Porsche 996 Carrera 4 06/99 and Tiptronic

what do you mean in your post's tile 06/99??

anyways, what color combo are you seeking? coupe or cab? twisty wheels?

If I understand your posting, you are looking at a 996 Carrera 4, manufactured in June, 1999.

Should that be the case, then this is one of the early 996 cars and is an early version of the Tiptronic transmission. There have not been a lot of problems with that transmission; however, both the hardware and the software have been improved in the newer cars.

Drive the car, if the performance with the Tiptronic is up to your expectations, then it's OK; however, I would also suggest that you drive a similar car with the 6 speed manual...if you can drive a manual transmission with clutch. Compare the performance and buy what works for you.

Also...before any preowned or used Porsche purchase, have an experienced technician/mechanic inspect the car and make sure that everything is working properly. Replacement parts and labor can be very expensive.

Good luck and regards from Texas

Excellent advise. But, you have me curious. How did you know it was manufactured in June, 1999?

That's right

I did it today and I liked Tiptonic very much also if is not the same as manual, but I love automatic

Really I could'nt because the car is far from my city but it has just passed an official Porsche control so I suppose all should ok.

Thanks. Ciao from Italy
