lots of good points, but at the end of the day, it doesn't appear that the two cars are dynamically very different. The 997 seems to be a more rounded out 996 with some of the rougher edges smoothed. the 997 wins on speed where as the 996 wins on value. Perhaps to really have two completely different 911 experiences, a 997 and a 964 will be the winning combo.

i think the 996 gt3 motor is perfect, the 3.8 will ruin the balance i think

This would be perfection. Car needs another 80hp
