Initiated by the 993 generation, the all-out development of the 911 range has enabled the most legendary of Porsches to meet the expectations of an ever-widening clientele, and has blossomed even further with the 996, of which the Carrera 4S is one of today's most sought-after avatars. Completely new and the first generation to be equipped with a liquid-cooled flat-six engine, the 996 presented in 1997 gradually built up its legitimacy in the eyes of the most demanding Porsche enthusiasts, and the "4S" played a not inconsiderable role in this context. The combination of headlamps and wide-wing bodywork taken over from the Turbo (while retaining the self-deploying spoiler of other Carrera models), specific front bumper and all-wheel drive, combined with the 3.6-liter, 320 hp engine introduced for the 2002 model year, resulted in a particularly seductive proposition!
