Discussion
There are several other 911 turbo categories as well e.g. this one with much higher numbers

Howmanyleft is very unreliable for 996T numbers
In what respect?The number of first registrations, for example, is not correct:

Is there a better stab at UK registered numbers?https://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/vehicle/porsche_911_...

Some of these could be unofficially imported but the bulk will be official Porsche i.e. C16 cars
Sound about right?

Because you have look at quite a few model numbers and then make some correlation against the year of registration and also the description in the V5 is not always entirely accurate in terms of coupe v cabrio - most time it is close but..For example
I have a 911 Turbo S cabrio
There is no breakdown on HML into coupe or cabrio
There might have been the odd car released in 2004, but nearly all were 2005 cars
If you search HML - you see that there 30 cars registered by end of 2003, 67 by end of 2004 and 212 by end of 2005.
You can see that (212-67) are all 996 Turbo S cars = 145 - no idea on breakdown though, plus the 42 claimed in 2004 - about 187
I've always assumed that there are around 180-200 Turbo S cars - with only around 25-30% being cabrios - so let's say around 120 coupe and 60 cabrios

1) Demand for the Coupe is always going to be stronger than the Cabriolet
2) There are far fewer manual cars than tips
3) Turbo S will always add a premium, but it's really just a run out model with X50 package and ceramics
4) Then pick a solid colour scheme
They're great cars and still and amazing value v performance.

Dunno. Sounds fewer than I thought, but others may know better.Some of these could be unofficially imported but the bulk will be official Porsche i.e. C16 cars

I can tell you that the total worldwide is 20499 and that is official Porsche number. So one of the most common 911 turbos. They were relatively cheap (some still are and probably for good reason) and very easy to tune/modify. So original well maintained examples are rare. The 2005 Turbo S is a rare beast with something like just over 100 UK cars and a low-miles manual coupe should hold it's value providing you keep it original. IMHO of course!

Those numbers are cumulative! So don't add up previous years. You are better off looking at new registrations tab.
The first registration numbers are not completely accurate as I understand they also include imports from independents and individuals. But should give a good idea as most will be official Porsche cars.
Shame that Porsche won't give out the official figures anymore. This info is now company confidential!
Hexanchus said:
It didn't make sense to me at first :-)
Glad it's not just me then!The figure is way below what I thought when I was buying. It kind of chimes with what I'd observed; that since I got my car, there were possibly only two others I;d seen which had all the exterior, interior and trim requirements I'd staked as 'essential'.
One thing is a little odd about my car is that it is a 2000 car, with a 2001 chassis letter in the VIN, but it does not have a glovebox. I'd assumed that was only 2000 build cars?

Quote PH:
By the time production ended, 22,062 996 Turbo models of every type had been built. The numbers break down as:
996 Turbo coupe: 16,965
996 Turbo Cabriolet: 3534
996 Turbo S coupe: 600
996 Turbo S Cabriolet: 963
The 996 Turbo S Cabriolet doesn't look right being higher than the coupe!

Don't know the PH source but 20499 comes from Porsche Museum book 'Turbo Stories' which covers 911 turbo from 930 to 997Quote PH:

22,062 is the global production figure that's the aggregate of the numbers EvoSlayer quotes earlier in the (resurrected) thread on 24th June 2010.
One total is from Adrian Streather's book the other from Porsche museum. Take your pick!Gassing Station | Porsche General | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
