    I love the car, but I felt the stock suspension was too soft and the exhaust too quiet, I love performance so I modified both and the result is fantastic. It now handles and sounds like it should of from the factory. I would like more power also. but i had a Zo6 Corvette prior to it.

    A great all around driver. Step on the gas even at 5th or 6th gear and just go, go. I cant think of a better choice yet! Handling of course is excellent, Fit and finish are outstanding. Interior is well laid out. Navi is a real plus. A blast to drive and a real head turner.

    Big difference with this and the 2002 is the motor. They added 20+ horsepower, more low end to the car. This car is very easy to drive, perhaps to easy. I have driven a boxster and this car is even easier to drive. Brakes are excellent and overall the build quality is excellent. I suggest you skip a lot of the extra add ons and opt for the 18 inch wheels and tires. Get it with the 6 speed.....dont be a whimp!

  • 2003 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet Tip - 2003 Porsche 911
    By -

    This is the best car I have ever owned, I just bought it a few months ago and I have been in heaven with it since then. Mine is Black with A Black Top and Black interior, which is probly the best color on the car. Everything works great, I havent had many problems, though the people at my dealership arent the brightest and sometimes screw things up. But besides that, when I have it out on the road its great. Im in Pennsylvania so we have alot of back roads I can just fly through with it. I rated Comfort as a 9, because when your going on a bumpy road, you can feel every bump right up your butt. But I love my car and wont get rid of it till next year!

    This is the definition of perfection. The car is blazing fast, and quickly puts an end to other cars trying to keep up with you in turns. A REAL dream to drive, and always makes you turn around and look at it when you park it. Porsche, there IS no substitute.

  • Performance to die for, quality to wish - 2003 Porsche 911
    By -

    With the x-50 horsepower package this car @ 450 hp has all the performance and high end torque youd ever need unless youre an F-1 driver. The car has immense practical driveability as an everyday car. Rattles - a service department that has a hard time listening and a car that died with a mechanical failure at 4,000 miles leaves a little bit of a bad taste though-maybe a Ferrari next time?

  • BEST CAR ON THE ROAD - 2003 Porsche 911
    By -

    Just couple weeks ago I had the pleasure of driving my friends 911 Turbo X50 for couple days. Well, now I know what a real car is!!! I swear its more than what you can ever imagine... incredibly fast, your eyes start watering when you start accelerating, it reminds me of the acceleration and fun of a 1000cc sport bike.. Fit and finish is unbelievable, with the stereo system being up there with the best of them! Grabs attention like no other car, I had a guy pull next to me at a stop light in a new S500 and ask me: "How does it feel to drive the baddest car in the world?" I have no words to express the experience.

  • No Better Choice - 2003 Porsche 911
    By -

    Cabriolet 2003, no better choice yet! Performance is excellent, you will need no more, and if it had it, you would not be able to use it...this car goes fast! and it accelerates quick. Fit and finish are outstanding, no rattles or flaws. Full leather is just that, awesome full stitched leather. Drop top at up to 25 MPH an improvement over previous years. I installed a short throw shifter(6 sp) and the gear shifting is precise and very short. This is a much better car and a lot more fun to drive than any other sports automobile I have had in the past including a Ferrari 328 and a TR.

    Great car on the track, the street, and the snow (must use winter treads). I use the 17 inch winter rims from my previous 99 C4 Cab in the winter, and make it up any hill thanks to AWD and PSM traction control. The Natural brown leather looks great if you dont like the Porsche cinnamon and mustard looking leather. The radio is still not great even though its a bose, and has caused a few repair trips. Fewer rattles than the C4Cab. Great cornering and unreal acceleration. The C4 is really fast enough though.
