At The Cars Debut, The 996 Featured The Most Significant Change From The Classic 911 Series, This Was The Controversial Water Cooled Engine, Which Replaced The Previously Air Cooled Unit. The 996 Turbo Was Introduced At The Frankfurt Motor Show In September 1999, With Production To Start In 2000 And Since A True Legend Was Born. The Then New 996 Turbo Offered Genuine Supercar Performance In A Compact, But Surprisingly Practical Package And Unlike The Early Infamous Turbo 911`s, The 996 Version Became A Different Sort Of Animal, With Four Wheel Drive, A Smooth New Body Shell And A Radical Updated Cabin. Powerful Sophistication Was Porsche`s Main Goal. The 996 Turbo, Like All The Other 911 Turbo Cars Of The Past, Have Instantly Fallen Into The Collectable Classic Porsche Title. With A New Breed Of Enthusiast Owners Wanting To Own Their Very Own Piece Of Stuttgart Motoring History And With The Dramatic Climb Of The 993 Turbo Values, Who Can Blame Them On Jumping Aboard That Happy Band Wagon. The Power Offered From The Trouble Free Mezger Engine Is Astonishing And Even With The Age Of This Model, It Can Still Delight And Exhilarate. With Many Collectors Wanting This As Part Of Their Investment, But Numbers For Excellent Manuals Are Few And Far Between.
