Default US-GT3 trunk vs. C2 trunk

The front trunk in the GT3 looks like the one in the C4S, Turbo, C4 Cabrio.

The front trunk in the C2 looks like the one in the Boxster, C2 Cabrio, 40th Ann.

The US-GT3 has the smaller gas tank, and it doesn't have AWD. Is there a reason for not having the C2 front trunk which is bigger.

I think the GT3 has a lot of unused space behind the trunk inside covers.

Yes, b/c the GT3 is built using the stiffer C4 chassis.

Is the front trunk in the 2010 GT3 the same size and dimensions as a C4S? This thread dates back to 2004. I need to figure out how much I can pack in the trunk of a 2010 for an extended trip. Thanks.

3 months before I got my first GT3. Nice.

Rocci, there is plenty of space where the rear seats used to be in the C4S.

Not sure but it is always nice to take a stroll down memory lane and remember the days of old before our wallets make a horrible sucking sound
