If owning the world’s best all-around sports car has always been one of your life goals, a 2008 Porsche 911 Carrera of any stripe could well be the vehicle for which you’ve been longing. Steeped in tradition, this thoroughly modern version of Porsche’s seminal offering delivers a spectacularly well-sorted combination of power, handling and braking, while remaining very livable as an everyday driver.
Cabin space is modest in all 2008 Porsche 911 Carrera models, a fact that may well put off taller drivers. Minimalist rear seating, limited cargo capacity and the purposefully firmish nature of the suspension tuning, particularly in "S" versions, also could be potential deal breakers.
