996 forum

Why would you ever buy a 996 in the first place!!!

Look how civil our discourse is here. That ought to tell you everything you need to know about buying that minivan without a backseat...

For a purely technical forum with none of the camaraderie found here, RennTech.org. It is excellent for accurate diagnostic and DIY repair details but highly moderated and dry as a bone. I see JFP in PA and other pro wrenches in there often.

I'll get one for the same reason I got my 986.
Because!
The 996 makes just as much sense as my Boxster. But I'm not getting rid of my Boxster.

I got main for the extra 2 inches in the seat travel (without rubbing against the roll bar) and for the extra 115 Hp :dance:
Unfortunately I don't have my Boxster anymore, but this is just a matter of time until I get it back.
And when I say get it back, I mean buying my first Boxster back from my friend.

For me, it's mostly the ponies. If it doesn't handle quite as well as my 986S, it really doesn't matter much. I'm not driving the Boxster to its maximum capabilities anyhow.
