WHY THE PORSCHE 993 CARRERA S IS THE BEST WAY TO SPEND 100 GRAND

[@oibal60]

I've a 1996 993 C2 iris blue metallic, 60,000 miles. Varioram. No CEL. No oil leaks. Six-speed G50 manny tranny. Tip top full concours multi-show winner. I've had people, at a red light, say: "Name your price."

[@ricklee3]

993 c2s or c4s and turbo's with the wider back hips is arguably the best rear end of any car ever made, shame in my country, AUS, it costs more then an arm and a leg, well over $100K US MIN

[@tomrojas6459]

I've a 1997 C2S: It is wonderful!

[@josephdonnelly3169]

The stance on that car is perfect

[@DavidBlalock-n1k]

Opinions differ. Use of the word “stance” is a modern affectation.

[@MyCS-ec7vv]

Cool looks like my 993C4S which i got new the only thing I changed was add the PSS9 looks just like your car

[@cmdeeqtee7057]

Nice.. I chose an Arctic Silver C4s factory debadged. I put a 2s grill on the rear end. Still have mine and do not plan on selling any time soon.

[@heiligerm]

I also have a 993 1996 Cabrio polarsilver with only 54.000 miles. I runs like new, with 18“ technology wheels, full e-seats, ABD, AC, cruise control and the Soundsystem intake and so on. It comes from Minnesota and now it is here in Germany for 10 years. It is my 7 th Porsche after 914/911 SC/Carrera 3.2/964 Look, Boxster 97, Boxster 99, 944 S 2.5L 16V and now the 993 varioram. If you ever come to Germany, please visit our meeting at May 1, biggist european Porsche-Meeting. Regards Michael

[@varishbadul1358]

993 is the perfect 911 if you are looking for a modern driving 911 with a timeless classic look

[@e36boy]

Great car. I have the 993 carrera 2 with Porsche Tequipment RS kit and i love it!

[@Butchrknife]

I have mine in a 96 C4cab with 80.000 miles and I love driving it. I also drive a 03 C4S daily. The bestow both air and water. Around Seattle out.

[@jorgepatricio9775]

Great video!!! Keep producing videos!!! The 993 and the 964 are the most beautifull!!!

[@perrooceaniko2005]

The best air cooled model by far. A feast to your eyes ...

[@claudiodiez55]

I have a 1995 C2 Coupe Since 2014, love it Car for Life.

[@DavidBlalock-n1k]

Congrats! I’m envious. ‘95 is the year to own.

[@161BMW]

Porsche 911 Carrera 2S with Porsche MANUAL Gearbox (993) is one of my favourite Porsches. Not sure how I like floor hinged pedals though.

[@nasajeep]

Floor hinged pedals are great once you get used to them. Honestly, everything else seems foolish once you get a feel for them

[@chorseundgrd]

My favorite Porsche, although I'd have a 993 Turbo S if I was lucky enough to have a choice.

[@TheJagjr4450]

My buddy got the 1997 C2S that BRUMOS had at the NY auto show when they returned to Florida... we took it to the beech when we graduated college in 97. He sold it 15 years ago with 18k miles - Black paint with carbon sills 18" turbo twist wheels and whaletale with motor sound package. WORST LUCK HE HAS... also sold a original black paint 1969 RS Z28 camaro which is worth 200k.

[@911xenon]

Hi Nick. Great video thank you! Would you recommend buying a Carrera S with a tiptronic transmission?

[@Xy-ql9uy]

Top Video! Professional ! Super nice car!!🫡🦾👍

[@gastondeveaux3783]

Porsche is making some amazing cars today, but for sheer styling with performance, the 993 is the summit, never surpassed.

[@danielrichards9783]

I believe the last 993s were built in December 1997, although they were the 1998 model. The factory was retooled for the 996 which were produced in 1998.

[@Casloveskim]

Nice vid! Cool car

[@darrellhyde7978]

Great stuff!

[@stephendarke3219]

Hi NIck, great videos. Excellent recommended modern changes to your C2. Am looking at a 993 C2 Vesuvio edition to buy. Wanted to get your thoughts on the value premium over standard C2

[@Maximus-Termann]

Good morning Stephen, My 993S is Viola metallic, not vesuvio, and I came to it in 2016 (while working at the 919hybrid project in Weissach) over my colleagues at the Porsche Museum in Zuffenhausen. Due to our expected family "extension", I foreseeable will sell it within the next year.

[@BorndetailersTv]

Great video live the 993 best porsche ever made .

[@DavidBlalock-n1k]

“Best?” By what objective measure? No, hardly the best. There are many other Porsche’s that are objectively better (e.g. handle better, faster, more reliable, greater creature comforts, etc) but I can definitely say it’s a car I’d love to own. I think it’s beautiful and I’d love to drive one.

[@vroomkeys]

Nice job on the review 👍🏼🔥 I want a 993 in my car arsenal one day.

[@slater1949]

Why the hell would you want to sell it if you love it so much? I would have to be buried in mine

[@michaelschneider-]

[@zeusmojo9301]

well said Nick.

[@SteveLee007]

Great vid! Is it available for sale?

[@paulmcaleer2736]

A few incorrect things said in this video - they made the Carrera 'S' from the 1997 MY and they produced the model series from very late 1993 until mid 1998.

[@alanwayte432]

Why do you need to point this out..I have a 1996 Carrera S ....and have also owned a 1999 U.K. registered 993...it’s not exactly important...other than making yourself look like a bit of a fool...people dislike a show off .... the child at the front of the class always putting his hand up “sir sir sir” the train spotter saying the grommets used in 1886 differs from the 1885 and 1887....why be that person

I installed a split grill on my C4s. Debadged from the factory.. I can not dream of selling my baby.

[@MrBooboota]

Great video, Nick! I own a guards red '95 993 Carrera 4. My best and most reliable car I've owned for the last 14 years. I have the sports seats (with hard backs) and they are fantastic...but, I never knew they were 10-15 grand (!). I feel kinda bad now since the hard backs have been scuffed (just normal wear and tear...and also because my 2 y.o. sits in the back and loves to put her feet on the hardbacks). If you are in the LA area, hit me up and we can go for a drive up Angeles Crest. :)

[@crissignori7482]

Just less than 4 minutes in and I disagree with a lot of what you have said. I owned a '98 4S with sports seats and swapped it for a mint very low mileage '96 Turbo without sports seats. I find my regular seats to be just great and I don't miss the sports seats. The climate control works beautifully and I would not swap out my steering wheel for a newer model. The S model is a nice car for sure but the Turbo is truly special.

[@ndphamvanbau1]

Totally agree. I have 98' Guard Red with 15k. Everything still OEM.

[@jesselowry]

Fucking awesome piece of machinery! 👍👍

[@uweweimer4150]

Hi Nick, nicely made...good presentation and content....my 2 cents, leave the car as original....else fantastic car....love it, that you as well mentioned the typical Porsche smell, which I cannot get enough....

[@SAMMYJR00777]

great one.....

[@driveit9427]

[@floor993]

If You like this car so awesome much why would you sell it? It sounds more like a car commercial. I have mine 1994- 993/2 for 22 years now, and its still superb because of driving it and good maintenance every year. And yes, perhaps I will sell it in the future......

[@michaelschneider-]

+1 ..This original '98 Carrera C2S (993) owner is taking the coupe to the grave. .. It's 99.% stock

WTF! Why is 993 cost way more than a 2020 Porsche 911 Turbo

[@davehunt3410]

im gonna have to agree with you when it comes to this being one of porsches bests 911's, however, if im spending $100,000 i want it to be completely unadulterated and left alone to bare stock. Making changes to a collectible car that grows in value are the ones that are mostly stock. People are paying that premium to get what was offered back in the day not what exists now. #leaveporschesstock #porscheknowswhattheyredoing #porschesarentatunner #porscheengineersthoughtofeverythingforyou #youarenotaporscheengineer

Good morning from Germany you flat-6-heads 😄🙋‍♂️ I am a Porsche engineer, my name is Jan Kröhl and I am working for Porsche in Weissach since 2004 and in 2016, I bought a very special 993S over my contacts at the Porschemuseum in Zuffenhausen. Up to now, I am the proud owner of one of the most beautifull and amazing cars, ever made! But time goes by and I dare have to say: Due to our family plannings, I will give him away within the next 2 years and with tears in my eyes, but I will sell it, presumed the new owner is matching my pers. expectations ref. a loving and air-cooled engine understanding and reasonable Person ☝️🙂 -> You can`t treat cars like women, cars need your love! And THIS car needs all the love you have 🇩🇪 In Case of having received some contact data, I will provide further information, pictures and details aboout my S

[@michaelschneider-]

@jankroehl ... +1 .. Luv your purchase at the company store; The Porsche museum in Zuffenhausen. .. While not an employee. . In 2000 my USA '98 C2S spent time at the old Werk 1 shop on the factory production grounds. . The Porsche AG Werk 1 technicians installed the necessary TUV RoW bumpers, RoW 6sp gearbox, and M033 spring set only RoW C2S cars received. etc. .. After a year in the country and time to return home, the coupe was shipped via Lufthansa to LAX Los Angeles. .. My hometown of Vail, Colorado was a very long day drive . . . . Fond memories no doubt .... That silver metallic '98 Coupe S is parked in the garage as we speak. . Tchuss, M/S

No thanks.

[@lopaka71]

Have you ever driven a 993? My guess is no because if you did you would know it has nothing to do with power or amenities. After a hard day’s work, 10-12 hours when i drive home this car will put a smile on my face by the time I get home. When you get out and slam the door and i do mean slam the mechanical sound that you hear is sooooo satisfying.
