1998 Click to see full answer. Likewise, what year did Porsche stop making air cooled engines?It is common knowledge that the 993 was the last of the air-cooled Porsches. It was a huge milestone. Fifty years (1948 to 1998) of air-cooled technology and then Porsche’s air-cooled engines were abruptly gone.Beside above, what year Porsche 911 is the best? “In my opinion, the 1989 911 is probably the best car to purchase. It has the G50 transmission and was the last of the series. 1978 through 1989 were the best of the 911 series cars. Unfortunately, the ’78 car is 31 years old, and in that time someone has worked on the car who had no idea of what they were doing.” Secondly, why did Porsche stop making air cooled engines? The 986 (Boxster) and 996 (first water-cooled 911) cemented the shift to water-cooling for Porsche’s production sports cars and the rest, as they say, is history. So stricter regulations and the inability to generate more performance ended the days of the air-cooled 911.Why is air cooled Porsche better?Air-cooled engines make for a more lightweight car. It feels more like a true sports car with most of the engine weight over the driving wheels while retaining the rear-wheel drive. There’s beauty in the simplicity of the design in an air-cooled engine. An air-cooled engine is less costly to maintain.
