Welcome to 993 ownership...it is a wonderful car, however, you will not be exempt of the dreaded secondary air injection issues, as your mileage is approaching the point. Just as Boxsters have their issues, all 3.6 993 engines will suffer from this problem at some point in time.

I suggest you go over to the Pelican boards and use the search feature to learn more.

I've always admired the styling of the 993 . I wish Porsche would revisit it's design language in future endeavors .

Tell us about the fun factor?

Is it more or less fun than the 986? If the fun is equal, how is it different?
