For those who must ask about practicality, the car does have a front trunk big enough for a couple of soft bags. Expect to carry no more than two people, as the rear seats are only for emergency use—or for additional luggage. As for sealing away rain, heat and dust, the folding top does an excellent job of that, and no leaks or mechanical problems have sprung up. The 993 does pack all the necessary safety equipment, like ABS brakes and dual airbags. Other concessions to convenience include power windows, door locks and mirrors, and power-operated leather seats. This is obviously not a car for the timid. Its controls, behavior and capabilities require one’s full attention. For some, it might be too uncompromising, and there lies the true beauty of this car. Indeed, this car has successors, but no true replacement. The spirit of the company lives on in other models, but the 993 is a true Porsche in both body and soul. It’s the unadulterated incarnation of the Porsche philosophy and that alone may never be recreated. |
