The 997.1 coupe analysis is now complete and below are a summary of the production numbers including those with MT, the most popular exterior and interior colors as well as the states that have the most 997.1 coupes for sale. Enjoy!

Something about the lines of it makes it look way bigger, though, and I've never met someone who didn't think the 991 looked "too big" or "bloated" compared to the 997.
