I'm currently selling my 27,500 mile 996 black/black tiptronic for a 2008 997 Carrera or Carrera S. Are the 997's wide hips available on C2 S or just C4 S?

I just drove the 997 at a Beverly Hills Porsche, and the interior seems to be wider than my 996. Are 997 width really wider than 996?

Cheers

Only on 4wd cars

The 997 is "cut" differently than 996, so on a C2 or C2S, the rear looks wider. But the 997 4's actually are wider than C2 / C2S.

I wonder if you can order a 997 C4S widebody with a C2S transmission setup through the special wishes department? Surely you can for a price.

Porsche does what they want to do and sometimes $$ doesn't matter. I don't think they will feel like doing this one!

You can, except it's called a GT3RS or GT2. I believe those are the only RWD wide-bodies presently offered.
Don't know if Porsche would personalize a C2S with a wide body.

You can also get a Ruf RT12 with RWD - it's a widebody too.

The 997 4's have the widest hips. That iinlcudes the 997 Turbos (4's by default).

so you dont need the S for wide hips? just AWD?

Correct.
