The Appeal
The 911, Porsches' most recognised marque has been providing enthusiasts with enchanting exhilaration since the 1960s. The iconic car has taken various forms over the years, all following a synonymous style that has become as revered as the 911 name.
While the different generations have displayed a similar seductive appearance, each brings its own magic to the table. Powerful performance, stunning interiors and a bewitching charm come part and parcel with 911 ownership, there’s always been and forever will be an unshakable allure associated with these rear-engined masterpieces.
Produced from 2004-2013 the 997 generations reigned supreme, featuring a flat-6 engine and a return to its attractive more traditional appearance, the car is widely regarded as one of the best water-cooled 911 marques.
