Total 911

‘Just’ a 996?

-

Dear Sir,

Just sat on my lunch at work reading your magazine’s ‘Living the Legend’ section, and your column about your 996. When you say “it’s just a 996”, what’s wrong with the 996? It’s a brilliant car which many magazines are now starting to say.

The ugly duckling is turning into a swan. There’s so much love for the 996 now that surely no Porsche owner should say “it’s just a 996”?

Be proud of what you own. We pay out god knows how much to buy these cars and look after them. Moreover, it’s the feeling they give you, the smile on your face when you drive them. That’s one thing money cannot buy.

You’re right Stewart, it’s not 'just' a 996, it’s a fabled 911. Perhaps I shouldn't be so selfdeprec­ating in regards to my 996 in 2022.
