All Cabriolets came with a well-equipped platform that was based on the 3.4-liter, 296-hp flat-six cylinder engine. From air conditioning to inertia-activated roll-hoops and air-tight power convertible top, the Carrera C2 Cabriolet is a very usable sports car.

The Porsche 911 was into it second year with a water-cooled engine by 1999 with its restyled aero looks. Although these two radical changes were initially met with some skepticism by the 911 faithful, time has proven that Porsche made the right decisions on both counts. To this day, the engineering and styling of their premier sportscar remains a benchmark for others to aim for.
