996.1 911 Carrera 2 Aero. Is the 996 a better 911 than a 993? Tim's Enthusiast Garage S5 E5

If you are a channel watcher you know I love the 996 911. I sold my 996.2 (the red car featured in prior videos) and had been looking for a new daily/ driver grade 911. This lovely 996.1 was owned by a mate and honestly, I told him it was just too nice for me as I wanted to put lots of miles on the car. At the time of this video release I have it listed on Bring a Trailer.

The 996 has really come into it's own and gives proper 911 vibes. Is it the perfect car for your garage? check out my thoughts here. As always like , subscribe and share! Let me know what you think in the comment section.
