2005 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe

Refined muscle. Even if we went to the gym we'd never look so good.

It's back to future again. The design of the new Type 997 Carrera brings back the massive shoulders and wasp waist of the Type 993, which is the previous model 911 and the one most of us envision when you say the name Porsche. Porsche aficionados know what's up with all these numbers. For the rest of us suffice to say the new Type 997 is an exquisite automobile. If you are unfamiliar with this car and yet somehow manage to score a test drive, this car's power is uncompromising and therefore very demanding on the driver. New drivers and multi-taskers beware! MSRP: $69,300; Warranty: 4yr/50,000mi. Check prices at Edmunds.
