Nicely done. 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.

Best looking car Porsche ever made. And last of the real 911. New ones are fast and furious but they're huge and completely different cars. Kind of a rebranded cars, not really the same car at all (as the 1964-1997). These were still 80% hand made. Cheers.

Well said, Sir.

Actually the 99 (98 build) 996s were also hand built along side the 993s. I have both air and water. Both have advantages and disadvantages.

@@SF_Native Wow. Really? I thought they started producing 996 only after the new production line came. It was based on Boxter.

From the engine I can tell that it is a 96 on model, it produces 282 hp 250 LB FT.

What about it gives that away? Not being sarcastic, genuinely want to learn what the tell-tale signs are. Would appreciate the insight!

From 1996 on, Porsche introduced VarioRam induction system to improve low and mid range torque. Therefore the top of the engine is different.@@carcaveofficial

I have a ‘97 993, coupe, six-speed, in Forest Green Metallic, and my older brother looked at it closely one day (he’s a former Porsche mechanic and owned numerous Porsches) and compared it to his ‘12 997.2 C4S, and then told me: “Your 993 seems a lot more 911 than my 997.2.” I’ll never forget him saying that. It rang bells. And honestly, I believe he’s right. In 10, 20, or even 30 years, most probably won’t care about a 997.1, 997.2, 991, or even a 992, etc. They’ll still admire and desire the looks, sounds, smells, and undeniable thrilling driving experience of the air cooled 911s. 964’s and 993’s being at the head of that pack. But this is just my opinion.

Only time will tell, but I can gaurantee that speed yellow 987.2 2.9L boxsters that are 6-spd with the optional sport chrono are going to be multi-million dollar cars.
