Porsche 911 buying guide

The Porsche 911 has been in production since 1964 and has kept the same basic layout throughout: a flat-six engine mounted behind the rear axle, two seats up front and two small ones behind. The range runs from the everyday Carrera and Targa to the four-wheel-drive Turbo and the track-focused GT3 and GT3 RS. Buyers choose it because it works as a daily car, is well built and has a large network of independent specialists.
