996 or 997? The Porsche 911 is a motoring icon, and a dream model for many car enthusiasts. But if you're thinking of buying your first 911, should you choose car from the 996 generation, or an early 997? With a budget of £20,000 to £35,000 to spend on your first Porsche 911, chances are you'll be looking at either a 996-generation model, or an early 997. But what are the differences between these two cars, and how do they compare in terms of look and feel? In this CarGurus UK video, Chris Knapman compares a facelift 996 Carrera with a 997.1 Carrera to find out just how different - or similar - these cars really are. Both use a 3.6-litre flat-six with 325 horsepower, and both have the same two-plus-two seating configuration, yet there are clear differences that might make you choose one of the these modern classics over the other. Which would be your pick? Thank you to Paragon Porsche for the loan of their immaculate 997 Carrera for this video. https://www.paragongb.com/ CarGurus can help you find great deals on used cars from top-rated dealers in your area.
