Porsche 996 Carrera

With the new Porsche 911 of the 996 series, four-valve technology with two overhead camshafts was used for the first time. And the water cooling was understandable from a technical point of view, since the range of services could be further expanded with this technology. In addition, without the new water cooling and the four-valve technology, the exhaust gas and noise regulations of the time would not have been complied with. With the new 911, you could choose between rear-wheel or all-wheel drive, coupé, targa or cabriolet. Over 175,000 units of the 996 rolled off the assembly line between 1997 and 2006, making the 996 series the most-built 911 series to date.
