Nothing short of amazing
I have always been in search of a car that offered the right combination of awesome performance at a high but not astronomical price and that had great curb appeal. Well, the Porsche 911 Turbo with the X50 performance package is nothing short of incredible. For the money, you cannot find anything more impressive than a Porsche 911 Turbo X50. Good safety features including 4 wheel drive, and ESP (PSM in Porsche's lingo), which make the car much safer in risky situations and allows novice drives to drive it with confidence. Blazing speed, which according to manufacturers' specs, make it one of the fastest production cars in the world.
2002 996 Cab
This has been a great car. I looked at 997s but, for the money, the the 996 seemed like the best buy. It's an everyday driver and I drive it from Austin to Dallas every week for work. A lot of fun; surprising economy; very comfortable seating.
2002 C2 Cab - 4th 911
My 4th 911, first water cooled and the best of the lot. Reliable and an absolute blast to drive even around town. There is nothing like a 911, especially a rag top with the top down. I bought a museum quality car and keep it that way as a pleasure car. When I take it out I feel the bit of celebrity a Porsche 911 brings to the road. I love the power top and the complex way the rear deck comes up to hide it, but it squeaks when going up and down and has a small intermittent rattle. No real problem. Hope to own a 911 until I die and would be buried in one but it would be a shame to deprive someone else of the pleasure of driving the car.
996 tt x50
My fifth porsche including the 993 tt. This car removed much of the rawness of the car. The x50 package made an enormous difference. Although porsche claims 450 hp for the car, I have seen it test on a dyno closer to 500 hp. porsche is well known for understating their cars numbers. Wickedly fast with many creature comforts. No cars I have driven have come close to the shear power i feel when driving The x50 package is well worth its hefty pricetag. Definately. I understand that the gemballa exhaust will push it over 500 hp. A definate keeper
Porsche - is it worth the money
Excellent performance, fun to drive. Quality is a different issue - manual shifter is not very smooth (dealer claims it responds as spec'd). Blew rear main seal at 12,000 - dealer does not stock the parts (claim porsche needs specific VIN before sending replacement part - does this mean they are aware of a major manufacturing process problem ?) - takes weeks to get. Radio & cassette player are bogus
