Saw a 997 C4S and I just drool
As my rennlist name says, I'm into 993. I love the curves, and the 993 gives me that. However, there is a school teacher at my kids elementary that drives a 997 C4S. (I know, what are they paying these teachers, not enough Im sure). Back to subject. The 997 C4S curves are so impressive. The look is sophisticated, sexy and strong.
My apologies for asking, Im sure its been covered here before. Are all the 997 like the C4S in terms of back-end width. Could I get into say a C2 and get the same shape at a lower price than the C4S? Or is it like the 993, where the S and C4S have the wide-body versus the narrow body of a C2.
I don't won't to open a can of 993 versus 997 driving experience, Im sure they both have their pros, but I had to ask about cosmetics.
Thanks

No. With the introduction of the 997 body style they have adopted two distinct body widths.
ALL of the AWD drive cars are 44mm wider.
Those include obviously the Carrera 4, 4S, Targa, Targa S, Turbo, Turbo S and the 2WD GT3RS, GT2, GTS and Speedster.
All the others (even in S form) are the narrower bodies.
SEE:
Narrow Body
* 996 - width 69.70"
* 997 - width 71.18"
Wide Body
* 996 - width 72.00"
* 997 - width 72.91"
