Model history

The Porsche 996 from 1998 marks a significant milestone in the history of Porsche. As part of the first generation of the 996, it replaced the air-cooled 911 models of the 993 series. Equipped with a 3.4-liter six-cylinder boxer engine, it produced 296 hp. Interestingly, the 996 was the first Porsche 911 with a water-cooled engine and a self-supporting aluminum body. Although it was controversial due to these innovations and many Porsche enthusiasts criticized the loss of air-cooled character, the Porsche 996 proved to be a commercial success, selling over 170,000 units to become the most successful Porsche 911 of all time.
