The left hand Key is a throw back to Le Mans start
Good review of a very desirable car but if you want credibility, research why the key is on the left. It's there for Le Mans starts ... remember, drivers ran across the track, jumped in the car and drove off without seatbelts fastened. Having the key on the left allowed the drivers to start the engine with the left hand and shift to first with the right - the cars were all angled off in the direction of the track so as soon as the engine started and the car was in gear, the hands would be brought back to steering.

Everyday supercar
The 993 does a wonderful job of doing just about everything very well. Quick enough to have fun, not so fast that you're constantly answering "yes, I know why you pulled me over". Amazing styling, often referred to as the prettiest 911 ever made. Last air-cooled motor in a 911 but with the most modern air-conditioning and climate controls. Anti-lock brakes, but very limited other driver controls. Fuel consumption is around 15 city/22 highway but some of that is likely tied to driver behavior.

Great car but not bullet proof.
What driving used to be like. Experience the less refined driving experience with modern conveniences. Expect to pay much money for the simplest service like oil change. If you want to play you have to pay.
