Porsche finally puts a standard CD player in the 2003 Porsche 911. Five horsepower are mysteriously lost in non-Turbo 911s, meaning output is "only" 315 horses now.

Pros:
  • Sizzling performance, tenacious handling, legendary reputation.
Cons:

    These are great cars that are fun to drive. Ive had a number of what I thought were sports cars, but didnt realize what a sports car was until I bought the 911. Its about performance. They dont compromise to achieve more comfort, amenities or affordability. You simply wont believe what Porsche can do with a six cylinder engine. In short, its fabulous.

    I bought a blue 03 C4S in Jan 08 with a 6-sp man & 64,000 miles on the odometer. Factory MSRP was over $82K (with destination), but I got it for 40. I had concerns cuz of the mileage, but it looked great, everything worked, the leather smelled new and the car rode as solid as a brinks truck. Having used it as a daily driver for 11 months, I can report that handling is phenomenal on a dry road (even with AWD and PSM, the car will spin if pushed in the wet), acceleration is sublime and the brakes are in a class of their own. The tear of the flat-6 when the revs pass 4000 makes the driver feel like hes in a race car. The C4Ss gorgeous turbo-style body draws envious stares.

    Porsche has poor quality control in their assembly. My vehicle was delivered with an annoying rattle from the dash and rear of the vehicle which has still to be completely corrected. The car has been in the shop three times already and will return. The dealership service department has been very gracious but the initial quality of the car has taken some of the joy of ownership out of the experience.

  • Go With the Ferrari Instead - 2003 Porsche 911

    Service and reliability and Porsche NA are not worth the price of admission at any level. Save the money and go with the Infiniti G35 or bypass the lack of German workmanship and go with Italian craftsmanship.

    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!

  • 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?

  • 03 911 T - 2003 Porsche 911
    By -

    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.

  • Turbo Porsche 911 Review - 2003 Porsche 911
    By -

    Where to begin.... This car is FAST. Takes turns at high speeds without feeling G-Force. Smooth design allows fellow drives to awe in its beauty. Only one drawback, if you dont pay attention to speed limits, the police are easily readible to give a citation. No warning here, just tickets.

  • prefer older turbos - 2003 Porsche 911
    By -

    Just bought new 911 turbo. While i luv the performance and serious quickness, I prefer the rough real sports car feel of my 1989 turbo. I just sold it and seriously regret it. Also feel the older turbos are better looking. The new turbo is extremely, breathtakingly fast, albeit: a little too cushy for this girls taste. All in all, a fabulous ride, though!!! No major complaints.
