996 Carrera 4S

October 30, 2023

There’s something about the 996 carrera 4S which has left it the forerunner in most 996 fan’s eyes (non turbo GT or RS of course [or maybe not]) the rear end is wider but not by much really but it does allow for wider rear wheels and tyres bulking it up visually. I think the reflective rear strip has a lot to do with it as harks back to earlier 964 models with a similar statement piece across the back end. Interestingly something repeated with the more modern availability of LED technology and cars having a light bar across the back suck as the Taycan and 992. Ebbing closer to the whole light cycle from Tron look. You can’t deny the 996 c4s photographs very well, in any colour too but particularly a classic arctic silver car such as this low mileage looker which was for sale with Pie Performance in Suffolk.
