2006-04-02 The ultimate air-cooled Porsche guide!

Wow, what an excellent buy! The book is an amazing sum of information about one of the best Carreras ever coming out of Stuttgart: the 993!

In this volume you'll find almost anything you need to buy, service, and learn about one of the most successful incarnations of the glorious 911. Everything is covered with many photos from the author and other Porsche fans who have loved and cared for this amazing car.

The only reason I give 4 out of 5 in the final verdict is because I feel it could be more complete if some of the photos were in color. I also think that some more full technical diagrams (from Porsche AG) could be present. Small things that could get corrected in a 2nd edition.

But don't get me wrong, this book is the best you can find out there about the King of Porsche! Tons of information about every aspect of the car imaginable. Certainly a good buy.
