What owners say
"Overall, owners really love the 1996 Porsche 911, particularly praising its handling, power, and classic air-cooled engine. Many appreciate its timeless design and build quality. However, some find it less practical for everyday use and note that it's not the most comfortable ride. Shopping for this car is recommended if you appreciate a true sports car experience."
My friend let me drive this car a bit - its amazing. So much power on tap, and an incredible amount of control.
June 17, 2008Your picture is of a 993 Turbo. I own a 1998 911 Carrera 2S, manual transmission, which has the same body, but not as powerful. These cars are spectacular and expensive for that reason. One of the best air cooled cars. Buy one if you can find a good one!!
February 5, 2021Fun every time you get in it, beautifully built, fantastic performance and handling and not too ridiculously expensive to run. The Targa roof gives you the best of open top running but without the security compromises and the TIPEC owners club is good fun too. Totally recommended! And if you think it's not hard core enough, my suggestion is to buy a crap everyday car, then only drive the Porsche for the good times. Then you'll never get anywhere near it's limits on the road and give yourself a thrill every time you use it.

September 5, 2008This is one of the last of the classic air-cooled 911's and rapidly becoming more collectable and valuable than the newer 996 water-cooled models. Its quite old fashioned in ergonomics and interior appearance, but once you get used to it its a great car. Not super-fast performance, but handles well enough for a cabriolet, especially if you fit a strut bar to stiffen the front. Bullet proof build quality.
August 10, 2008The 993 is my favorite car. I owned one years ago and knew I would get another one some day. I stumbled on this one almost by accident. Very low mileage (39K) for a 28 year old car. The paint, leather and soft top are in perfect condition. I love the air-cooled engine and the cars handling. A joy to drive.
January 20, 2024The last of the handmade air-cooled Porsches. The new ones may be faster, but the 993 series Porsches are the best cars they ever built.
April 9, 2008This was my first Porsche, love it till the last day. Handling, acceleration and overall look of this car is amazing. Would recommend a 993 anyday, even if its 12 years old !
January 9, 2008No dislikes . Lovve everything about it . I use it everyday for commuting to work, taking kids to school, going to groceries even to SAMS CLUB. What else do you want from a car. Okay maybe its not the best car for snow
February 24, 2013Buy 911 993 (1993-1997). Best car Porsche ever built. So much better looking then 996.
February 24, 2008This car is great and would love to own it. The one that I drove is the last car and a line of supercars that my uncle owned while he was alive. I didn't get to push the limits in it, so I"m not sure how great it is, but I'm sure it is very good if he owned it.
