What It's Like To Own A 997.1 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S!

Collin (911 Owner): @collinscamera

The Porsche 911 is one of the most iconic and legendary sports cars in the history of the automobile. Despite the engine being technically in the wrong place, German engineering has refined this sports car into one of the best driving and performing vehicles in the world. This 997.1 Carrera 4S was purchased for around $45k, and at just over a decade old, it still has all of that Porsche brilliance. Check out this ownership interview with Collin about his Porsche 911, and make sure to watch my full review of this car!

Positive points on the 997.1 - off the lights its great flat 6 engine great to listen to especially at 30 mph, great car to look at Negative ; the ride is firm and you feel every bump, in the UK everyone wants to race you. Overall its a great car though

Proud to say I haven’t watched a VV video since Nissan left.

That opening shot With the wing was to smooth

Just bought a 997.1 carrera and love it. It rocks the house and it is showroom condition. all service records, paint corrected, new mufflers, new tires. Rock star.

This is what I'm aiming for a 997 c4s I've never driven 1 or any Porsche but I've been a fan since childhood of the look and I will buy 1 on looks alone one day...

Fellow e28 535i and 911 guy - respect - the two greatest cars Ive ever owned!!

[pduffyusa]

I like when you do these interviews, more youtubers should.

4:03 I was looking at S classes he then laughs out loud lmfao

Sounds like you’ve done your research. I came from m46 M3. Buddy has e92 m3. The m3 is a big step down as far as driving dynamics. I wouldn’t worry too much about bore scoring. At least I try not too. Use good oil (Motul or Gibbs racing), properly warm up the car, regular oil changes, good oil filter, etc.

Absolutely LOVE this car, great video!

Consider a 2010's Lexus LS as an alternative to your S-class work car. I am looking for a 997.1 or 996.2.

I like the older style feel, try driving with no power steering, no abs, esp, traction control etc etc, was just u your wit your gear changes and tyres holding u on the road, trying driving when u drive the shit out of your car the way it came out of the factory, the youth of today lol, they have all the gear and no idea 😂😂😂👍🏻👍🏻

[philliesphan]

What about the car's handling compared to an E92 M3?

[mbm]

I have a problem. Why people that feel nervous still drive such powerful cars. With all respect but this car deserve only experience drivers, chill and fast. Not furious and disturbed. In the end it comes to damage....<>

[Millsprinkles]

Sounds like a 911 apologist to me. I purchased my 911 turbo because I love everything about it. I might add, when was the last time Ferrari won a race in the last 50 years? Cause Porsche has won a lot. Also a Porsche 911 (911 GT2RS) currently holds the fastest lap time at the Nurburg ring by a full 4.7 seconds... that's a lot incase you don't know. Anyone who says Porsche's aren't supercars/hypercars are lying to themselves.

Don't modify your 911 man. It'll be worth more in the long run.

[christophertone]

I wish he would talk more about the experience driving the car, and stop talking about other cars. Who cares about bmw

[SteveRunciman]

I"d like to know more about the car owner in these segments.

[Matt-ftnz]

See 8:30 the complete dashboard is not working! Is the driver blind?

When is the full review of this video coming? Can't wait
