Review
I have always wanted a 911 for a long time and when I finally got one, I was not disappointed. I have not used the radio as the engine is a joy to listen to through the rev range. Its cornering and braking have to be experianced to be beleived. This car is a must have.

The 2006 C4S Cab is the most enjoyable car I have ever owned! Porsche did this one right by raising the headlights and widening the rear fenders. The power of the S model is perfect. I have owned a Turbo model in the past and would never go back as the 911 S is the perferct balance of power and control. Porsche remains my top pick with the new 997 model now out in a convertible!

My 911 Carrera 4S is my first Porsche and I am awed by the experience. It handles and performs better than anything I ever owned (BMW 750, Jaguar XJRs, Mercedes-Benz 500 etc.) Everything you read about all the improvements made to this model can't come close to the experience of actually driving it. I agree with one other review, If you drive it ...you'll buy it. That's what happened to me!

My 2006 Porsche 911 Carrera S Convertible is silver with the natural brown leather (baseball glove) interior. It is beautiful. I have not had any issues with it, other than my dealership. It sounds good and moves great. The best feature is the PASM & PSM, which make this 911 a comfortable daily driver. This feature alone antiquates pre-2005 models. The S package for $10,000 makes the needed difference. Get the S and get the full leather option as well, for $4800, the rich leather smell and look are awesome. My garage smells like leather and the engine every morning. This car's total price came to $107,000, which is more than I expected but once you are spending $91,500 what's the difference, add the ubgrades and make it a great luxury car. It has a quiet convertible top. This car sounds awesome in a tunnel! There is no wind with the screen and windows up. It has a good navigation system, too.

Having owned 17 cars in my lifetime with most of them being sportscars this is my second Porsche 911 and I have finally found a car that I will purchase for the rest of my life. It is very predictable, even when pushed to the limit, it is fun to drive, and the sound of the engine is pure pleasure. But the best thing of all is that it can be used as a daily driver unlike many exotics. Why only use your sports car on the weekends? If there is anything to critizise, it would be minor build quality issues, but all warranty related issues are graciously handled by the dealership.

This is the fourth Porsche I have owned and I traded a 2002 Turbo for my new C4S. The handling characteristics are superior along with the ride. There is a sports suspension and exhaust setting that sweetens the tones of the engine even more. The body, which includes a very wide rear held up by 19" wheels looks like it was sculpted by an artist. The sports chrono package, which includes a dash mounted stop watch demonstrates Porsche's ability to evolve without forgetng its roots. The classic "rounded" headlights are back. If you go and drive one, you will buy it.

I am the proud owner of a 2006, 2006 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe! The 997 is AWESOME. It has great brakes, engine, suspension, interior design, and yes
that sexy body style with an attitude! I love driving the 997; its superb in response, handling, and breaking. I feel like a combat fighter pilot on a mission. Talk about stress therapy, drive a 997 and feel invigorated every time you take the perfect apex. Driving the 997 will make you a believer of the slogan, Porsche there is no substitute."

This is the car I have been wanting for years and I am not dissapointed. This 2006 911 is rapidly becoming my daily driver. The more I drive it the more I appreciate the quality and the experience it provides as well as being very user friendly for the daily errands etc....but when you need to get on it hold on because it can hang with the best. This is my first Porsche, but it won't be my last. Thumbs up to Porsche for the ultimate vehicle.

My 2006 Carrera Canvertible performs well and is very fun to drive. I love the Tiptronic shifting capabilities which makes the car more fun to drive while not making my commute troublesome. Its suspension is a bit bouncey on the highway as expected for the sportiness. it is fast enough for most anyone and fun enough for me. I have had this car for two days and love it. The lines of the new body style are hot with 911 sportiness shining through.
