Pros: Performance, Handling, Brakes, Reliability, Mystique, Fit and Finish, Price
Cons: Insurance Costs, Vandalism, Price
The Bottom Line: If you want one of the best cars ever built and can spend the money, you can not go wrong. They hold their value and carry the Porsche Mystique.
I decided to do a review on the least expensive version of the Porsche Carrera Coupe ( 2001 Model ) after a weekend trip from San Antonio to Dallas and back. I have driven many other models in the past and they keep getting just a little...

Cons: zippy zippidy yack
The Bottom Line: ahh, that moaning sound of the porshe
In the road of life, there are cars that take you from A to B and than there are cars that make life worth living. I personally don't even consider the Boxter as a real Porsche, so I am going to let you decide which category the 911 belongs to. Porsche ...

Pros: Great handling, smooth engine, fully automated convertible top operation, refined yet sporty interior, Porsche feel
Cons: marginal sound system, plastic rear window
The Bottom Line: Best all-around sports car money can buy! Great power, good handling, reliable, but still a stylish and refined convertible. There is no substitute!
The 2000 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet is my 2nd P-car and has quickly become my favorite of all the cars I've owned. I've also owned a Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo (modified to over 400HP) and 1996 Porsche 911 Twin Turbo so it's a compliment that is ...

Pros: True driver's car, great resale value, styling second to none, very reliable engine, "There is no substitute."
Cons: Expensive, high insurance, prone to vandalism and theft
Well, if you're of the epinion that the former is true, then please, by all means send me the title to your under-appreciated asset - I'll take care of any misgivings you may have about (TRULY) the most significant car of this century. While pangs of...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Driving dynamics unsurpassed, Pose Value, Structural Integrity, Cost of Running Very Low
Cons: Rattles and Squeaks, cheap material used in interior, brake and tire wear
The Bottom Line: Buy one, enjoy life, follow the maintenance schedule and keep it for 10 years. Bulletproof mechanicals, unsurpassed resale value.
This is my third P-Car, a 2000 C-2 Convertible with the standard options except for the Sports Suspension Package. The car is black on black on black, I got a very good deal on it and prior to the purchase took it to the local dealer (Beverly Hills ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Handling, acceleration, style, instrument cluster, tail raises at 75mph.
Cons: "premium" sound system. Gas mileage. Xenon headlights should be stock. Lack of seat controls.
The Bottom Line: This car earns its reputation as a premier sports car. If you don't need to cart your family around, this is the car to buy. Superior driving experience.
This car is amazing. I bought this base model Carrera used with 12,000 miles on it. It has the 6 speed manual gearing, the leather interior, and 18" sport classic II rims. This car turns on a dime and has amazingly quick and smooth acceleration. The ...

Pros: Great pick-up, excellent handling on wet days
Cons: $$$, complicated hard top assembly
I 'owned' this car for a about a week. It was a triple black (black leather, black top and black color) Carrera 4 (4 wheel drive) convertible.
I drove it both on bay area parking lots (I mean freeways!) as well as city streets. This is one of...

Pros: Speed, Style, Heritage
Cons: Price
While some may argue that the new 911 isn't a 911 at all due to the water cooling, I disagree. This fine automobile is the best that Porsche has produced yet.
Personally, my favorite thing about this car is the interior. The old 911 was in...

The 911 Carrera is totally redesigned from earlier years. The all new 911 Carrera still has its rear engine rear wheel drive layout, but the new engine requires water cooling to keep the temperature down. The new engine is more powerful and fuel...

Pros: It had a take charge feeling on the road
Cons: The price is high and there is noise from the door windows
The Porsche 911 is a car that only a few people in the world really understand. Even fewer know that the car is truly able to do. It is a dream that you have when you are young to drive a sleek fast moving machine like the Porsche.
I have...

Pros: The drivability, the feel, the prestige
Cons: The high cost of repairs and the high cost of worry that someone will damage it
I wish I had my Porsche back. You can drive a car or you can drive a Porsche, I'd rather drive a Porsche. No other car feels like a Porsche, drives like a Porsche, or has quite the prestige of a Porsche.
Why do I not drive a Porsche if I...

This is the latest and in my opinion, the best porsche there is on the market. The Carrea 4 has four wheel drive, and 300 horsepower. The car accelerates to 60 in about 7 seconds, which is really fast. The car can fit 4 people but the two back bucket...
