I was thinking about getting a 2001 911 Turbo with 100,000 miles on it? Will that Turbo be substantially slower than one with say 10,000 miles on it?

996 Facelift Conversion
porsche911carrera4 replied to barchetta's topic in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)
B) Sure, i will post some photo tomorrow. Pic just took today, passenger side has been fit for new fender, drive side shows stock fenders. Hopefully will be done by next week. :D :D :D Finally Conversion has been done. Looking for a big wing to suit the car now.. any suggestion? ;) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hey I was wondering could you give me cost on the facelift, also did you do the work yourself, also if you could tell where you go the parts from and stuff, I am deciding on if I should do it, or just save up some more and get a 2002. -
Other than the headlights horse power, and other inside goodies, why does the 99 Carrera look better from the profile view versus a 2002? I really love my 99 C4 but I hate the front headlights, (Boxster, VW) and I dont want to buy a C4S or spend 10 grand trying to change the front. Is it just me or are the 2002, higher, and longer? The dealership hates me cause I never buy from them!

Wait wait, so what exactly does PSM do on a C2 in terms of power distribution? What does a C4 do in terms of power distribution? Front and Rear Wheels in let say no traction conditions.

Thanks for the response. I am leaning towards a 2002 C2. I can sell my C4 for pretty good money and get a newer looking C2 with minimal extra expense. Thanks for your insight on the Cabriolet's I was leaning towards them but the curves just are not as nice as a Coupe, plus the prices are outrageous. C4S is really nice but I have yet to see a used one drop below $75,000. Also I think the widebody again takes away from the curves of the C2 which looks lower, and sleeker, however I love the C4S frontbumper which looks awesome. I was speaking with a guy and he told me with PSM the C2 is basically the C4, because the PSM will move the front tires the same way a C4 does. I think thats what you were saying but I was just wanting to clarify it. Does that mean if lets say were in 5 inches of snow with PSM on both cars will move the same way? Thanks Thanks!

I own a Carrera 4 99 model and was wondering what other peoples opinions are on this. I have never driven a C2 and was wondering what people have thought about the differences. I want to upgrade to a 2002 with the newer headlights and more horses but I do not know if I can stomach the C4S price tag. Just wondering what people thought about regular C4 versus C2 because I know the wide body of the C4S is virtually a totally different car? Other things also to note, does the 4wd make me look as though I am not a real drivers driver? I know the GT3 is the supreme Porsche, none of the PSM or anything else just wanted to know peoples views on this. One last thing can a C2 do slides easier than a C2, also I think the 2002 C2 Cabriolet is the only 4WD none Widebody with the newer headlights is that right? I wish they made a C4 with the newer headlights! Another quick question, is the extra money worth 4WD, I just really love driving fast in the rain, but I would never take my baby in the snow unless it was fresh with no sand or salt! Thanks these forums are addictive!!

That car looks awesome. You would not be able to give me a rough quote on how much it would cost would you. I hate how my car gets mistaken for a Boxster.

Is it possible to change a 996 1999 carrera with the boxster looking headlights to the 2002 nicer looking headlights? Thanks
