It’s a sport car,you don’t need to brake on corners
Comment from : Gary Lodge

Good video but calling a BMW (M2/3/4?) a faux-sports car is a stretch bro…
Comment from : Bill Frigo

If you were lucky enough to find a 6sp add about 25 more to it's future value

Want to buy a 997 turbo with metzger worry about camshafts
Comment from : Kidn Playe

I own an E36 M3 that I purchased in 2010 for 7k I hardly drive the thing and it only has 90k miles on it and I get offers close to 20k It's the most reliable vehicle I've ever owned, I've had a B8 S4, Porsche Cayman S, Jaguar F Type and a GTI They all were a total headache and depreciated in value significantly, I'm still thinking about another Porsche but saying that BMW's depreciate like crazy is false Any M car is actually appreciating like crazy, especially the E46 and the E36 You used a 4 series as an example, that's the worst car BMW makes right now Who the Hell wants a 4 cylinder BMW??? I can't believe that thing is even in production, I also can't believe they tried to make it look like a M4 It sucks!

Well, I recently bought a 997 c2s Always wanted a 911 but wasn't keen on spending so much money on a car I managed to get one in top mechanical conditions from my best mate who had spent a lot of money on it during his ownership, for a very good price One thing for sure, I still cannot believe this is my car and I love driving that thing Mine has various upgrades, from Dansk exhaust, turbo brakes, GT3 alcantara steering wheel/brake stick and gear shifter etc And a great aftermarket digital stereo unit with GPS/TV etc To be honest, I never switch the radio on when I drive the car🤣, the noise from the engine and the exhaust is pure melody to me I was going to buy a Cayman S 987 originally, but having driven both, there is no comparison between the two The Cayman isn't a bad car at all, but the 997 c2s is in a different league, and this black beauty is a keeper! Just had the Lobsters painted in Satin Porsche Aurum Gold and it looks so good Oh my oh my Happy motoring everyone and don't drive like a spanner😉😎

Comment from : O Gohoom

Comment from : Amrit Prasad

I just supercharged mine its so well balanced and being in the south where its hot the SC was a better choice over the turbo charged options
Comment from : Ade Oredin

By far the ugliest 911

what about a 996?
Comment from : Christopher Columbus

Great video! I'm having this "headlight beam adjustment faulty" error on my 9972, is it because the leveling sensor problem you mentioned?
Comment from : Sean

Comment from : AntagonistBK

I want to buy one but im too broke if inhave to replace/rebuild the engine when (yeah i said when) the engine develops bore scoring issues 🫤
Comment from : Don Z

Awesome video dude!👍🏽🤙🏽
Comment from : jmichael11

Nice video But I won't call an M4 a faux sports car Every one doesn't buy a car for economic value
Comment from : Ndifon Ntui

perfectly right recommendation - 2 or 3 years too late Here in Germany the 997 prices have gone through the roof - if you can find a decent example

Great video! I am still excited every time I get behind the wheel of my 9971 C2S In fact - check out the POV from my recent trip to Tail of the Dragon Gives a good sense of what it’s like behind the wheel on a spirited drive POV - Tail of the Dragon - 9971 C2Sbr youtube/ml-FwO4VhCU
Comment from : TrueView

Well done! I just may look for a 997 now as my daily driver I’ve looked at so many cars, new and used, and keep coming back to the 997 Thanks
Comment from : Jonathan L

👍 Buying a 997 now is a good idea Paying inflation pricing for one in 2021 or recent May 2022? Naaaa! Stupidity Cool video and the 997 is the next classic
Comment from : FueledByPassion®

Say no more, I just hit buy it now on eBay…

Comment from : Yehor Naumov

I literally have an appointment to buy a black, and a white 12 9972 turbos tom I still like my 991 better though
Comment from : PA Motorsports

My reasons for loving the 997 are the vastly improved interior design over the 996, and for the greatly improved exterior The beautifully arranged gauges and cohesive dash and center stack finally worked as a visual unit brbrBut the best reason for the 997 is the 2010 limited production Sport Classic upgrade It set the bar for all 911s, and has never been surpassed Of course they go for over $300,000 now but they are That Beautiful From its dual-bubble roof, duck tail spoiler, Fuchs-inspired wheels and exclusive dove gray paint, racing stripes and exclusive interior appointments, the Sport Classic is as jaw-dropping today as it ever was
Comment from : Greg McKinney

Nice video! You've swayed me to look into these a bit more I live in CT though would you say that this is still a practical choice for someone who only has space to own one car and still needs to deal with winter driving/hills?
Comment from : SKiTHx SKiTHx

9971 not sure maybe 992
Comment from : Trevor Joseph

Interior is such trash This is why I didn't even know Porsche was a nice car growing up Mercedes interior was just so far ahead I do want to try the car now though Really want to try a 996 targa I have a dog, so the interior doesn't matter to me anymore
Comment from : Maxwell Benz

I had my 9972 C2S for 5 years now Still the best car for the road I have ever driven Thanks to your video I saves hundreds of dollars by doing the oil changes and spark plugs myselfbrI am due for engine coolant change @CarFanatic, will you be doing a DIY video for that?
Comment from : Ccc8657743

Nice job, I've watched several of your videos from some time I have a 2010 c4s and love it I think it's the next classic maybe Singer How did you upgrade to Apple/Google carplay

Comment from : B Vedant

What did you use to get Apple carplay? Also how does your iPhone connect to the carplay, BT or a physical cable thru the audio interface kit? I would like to get apple carplay on my 6mt 9972 S Thx
Comment from : K M

Can the seats recline to the back to allow occasional rest during long trips?
Comment from : uxxix

Great vid Which center exhaust bypass did you use?
Comment from : Lewis Toms

@Car Fanatic must be selling a 997 to make this video Buying one now is an assured massive depreciation loss within 1 to 2 years The video should be "Why You Should Sell Your Used 911 Now!"
Comment from : MKIVSupra

I need that GTS/aerocup front end
Comment from : Lance Messersmith

Love your video but… how does it compare to the C7 Corvette?? Torn between the 2 cars for my weekend vehicle
Comment from : Derek Stephens

Why you shouldn’t buy one now:brbr- ims bearingbr- inflationbr- tiptronic models are going to be worth 💩br- base model will be worth 💩
Comment from : Andrew P

you should NOT buy any car now except EV, used car prices are highest in history cos of chip shortage
Comment from : JHorvat84

For me, any day is a good ay to buy 997 Don’t care about value nor money, it’s about passion! Just kidding I can’t even buy a complete big mac set from McDonald’s
Comment from : Rezha Adrian Tanuharja

I own a 9972 carrera manual, full main dealer history, 49kM The local Porsche garage have already asked me 2 times if I want to sell and "upgrade" to a second hand 991 or a new 992 I can efford to buy a good second hand 991 but the 997 has something special, so I keep

Comment from : James Dean

My pick is my 2022 992 911 turbo sit's going up in value 🤔
Comment from : Kyle Wegner

I own a 9972 , as much as i love the car , after owning it for 3 years ive decided to sell it , its a great car for what it is , but i no longer find the joy to drive it Especially with awful roads in socal this car isnt really meant for daily driving unless you want to be bouncing all over the places due to potholes and uneven pavements in socal ,
Comment from : MidnightTuners

How’d he get 10k views on such a boring car?
Comment from : Doc A

Damn it I just spend the last few days convincing myself to stick with my GT86 until I skip a few notches up to a Lotus Emira
Comment from : BrazenRain

Bought an 06 Carrera 4 last summer High miles, don’t care Lovely car
Comment from : Nick

I love my 2011 9972S and a surprisingly good investmentif I had just been willing to spring for a GTS in 2018
Comment from : Jimf142

Good job! I’ve owned 9971 for over 11 years and it has been extremely reliable 👍
Comment from : Biomass22

Great video! I also recently bought a 997 My first Porsche Every time I drive it I keep asking myself, what took me so long!? Driving that car through the twisties is therapy in its purest form
Comment from : pegrathwol

Recently, I had a long chat with a service manager here in LA at a Porsche dealer and never heard someone so exited about his future purchase of a Ford Lighting truck I was amazed as we were surrounded with 2022 speedsters
Comment from : Dan The Man

its already too late clean low mileage 997s are already way expensive especially manuals
Comment from : Lando M

Great video! Hope I can copy your experiences in China for my coming purchase😊
Comment from : BrianZ

I bought one last year!
Comment from : Nick Twaddell

Too late Prices are already at the peak and inventory is slim
Comment from : Desmo SD

I have a 997 targa 4s which I enjoy but are you sure your S PDK can get to 60mph in only 38 I thought 0-60 times for the S PDK was around 46 Nice car
Comment from : jim graves

Love my 9972 turbo never selling Sitting at 36k miles
Comment from : JOHN A

Had a 997 1c2s for more than 4 years and recently switched to 9971 turbo Could not be happier
Comment from : Alexander Volkov

Great video!, and thank you I started my Porsche journey right after you I have learned so much from your channel If a car can be considered an investment, the 9972 has been a very good one for me Hold it for another new generation to come out, and it will officially be a classic
Comment from : Mark Flanders

Got to say I agree! A 997 is a proper sports car that will put a smile on your face every time you drive it… Great vid man
Comment from : Andy Bullen

I've had ny 9972 c2s for the past 4 years Love it and the value has increased by 50 However, my AC no longer blows cool air, have you had this problem? If so, how do you fix it and how much would it be? Thanks for the videos man!
Comment from : llcharl1e

After 2 - 993's I have now my 2nd 9972 cabriolet, love the 997 Best all-around car on the market
Comment from : Francois Elzenga

Saw a 997 turbo for about $75k
Comment from : 𝔸𝕟𝕕𝕪 𝔸𝕟𝕕𝕖𝕖𝕖𝕖

Agreed - the 9972 is the perfect 911 Now you’d be buying one at a peak, though
Comment from : Michael K
