This Year's Model Updates:

For the 2000 Porsche 911, a new exhaust system bumps horsepower from 296 to 300. Already featured on Carrera 4 models, two-wheel-drive Carreras now get an electronic drive-by-wire throttle and optional PSM stability control. All models receive an upgraded interior console and materials. The formerly optional charcoal odor filter is now standard. There are two new standard and one new optional exterior colors.

Pros:
  • Finely honed sports car abilities, available in all-wheel-drive and convertible forms, legendary prestige.
Cons:
  • Looks too much like a Porsche Boxster, not as visceral as the previous model.

  • Not just a toy - 2000 Porsche 911
    By -

    I had never owned a high end sports performance car. This was definitely a step up from the Japanese ones I previously owned and the newer ones on the current market. Initially, looked at buying a Maserati Spyder with F1. Oddly another customer at the Ferrari dealership recommended trying Porsche and I have not looked back. I thought this would be a car that sat in the garage to maintain its value with low mileage. I cant stop driving it though, taking it to work everyday, routine shopping, long-distance trips, and sometimes just for fun. It has been a pleasure to drive. The kids want to ride in it all the time as well.

    Everything I expected in a street legal race car. If you want a luxury sport touring car, or muscle car buy one, but not a Porsche.

  • A Mans Dream Car - 2000 Porsche 911

    I went from a boxster to my conv. carrera. What a huge difference in power, speed and handling. I love getting the looks from other drivers when I pass them and that engine roar makes people turn and admire this powerful looking car. Like some of you out there, I take it out for a spin and return back home with a smile.

  • Unbelievable - 2000 Porsche 911

  • No substitute! - 2000 Porsche 911
    By -

    Have owned car about a year, purchased used with 50k on it. Had original window sticker and records. Always wanted a 911 since I was a kid 30 years ago, but fearful of cost of owning a performance German car, but wish I had done it years ago. Awesome driving car, a solid rock. Bullet like acceleration, brakes that stop on a dime and give 9 cents change, on rails handling, visceral exhaust noise. Classic style that will never be mistaken for some pseudo Asian competition. This car is addictive to drive. I find myself always taking the long route home.

    Outstanding car! Runs like a dream. Extremely well engineered. Superb handling.

  • Best Porsche I ever owned - 2000 Porsche 911
    By -

    Fast and responsive -This Carrera is the best Porsche I have ever owned, it is quick, agile and and feels completely safe on any surface. Gone is the extreme over-steer and the front end lift under acceleration, and at 0-60 in 5 seconds, the 996 is nothing to sneer at. I bought this Porsche in 2012 with 53,000 miles, it looks new, it feels new and it is very well maintained and a pleasure to polish. Much maligned by the snobs who call themselves "purists" and the IMS and RMS fear mongers, this car has proven them wrong. Not a drop of oil on the floor, no additional oil between changes and including the recent 60 K inspection service it costs only $50.00 per month in maintenance.

  • 2000 911 Cabrio - 2000 Porsche 911

    Ive owned this car since new and used it as a weekend toy, and what a toy it is. On the 1 or 2 occasions where I thought about selling it, Ive only had to go and drive it for a few miles and Ive come back with a smile on my face. Its hard to believe that it could be improved on. The only problems Ive had have been with the top was not working correctly when I first got the car. The performance, handling styling and overall experience of ownership have been above my expectations. I would absolutely buy another Carrera.

  • More Power Please - 2000 Porsche 911
    By -

    The input from the steering wheel always impresses me. The car is terrific to drive, light on its feet, and a pleasure to drive. It needs more power though. I was looking at a GT-3 or a turbo but then found TPC on the East Coast. They are shipping me a supercharger and I will have around 440 hp. Problem solved!!

  • Its a blast! - 2000 Porsche 911
    By -

    This car performs beautifully. Precise handling, excellent acceleration and great, classic styling contribute to a great experience in the vehicle. 27 mpg at 65 mph is a bonus. It ended up my best mileage vehicle.
