Is The Porsche 911 997.1 Cabriolet The Best All-Rounder?

[@pjay3028]

I couldn't agree more, that's an absolutely fantastic all round car. Looks and sounds better than the gen 2. Cabriolet adds a degree of enjoyment and engagement that you don't get on the coupe, but just as comfortable and refined with the roof up. (It's not 240bhp though, it's 325ps/ 321bhp/240 KW.)

Love your summary overview of the 997.1. Also agreed with the cabriolet adding an extra layer of enjoyment. Thank you for the bhp correction :)

After watching this video to completion this guy is spot on. The 997.1 is, without a doubt, a steal of a bargain relative to other 911's. I grew up with Porsche 911s and have owned a number of them myself. This model is my personnal favorite. If you like driving, this is THE car to own. Pure pleasure and a smile on your face!

[@invictusporsche]

Thank you. They are so much car for the money

[@JohnBCrozier]

He got the BHP wrong. It's 325 BHP. Just letting everyone know. I own this model of the same year, 2005

[@Elma2024]

And I believe the S is 355 ?

[@benpenagonzales6014]

The 3.6 is more than 240bhp. That’s like boxster power surely.

2007 4S, I like your enthusiasm. When I am asked about the power of my 3.8, I like to answer: 354 horses plus 1 donkey. And the last can be quite decisive 😊 Open rear spoiler when not driving can kill the beautiful rear of this 911 though. Check the rear of 356 A which we luckily inherited to some extend.

Haha I like your answer, may have to copy it. Hope you enjoy many more miles in yours

Great Vid. Would have loved to hear your view on the closed roof experience in terms of noisyness etc. KR from Switzerland

Hi Michael, thanks for the comment. Will capture that in the coming videos. It isn’t too bad if you are considering buying

[@Elma2024]

I am in the process of buying a 2008 C4S cabriolet. Out of all the 911’s I drove during my hunt, this was my favorite. It felt like a perfect blend of modernity and classic. Maybe I’m just nostalgic

[@invictusporsche]

We are both of the same view, I made a video on a 997.1 c2s and used the words above. I call them modern classics

[@nicksparey9506]

Hard to take seriously when you're stats are so inaccurate, 240bhp 😂

[@chadthunderstroke]

Damn good video 👍

[@invictusporsche]

Thank you Chad. Appreciate the feedback

[@camirocz]

Not 240 hp.It makes 325hp you got it wrong.
