    Turbo Cabriolet Production Numbers

    How many 996 Turbo Cabriolet's have been produced? When will production stop? Has the production been limited enough to make the car rare enough to hold value especially long or make it a collector's car?

    I wouldn't honestly know... I must say, they are very rare in Holland. I have been to the importer in Holland a couple of times since its' release, and they never had one! I saw a C4S cabriolet last week near where I live, and it was the first one I saw that wasn't on a special occasion. It was atlas grey, and equipped with a hardtop... I fell in love instantly! And that is a big thing for someone who doesn't like 911 cabs generally!

    Re: Turbo Cabriolet Production Numbers

    Here are some numbers from a few months ago:

    The Turbo cab's production is over. Only Turbo S cab's are being produced. The Turbo cab is a great car but because of the 996 Turbo S model and the near term future production of the 997/ 997 Turbo I wouldn't think of it as a car that will hold more than average value. As far as a "collector's car". I wouldn't put it in that category either but who knows. Just trying to be straight with you in case you heard otherwise.

    and given that they are more 'fashion' than 'hardcore enthusiast' cars (unlike a gt3 eg), i guess they will suffer strong depreciation as soon as a 997 tt cabrio comes out.
