Buyer’s notes
About the Porsche 911 Turbo (996)
The 996 Turbo arrived in 2000 with the twin-turbocharged Mezger flat-six rather than the Carrera’s M96, all-wheel drive and the widened body. Because the Mezger has no intermediate shaft, it carries none of the Carrera’s IMS bearing worry.
What moves the price
- Gearbox: manual cars command a premium over Tiptronics.
- Body: coupés over Cabriolets.
- Mileage and history: low-mileage manual coupés with documented servicing are the strongest.
Before you buy, check
- Oil-change history: the turbocharged engine needs fresher oil than a Carrera.
- The all-wheel-drive system’s own fluid changes.
- The coolant pipes, a known issue on Mezger engines: ask whether they have been pinned or welded.

The 996 Carrera: the cheapest 911, and the engine question that decides it
A good 996 Carrera is valued at £25,000, less than the 997 that replaced it and well under half an air-cooled 993. The discount is real, and so is the reason for it. The car to buy is the one whose engine history you can read.

The 996 Turbo is punished for an engine problem it does not have
The IMS bearing ruined the 996's reputation. The Turbo does not use that engine — and it is still priced as though it does.
