I have a 1999 Carrera 4 (1st registered in July 1999). I seem to remember that model year seems to be the following year - or is for models part way through the previous year? So is mine a 2000 model year? Or is it 1999? Bill

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Porsche model years start from 1st September, so your car is definitely MY1999. You can check this by the 10th digit of the VIN: V=1997 W=1998 X=1999 Y=2000 1=2001 2=2002 etc, up to MY2010, which will be "A"
you can tell from the chassis no wpozzz99z?s611111 99 chassis year will be Xs 2000 wil be Ys either sideof the ys, xs the 99 are the 1st 2 digits of the model code from 996 the S means its a stuttgart built car the next 6 is the last digit from 996
