Hey all. I've just been lurking here and learning as much about the 996 as I can before I buy one (I'm ready when the right one comes).

I've always wondered which cars are widebody and which aren't...

Here's what I've gathered so far (correct me if I'm wrong)...

996 Turbo = widebody
996 C4S = widebody
996 C2 = narrow body
996 Carrera S = ?????
GT3 = ?????
Ruf RGT = ?????

Another question I have is whenever I see people talk about 993's, I always hear them mention "last of the water cooled engines". Is there an advantage to a 993 because of this? What are the major differences between air cooled and water cooled?

Thanks all

 

996 Turbo = widebody
996 C4S = widebody
996 C2 = narrow body
996 Carrera S = no such thing
GT3 = narrow body
Ruf RGT = widebody with flares is optional like RGT RS

 

Here is the RUF car in question....hard to tell if it's widebody or not.

 

that is not. but u get the flares for the RGT RS.

 

You mean like DIZ Arling?

 

vividly correct. now get some volk fried rice.
