Are there any cosmetic differences between the 996 and 997 C2 aside from the obvious front end?? The rear on the 997 C2 seems a little more pronounced or wider than the 996 C2 ?

Aside from the cosmetice changes, many 997 drivers believe that its suspension is more tuned for the track while the 996 has a commuter bias. Since my time behind the wheel of a 997 was limited to a 15 minute test drive, I certainly didn't detect any significant changes between the two cars. In terms of performance, it seems as though the 997 is a tad faster according to the car magazines. The 997S has posted some very impressive numbers in a variety of performance tests.

The only thing that remained the same is the roof.
