The Appeal
The Porsche 996 represented a significant evolution in the 911 lineage, being the first to feature a water-cooled engine and a completely redesigned body. It was a whole new remit for the Stuttgart marque, perhaps one of the most revolutionary in its lineage, and while it may have raised the eyebrows of the purists, it quickly proved itself.
This particular example stands out with its distinctive Forest Green exterior paired with gold wheel trims and Savannah interior, a combination that sets it apart from the more common silver livery that's become synonymous with the 996. This is a distinctive car that's well worthy of attention.
