Asked to nominate his favourite Porsche 911 during its 50th Anniversary celebrations in 2013, racing driver and journalist Tiff Needell chose the 996 commentando: "This was the model that brought the 911 into the modern world. We finally got rid of the VW pedals and had a chassis that handled in a much more progressive and controllable manner. Non era un convertito prima, ma lo divenne completamente dopo!" Traditionalists may have decried the 996's water-cooling and Boxster componentry, however, the use of a brand-new platform (the first since 1963) meant that it was notably lighter, stiffer, and more aerodynamic than its 993 predecessor. The 3. 4-litre engine developed 296bhp and 258lbft (outputs comparable to those of the 993 Carrera RS's 3. 8-litre unit). Allied to either a six-speed manual or five-speed Tiptronic transmission, the free-revving flat-six enabled a sprint to 60mph in 5 seconds and 174mph top speed.
