The Sat Nav is rubbish and you need to travel light

My C4s — Performance is very very good :) Handling and brakes are awesome. Looks gorgeous. I love it. Only had it a while so cant comment on reliability etc. The Tiptronic gearbox seems excellent. Came with a hard-top for the winter. Fuel consumption is better than I expected.

Pros

This car was built for drivers!!!!   Handles like a dream.   corners  well.   Stops on a dime.  Turns on a dime.

Cons

Not much of a back seat, really not made for more than 2.  Expensive to have worked on however never had a problem.

2004 Porsche Carrera 911 (996) Fast Flirty Silly Fun — She is fast, flirty and leave you in the dust dirty!!! This 2004 Porsche was the best yet, I think for performance hands down. Comfort, safety and a all around a drivers car. Tires are a little expensive, that is if you want high porformance tires which is the ONLY way to go for these cars. If you want a beautiful sports car, This is it!

Think This Will Be An Incredible Car, — Just got the car (6-11)so still exploring all the performance capabilities. Looks gorgeous! Particlarly looking forward to experiencing the 4WD and how that affects cornering. This will be a regular driver, not just a weekend car. And hope to have a lot of good weather to enjoy the top-down driving.

Makes You Feel Good — I bought this car because I have always loved the Porsche 911 I restored a 1982 911 Targa SC and sold it when my kids started college. I retired 4 years ago and bought this car to get back into the Porsche club as a hobby type thing. I still love these cars but this car does not need to be reconditioned ,and I am finding out that I loved working on the old car almost more than driving it.This car has new brakes new tires excellent paint and interior. I am selling because I think I would prefer an older car I can restore.

Fast, Flirty, Leave You In The Dust Dirty! — I Like everything about this car except there is no room in the back seat for anything but / Little butts. The zip on this car is amazing, stops on a dime, turns on a quarter. Seats wrap around you and keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

Cost of our Gouvernment .(very high taxes)

Amazing Porsche — I like my Porsche very much and would neve change it with a new one because the exterior style is much more prettier than the new one's. My car with an added 30 PS (through a chip= 350 PS now) satisfies my desires regarding acceleration and top speed. I have also changed the black col. to white with the wrapping system and it looks amazing now.

Porsche 911 — This car belonged to a friend who was driving it in the middle of winter with snow on the ground despite owning a Toyota landcruiser as he said it had better handling in the bad weather. I sat in and instantly felt comfotable all the controls were to hand as I drove it off he said 'floor it', very gingerly I did but wow what a sensation as the power fed in and suddenly I was breaking the law (in seconds) I was doing 100mph unfortunatly it was over all to quickly and I was back in my 1.4 Renault Megan. Never mind I can say I have driven an iconic car at over 100 mph.

Well Put Together And Quite Pretty. — Well...it's wide and quite nice to look at. It could do with much more power and am a bit disappointed that I didn't go for the turbo instead. Might have to change up soon. Or maybe a 1999 355GTB F1?

Awesome — nothing like the sound of the flat 6, sport exhaust was a bonus, loved the wind in my hair, the color was carmen red and her name was Raggedy Anne. She was more car than I could ever hope to handle, but she kept me on my toes. I miss her
