    Which Porsche Carrera would you rather have? 995 S, 996 S, or 997 S? For me...993 S

    Yes, but they only had the Turbo body and no mechanical improvements over a standard Carrera. The 996 was only available with 4WD though.

    The 997 offcourse It has the best technology and IMHO doesnt do bad on looks either. The evolution of Porsche has reached it temporary peak with the latest 911.It is faster (and better handling ?) and overall just better sorted out. Plus you get some more luxuries

    Why would you pick a Carrera that wasn't in your poll?? I'd pick the 997 S too. It looks great.

    Because he meant to say 993 in the poll. The 995 doesn't exist. And I'd prefer for me a regular 993 Carrera Coupe, the 285bhp version if possible. But if it has to be one of the poll the 993 S then.

    Of course if you have a 997 Carrera S it has to be with X51 option...

    My friend's dad has a custom (redone with accesories) 993 S with a Porsche GT3 spoiler (I think...), new clear HID Xenon headlights, new 996 metallic rims, new Porsche drilled Brembo brakes, redone interior, new speed dials and tach etc, and new suspension.
