This week we got to daily drive a 1997 Porsche 993 911 Turbo. The 993 is the last generation of the porsche 911 that was air cooled. The 993 Porsche 911 Turbo was also the first Porsche 911 Turbo to be AWD. with 400hp the 993 Porsche 911 Turbo is still fast by modern car standards but still features the more raw driving experience from a classic Porsche. The last of an era, I talk about if that era was better than the 996 and 997 models that came after.

The 993 Porsche 911 turbo was a highperformance variant of the Porsche 911 model that was produced between 1995 and 1998. It was the last aircooled 911 turbo model and is highly regarded by Porsche enthusiasts for its iconic design and performance capabilities.

The 993 turbo is powered by a 3.6liter twinturbocharged flatsix engine that produces 408 horsepower and 398 lbft of torque. It can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.2 seconds and has a top speed of 181 mph. The engine is paired with a sixspeed manual transmission or an optional fourspeed Tiptronic automatic transmission.

The exterior of the 993 turbo is distinguished by its wide body, large air intakes, and distinctive rear spoiler. The suspension has been upgraded to provide better handling and the brakes have been improved to provide more stopping power.

Inside, the 993 turbo features leather upholstery, poweradjustable seats, and a premium audio system. Other features include air conditioning, power windows, and a sunroof.

The 993 turbo is considered one of the most iconic and desirable Porsche 911 models ever produced. Its combination of power, speed, and handling make it a true driver's car, and its rarity and collectability have made it a highly soughtafter model among Porsche enthusiasts and collectors.
