Excellent work Sylvain. Very good point about the modifications. Even minor things can really improve the experience of the 996. Slightly louder mufflers, plenum + intake resonator removal, 997 shifter kit, sway bars, suspension. These may sound like a lot but they don't change the look of the car yet provide substantial improvement in the driving experience. Carry on & enjoy your Carrera!
I owned a 996 40th Anniversary back in 2004-05, and I will be looking for a 996 to modify... I'm falling in love with the 996 again!
Marwan - although it was many years ago, do you recall the number of your old 911 40th? I own Nr. 0711. We have a Registry owners group you would enjoy being part of (free thing for fun). Visit us at www.40jahre911.com and facebook.com/40jahre911.
996 is the best looking Porsche in my opinion, love mine🏁
That glaring sunlight carving the canyons was scary.
My first (and only, up to now) ride in any real fast car was in a 996 C4 and i loved every second of it!
Amazing car, love it with all of my heart.
Excellent video, keep the car, the value will rise. Totally underestimated. I like the break scene so much!
This guy can drive! Great video👍👍
Awesome video. Your car is stunning and the editing rather good! Keep it up ;)
Hi! Nice 996! Good video, thanks for sharing.
Can it get even better? :D I mean, nice driving, nice video shots, good music, superb interior color, twisty roads.. :)
Great video. Captures the sheer joy of driving.
Beautiful roads! Can’t wait to upgrade my 996 headers
You had a Caterham and now a 996. Me too!! Such a difference but equally great cars.
Stellar car over the road. One of the truly misunderstood cars of our time. It's a thoroughbred !
Magnificent video. Well done.
this is a classic. well done!
Thanks for the click info. I have B16 PSS10 kit waiting in a box.
I love the red interior!
Nice vibe!
thank you for sharing. Great video, less talk!!! Just wish the other youtube videos would show more of the car, then the owner faces
This car sounds awesome!
I am looking to buy my first Porsche. Starting with a 996.
Did you get one yet?
Nice work. Steering wheel looks to be a fun mod.
Great video, nicely done!
what exhaust do you have on this? i have a 1999 996 and looking to get something more aggressive. was thinknig about the fabspeed supercup exhaust
Le volant est absolument superbe! Bonne idée de l'avoir changé, ça lui donne un petit air rétro qui lui va vraiment très bien. Et l'intérieur rouge, du meilleur effet!
Great video! I love the interieur and choice of mods! :) Working on a project with my dad rn! Were considering a 944Turbo, 996, Boxster/Cayman 981
996 dirt cheap and its a 911
Really enjoyed this vid. Makes me want to go out again like that. I stopped because I always came back up my driveway feeling guilty. Can I try again, maybe more track days in the mix. Thanks ayain
The roads and the POV camera like that, remind me of NFS Porsche 2000. Nice Car!
Hi Sylvain, last summer I put my B16 PSS10 kit in my 996 C2. I also have Eibach AR-bars and Powerflex bushes (just like Jethro Bovington has in his). I wonder which setting you use in your PSS10? I started from front 5 and rear 6 and step by step went to 8 and 9. I ended up at 6 and 8 but I am not entirely happy with the set up. Compared to the OEM standard the car is less stable going straight. It is good in corners. In straights he car does not like grooves at all. It seems to go too easily onto diagonal corners. I believe I have a little too stiff AR-bars (now at softest) and a little too much negative camber now. My ride height is 126 mm in front and 135 at rear.
The front damper curve is not quite what I’d like. The 911 does not tolerate hard bump setting as the front starts to bounce due to the big weights over the rear axle. However, with PSS10 with soft setting the cut-off valve does not really come in to play. It only comes at higher settings like >7. The rear seems to prefer quite stiff setting and it doesn’t require so much cut-off IMO.
Please, share your experiences.
Great car! How do you find the stiffness on the PSS10? I nearly ordered those for my 996, but went with the Ohlins R&T instead for nearly the same price. Spring rates are much higher than the PSS10 but I hear the DFV shocks make it livable day to day... or so I hope!
Very nice
Great vid ! No dialog , no IMS or headlight discussion . Shows the essence of a 911. Love my 996 and glad people beat the price down. I may buy a second one.
Another great video! In which part of France do you drive, and at what time was this filmed?
nice car !! i like 996
Nice feel to your video. Sometimes we just need to let the flat six tell the story.. I will be traveling to Rome then Orvieto. I plan on running the Nuremburg Ring and I cant wait. Any advice?
Underrated car! What anti-roll bars have you paired with the PSS10?
I love that Boxster Red interior! That's tough to find here in the states.
Re trim!
Not unloved. Automotive excellence.
The 964 was unloved for many many years as well.
Amazing video! Where did you get that steering wheel? It is beautiful. I have a silver 996mk1 also, and I would love to have something a little more old school like that. I can't find it on their site.
Got the steering wheel! They were great to work with. I am very excited to install it soon! Thanks
Hi Sylvian, great video. What spec is the car? 3.4 /3.6? What milesage? Did this replace the Caterham?
Keep up the good work with the videos. They are very enjoyable. I have a Caterham Superlight No. 106 (1.6 K Series built in 2000); but you have got me looking at adverts for 996s!
Excellent video,nice roads too. I am English living in the Vaucluse, previous Porsches: Ruf 911 turbo and then 993 carrera 2 supercharged, highly modified. I am now retired so my budget only allows for a 996 which I would like to "outlaw" but will I be disappointed after the aircooled cars !!
It was a 930 turbo which was very lightweight with circa 400bhp !
next build already going on? Which region in france do you drive/film? Big thumbs up!!!
Très Jolie Pub
pour Minute Maid !!!!
Driving like this on county roads is what these cars are all about! I take mine out for aggressive drives like this every chance I get.
Nive vid......but the "unloved" times are definately over!
Très sympa la vidéo... bravo.Quel est la marque des silencieux??
j'aime bien le petit déj...
2 best friend s
nice ride, how many km's can you do with 1 fuell tank ?
Approximatively 450km max
a lot less if you drive quickly.
*****
mine 400km but i do a lot of short trips.
What year is your 911? Thanks.
1998
Great video of such an under appreciated cars. Could have done without the music and just enjoyed the cars sound track.
Pretty fast on those country roads in the fog, sun in your eyes....find a track.
stop giving away the secret ! it is a great car
Ims original?
Sylvain Carré what brand ?
Sylvain Carré - Retrofit or Solution?
Drives with gloves lmao
I owned one until the ims bearing blew. Never again porsche!
The 996 is the ugliest 911 there is in stock form, but this one sounds amazing and looks like a lot of fun to drive! Thanks for sharing!
you are going to kill someone like that. great car but take it on a track....
This reply of yours is nonsense.
Liz Fisher Frank I agree with you Liz. I know he drives on the track, and drives well, but there were many times that if he met himself coming the other way, on the wrong side of the road around corners, and blinded with sunstrike, when a crash was definitely possible. I love driving and driving fast (mostly on track), but driving fast on public roads requires exceptional care, as well as skill.
