Recalls and complaints

What the specs mean
It is powered by the 3.6L 6-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
Its combined rating is 12.4 L/100 km, which means roughly 37 litres for 300 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $217 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$4,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
What to expect from the 911
As a sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second. The EPA lists 142 litres for luggage, roughly about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent the 911 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. A test week in the 911 tells you more than any review. Drive the 911 on your commute before you commit to it.
The cost of driving it
Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $217 at our price setting. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Year and trim
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
