the 996 didn´t replace the 964. there was the gorgeous 993 in between which was the last air cooled 911.
38 degrees buddy 😂. Brain scrambled so much I didn’t even realize hahaha
@@TedwardDrives MA chill will do that to ya lol
@@TedwardDriveshi I have Ben watching your videos
The older I get, the better the 996 looks to me. In the era of minimalism full of sharp cuts and edges, I appreciate those goofy round happy shapes more and more. The body looks really nice and that's gotta be the best rim choice possible for this car, it just looks so matchy and complete all together. I also think it was perfect weather conditions for the shoot of this spec. I'm gonna end it here because the more I think about particular parts of it that I like, the more I fall in love with it. Genuinely thank you for showing this one, that was super fun to watch.
porsches 911 from late 90s and early 2000s are probably my favorites
The 996 is finally having its moment. The curves, headlights, even that interior is retro-futuristic. Love it!
I've always loved this body-style. The simplicity and curves are just magnificent.
There’s no simplicity about it, even compared to modern Porsches.
i dont think its simple, but it like it. always loved those styling elements more than the default 996 carrera. idk why people didnt like those front lights.
Props for doing the drive top down in 38 degrees. That's cold. Also, a lesson here-- always spec convertibles with heated seats and steering wheels. I optioned both in my 718 Spyder and, even in the mid-Atlantic climate, can get (nearly) 365 day top down driving.... which is how that car should always be driven.
0:10 this angle here is beautiful to just sit back and look at the car ; also I can imagine how amazing this would sound with full exhaust system . Catless setup omg 😳
Can't Believe 2004 is Already 20 Years Ago That's Crazy
The 996 will always have a special place in my heart. Thanks to playing and replaying over and over nfs Porsche unleashed.
That was such a neat concept for a game, I wish somebody would run with that concept today.
YESS! same here. Loved that game so much, I wish they would bring it back. I was around 8 when the 996 came out, so for me this is the 911.
I thought I was the only one xD
One of the best driving games of all time. Thanks for the memories.
Same here! I wish they made a new version of it with all the new Porsche models until today.
On the PS1 😂 why did I never realise that was a need for speed game
i love the 996 Porsche, they look timeless :)
I was of the age where I missed the 993 due to being too young, but the 996 and the internet configurator and being in high school & college… this was the Porsche I wanted from being a young adult. Now that I can theoretically afford one, would love to grab one someday.
the rear end in the c4/4s looks amazing in this generation
I drove my first 996 last week! Happened to be a cab Carrera with the 6 speed; I totally agree with your point that the clutch is tactile with a bunch of feedback even without added throttle response. Great vid!
996's are my favorite. My friends father bought a new Yellow 911 Turbo back in 2001 and he gave me a ride in it. It was the first time I've ever been in a fast car and it was glorious. It also was one of the most comfortable vehicles I've ever sat in. The seats were surprisingly super super comfortable. My favorite 911 by far.
I think the 996 is finally coming into its appreciation era, especially the C4S! From the rear end, it's probably the best looking 911 ever.
Easily, that long bar taillight and sweeping curves just does something to me. Long live the 996.
My takeaway on the 996 is the price is amazing, the drive is amazing, the styling has grown on me and the M96 motor might be less reliable but it sounds better than the DFI motors in the 997.2.
911 in the snow, we have waited years for this drive-respecting content.
996!😍 Neighbor across the street from us growing up had one in pretty much this spec but a coupe and let me sit in it as a wee lil toddler, and it was that moment when the car bug bit me!
I had a 996 4S and that was the best-sounding, most fun engine out of all the other 911's I had (996 Turbo and 992 T). The top-down enhance the driving experience, especially after the fisker mod. I'll buy one of these one day if a good one comes up!! You can do a reversible 2WD conversion by removing the front drivetrain. If it has bore scoring, I wouldn't hesitate to get it rebuilt to 3.8L for ~25k!!
Favorite generation of 911. Controversial opinion for some, I'm sure, but if you know, you know. Perfect mix of rugged old style Porsche and modern drivability. 997 is awesome as well, especially the 997.2, but the vibes of the 996 have never been replicated.
Love the 996, such a gorgeous car and lovely sound!
I have one of these with the sport exhaust and holy moly is it amazing. Even after driving more modern sports cars I always love stepping back into the 996 C4S. Great video!
Convertibles in the winter are a blast. Just had my E46 M3 top-down in the snow in Maine... perhaps the best way to enjoy that cold-air added power.
props to the period correct bodykit+wing too!
OMG What a beauty ❤
Awesome Video !
911's are just so good.
the graphics are insane!!
This video was so cool, i love that car and the sound is amazing. I've been delaying buying myself a sport car because i don't know what to get between top-down fun, engine noise right to your ears, or the structural rigidity and sexiness of a coupe.
Best generstion of 911 imo
Love that wing 👌
what a beautiful car
Good on you! When I was young my dad would take me on a winter drive to the mountains with our 1963 MGA top down heater blasting and it was a ball. Now I do the same thing with my 996 C4s cabriolet with my grandchildren.
This is awesome
I like the car, but I love the drive. I grew up in Acton and moved halfway across the country 30 years ago. The drive around Nagog Hill Rd brought back lots of fond memories as I lived in one of those neighborhoods. Thanks for posting!
more love for the 996!! underappreciated and if you drive one its a IYKYK!
986\996 are aging very well, IMO, and when properly maintain still drive and handle wonderfully. I am biased, though.
Don't worry Tedward, that car is hot stuff! You extremities will be fine! /s
Bravo! Any PORSCHE anytime everyday.
996 - best 911
Very cool (literally)! That one is really nicely specced (full leather, white gauges, aero stuff). I miss my 2000 996, but I don't miss the : leaking RMS, 2nd gear pop out issue, replacing the leaking coolant tank. Etc.
Most under appreciated car of all time. My dad has a C2 manual coupe with a slight exhaust mod and it sings! 997 too soft and 993 is overrated IMO.
wowww
Major props to you for driving with the top down in January in New England! The only way this would have been more New England was if you had a Dunks iced coffee in the cup holder. 😀
Nice looking
I hope your head is not frozen on this cool journey!
Naturally-aspirated for sure, that's how I prefer my Porsches too.
they have a nice 1990 325i, maybe take that one out for a drive next time!
That is indeed Seal Gray. If you want to try a 03 C4 Cab with X51, just come on down to CT. Probably a bit of a beater compared to what youre used to driving though
a dream car ,truly beautiful machine
Important to note, the 997 shifter is a considerable upgrade and bolts right in. I put one in my Boxster S.
I don’t mind 996, and I’m not a huge fan of Cabs. However, this one looks AMAZING!
Tedward head over to Porsche Westwood and do a drive in their CPO 2021 Macan Turbo. I’m looking to buy one of those and was watching your old videos from about 6 years ago with Zach Sweat there.
Just an observation, it looks like the rearview mirror is shared out of my car (2005 Acura TL).
1:45 Yo , this front end b Roll is beautiful!! . That bumper and lip are so beautiful. Is this a all stock bodykit ??
I can appreciate that Tedward has a penchant for Porsches, but as an owner of a DB 11 and a 2007 Vantage, can’t say that Porsche knocks me out. I like my bar of soap in the shower, not on the road.
Always sounds better without a turbo
You drove by my house in this video. I drive a 370 Z and this is my favorite route in town for spirited driving. I am a drone pilot and I do filming services, if you ever want to work together, please shoot me a message.
Headlights
Have you ever reviewed the 2009 SL65 AMG?
the cabrio looks great here, but I can't say I'm a big fan of the current 992 cabrio
Driving on summer tires in those temps is just nuts. I'm surprised you didn't have issues with traction
damn.... i wanna be like you man
That is not a factory aerokit. That's a GT2-style decklid, aerokit looks much different. Front lip is an aerokit-style lip, though it's not exactly right as it has an almost gurney at the bottom of it that's incorrect.
Are these fried egg headlamps? I thought it was pre-facelift style that was the fried egg, with amber turn signal doing runny yolk thing.
Tedward, did you not notice the heated seat buttons near the shifter? I think you probably would have appreciated them being on 😂
I know better than to touch brittle plastic buttons on a 996 haha..it may have shattered =p
👍💯
What camera do you use
I hope that beauty got a detailed underbody wash to get rid of the salt
of course. It’s not amateur hour. We live in New England 😆
@@TedwardDrives It looks very cold there, can‘t believe you actually had the top down LOL
Don't need the top down in the winter. No 40 degrees isn't warm enough
Sorry Ted, but they are not the fried egg headlights, which came on the 996.1. These headlights are the 996.2 ones, the same as those on the turbo. Common mistake.
.1 is runny egg, .2 is fried
Oh my hell was that engine bay clean for a 20 year old car with 14K miles.
Not for sale? Hopefully someone has the stock rear deck lid! Great cars though!
It’s for sale
@@TedwardDrives Have a link? It was not on their website.
This is a .2 and does not sport any "fried eggs" the amber cars are actually quite rare! Long live the fried eggs
not a fan of convertible porsches at all, but that's coming from someone who could barely afford a 914.
If it's top comes off, it should have been designed from the ground-up as such, ie. S2000, MX5. Otherwise, leave it as a coupé.
back in the days this car always looked so ugly to me, now i cant get over it lol
They are tightly bolted together and the interiors are rattle free. The design is what gets everyone but most of the design language from this era was meh anyway from a lot of auto makers. I can't recall a single interior that is stunning from this period.
there are plenty, that’s the beauty of automotive enthusiasm. You just gotta know where to look.
996 replaced the 993, not the 964.
almost as if theres a pinned comment about this and me explaining that I was freezing cold and brain scrambled lol
@@TedwardDrives as a fellow Porsche D*ckhead I have to take advantage of every possible opportunity to be a know-it-all.
LFGGGGGG
3:13 I can only handle the fried egg headlights in the clear version like this, and I think they look great. With the amber indicators it's a bit 90s nasty
Those are not the fried egg headlights! They're the 996.2 headlights same as on the turbo.
Cant hear a thing compare to the gt3 rs
These cars would benefit greatly from modern headlights and tail lights. There must be an aftermarket option available
Nah, headlights like that would defeat the purpose of a 996. If you want round headlights, why not just get a 993 or a 997?
Car needs more miles, 14k = rookie numbers
Not a fan of the wing or the ground effects. Looks ghetto lowered as well. Why do people need to diminish otherwise great cars?
Nooooooom
I know this is totally an ad. I just want to know how much.
What?
Ah, the 996. The AutoZone Aftermarket 911.
cool car, surprisingly my 06 rx-8 is faster than this 911
Coupe is 10X better looking than the Cabriolet. The Cab screams "I'm a dentist and can't really drive this thing..."
Perception buddy ; u 🧢’n cause a dude like me will never allow ppls opinions to pick a car for me 🤣
Yet, you own neither.
That seems like a thing that’s entirely in your head
@@SlaxsvoHope you do a double take bro
@@fhowland Not "in your head" ... just look up 996 valuations, the coupes have higher values.
why is this car on these roads...no way lol. this stuff is cancer for metal
Looks super funky, not the good kind
Hello can you make video with bmw m4 F82 please?
