck a good price compared to the older ones and newer ones. And its got a sexy rear end
