This is not a probability of success.

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.

For those of you that own them, do people ask you this question? Do you find it annoying? Have you considered changing the badge? I personally will not change the badge but...
So I guess a plain old "Carerra" has no engine?
Since C4 = 4 cylinder
C2 = 2 cylinder
C = nada
Glad my PO put the 40th anniversary badge with just a simple "911" on my car. That means it has 911 horsepower!
I figure you got a few options here for the non-knowing: Tell them it means either, 1. it has a 400ci engine or 2. it has 4 turbo's. 3. You also own a Carrera 1, 2, 3 and this car is #4..
LOL
Talk about confusion, try Carrera4S. Yeah I tell them that the GT2 only has 2 cyclinders and the GT3 is a little better because it has 3 cyclinders. My car is so much better because it has 4 cylinders and an S to boot. So then they ask "then the Carrera GT only has one cylinder? I say yes, but it's a 2 stroke motor.
Funniest thing I've experienced was a couple of guys that were from the sticks that thought Carrerra was "Cammerra"..
The son looks at his Dad and says "Daddy, I ain't never seen a Cammerra (Camaro) look like that before, have you?"
They also have a guard Rooster at their shop and never lock it... The joys of living in the country...
Be nice to them. Some guys on here might have some stuff to sell those question askers at a later date.
In the words of another just say, I'll get back to you with an answer to that on a later date
Nice avatar man hehehe
I hear this all the time at the dealership (not particularly Porsches but in general) :
"Does that have a V-6 or V-4 in it?" or "No, mine's not a V-6...it's a V-4"
