I understand now why it is one of the icons of motoring and seems almost as well screwed together now as it was when new.

Decent performance, good to drive, high level of trim (electric ruffled crested leather memory seats, full leather pack, sat nav, phone kit, 18" alloys, bi-zenon litronic headlights, electric tilt/slide sunroof etc) easy to drive fast or just tootle about town and not bad mpg if you dont give it too much welly, up to 29-30 mpg.

Best 911 ever (997 turbo) and i have had lots of them. I thought it was near perfect but the newest series 2 is be better still and the 991 will be better again. How does porsche keep doing it?

It's all true - the 911 c2s is all the supercar you'll ever need. It can be used every day, in virtually all weathers, kept on the street, rarely cleaned and yet every drive is special. There's just nothing else like it!

A treat to own; equally good as an everyday car or a tourer. Impossible to fault the performance and the pleasure of ownership. But expensive in all respects eg tyres, maintenance, insurance tax etc. Not intending to replace but to keep and pass on.

At 12K miles I noticed white smoke coming out of exhaust. I was given a BMW loan car because a major engine problem was diagnosed and I had a long wait for parts from Germany. There was no Porsche courtesy car available and communication was very poor. I had another problem last month – an airbag warning light that took three weeks to sort out

Great, but the dealer treats you like he is doing you a favour by servicing your car rather than the other way about.

Great car to look at and very enjoyable to drive, fuel economy 20-25mpg so good for a powerful 3.8 litre car. Very practical also, can fit all 3 kids in plus decent boot space at the front.

Generally reliable and running costs not as high as would be expected for a supercar. It's a 911 turbo and returns 25.2 mpg. Tyres are expensive but the rears last for about 12000 and the fronts about 18000. Of course if you drive like an idiot these figures will take a nose dive but for normal driving, using the performance sensibly, it's surprisingly economical.

It's an awesome vehicle, handles like a dream, has all the performance i desire despite not being as fast as some turbo charged cars i have driven. This car is a very usable, practical sports car. Had loads of room in the front and in the rear inside the roll cage for touring holidays. I dreamed of owning a gt3 for years and it has lived up to every expectation.

It's an amazing machine. Around a track it sounds gorgeous, is ridiculously quick and brakes and handles superbly. The great thing is that my wife and i can drive down to french tracks in air-conditioned comfort, with enough room for our luggage for a week and a case of wine on the way home - not quite so easy in a caterham or lotus 2 eleven! In guards red it looks pretty spectacular too.

Superb performance, only supercars which more then often cost twice as much will out perform with acceleration. It has fantastic poise, bags of grip and the handling feel you get through the steering wheel/seat etc allows you to find the limits quite easily. These are the main factors which sold the car to me and stood out within the first few minutes of my 1st test drive. On top of this you have styling which seems to have timeless looks, although the interior which is ok and well built like most of the car could be a little more unique. This is probably one of the easiest sports cars to drive and practical enough for every day driving. There is not allot you can fault with this car!

Apart from tyres, brakes and other consumables, nothing has ever gone wrong (touch wood). It has never broken down, never failed an MOT, very reliable.

Brilliant. Love performance cars, love this one- only one i've had that compares was a honda integra type-r when i was a lad ( still weep when i think about selling it!). Great to drive, reliable, relatively inexpensive to maintain compared to its peers and, despite advancing years, still looks good. Nearly bought a new one last summer- went home to think, washed my baby and thought - "why?"

I enjoy driving it and the depreciation has pretty stopped. I only drive on the weekend so don't do many miles so the fuel consumption is not a big factor.
