Hi does anyone know of any differences between the US spec 996GT3 and the Euro model - due to US regs?

Curb feelers, fuzzy dice, ghetto blaster stereo, chrome wheels, tiptronic, nav, heated seats with magic fingers massage, whitewall tires (optional), etc. I know I'm leaving stuff out...

Holger - you have taken me off my game! I want to post an intelligent reply, but now all I can think about is a GT3 with whitewalls.... The horror...

mooty says the curb feelers help him find the apex on right handers

i have curb feelers on BOTH sides. i am equally adept at left and right turns

- heavier front/rear bumpers
- different ECU maps with double oxygen sensors in US and single in ROW
- US 50 lbs heavier seats instead of the bucket seats
- Front height 10mm higher on US cars
- 16.6 gallons fuel tank in US instead of 23.7 gallons
ROW
- Bumperettes in the US cars

US cars are about 65 lbs heavier.

thanks for the reply ! - was looking to get one and ship back with me in a few years - but think value would be less in Europe based on your feedback.

cheers

I've also got the optional glovebox popcorn maker, but I only use it to warm up hot dogs between sessions at the track while Mooty straightens his curb feelers and Armor All's his tires.

Wow, a 23.7 gallon euro fuel tank? That's huge!

Get the smaller tank on RHD too

They also come with red jeans, 2 cases of Warsteiner, and interesting moustaches.

I guess there are no 1980's Cadillacs or Lincolns in the UK
