Everything written about this modern classic sports car is true.
An elegant machine whose performance matches the driver's ability at every turn.
Current year models from any manufacturer somehow lack the spirit embodied in this car.
You must drive one to understand.

Beauty and the Beast in one car
In 10 year of ownership:
1. Maintenance items: brake pads, oil, filters, dist caps and rotors, belts, lots of tires, hood and deck lid shocks, wiper blades, 1 battery
2. Repairs: light switch, AC servo motor, temperature sensor.
Last of the air cooled Porshes. Still beautiful None like it. People still razz me for driving a Porsche... even one that's 10 years old, because it looks new.
Takes maintenance to keep it running well, but you hear about 993 air cooled engines going 250K miles.
On the road, you feel like a race car driver... and then later the car is as gentle as a kitten going to the mall.

Excellent
Absolutely incredible. This is how a car should be made.
This car is the best car I have ever driven and I have driven them all! Reliability is excellent. The car starts with one key-turn.
Styling is timeless! You know you are in something special when you drive this car. The car feels like it has its own personality and responds differently to every weather condition. She runs cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
I wish we could go back to making "real" cars like the 993 Porsche. Once the car is at its optimum engine temperature, you feel it transform into the most incredible car ever made. Absolutely incredible.
I only drive mine from April to late November, although it is known to be great in snow.
The car is superb. If you can find one, buy it!
